You should use Ubuntu 14.04. It currently uses the 3.13 kernel series.
Be aware that your desktop version may not be the same if your desktop is a 32-bit machine and the server is a 64-bit machine (or vice versa). Also, kernel versions are updated as part of the Ubuntu software maintenance process - You might install a certain kernel version and this can be upgraded as part of the maintenance process.
