| dennis81 | Hi all, I've run into an issue while testing ubuntu 23.10 with an issue that removing an old kernel won't succeed. I have looked to find bug reports, but on this kernel there can't be much found. I have tried the usual stuff. Can I ask for help here? | 06:58 |

| dennis81 | I normally don't use any other kernels so I think it might be a bug in 23.10, but it might be from the pre-beta period so it might be an anomally | 07:08 |
| guiverc | Ubuntu mantic is using the 6.5 kernel (not 6.2), and prior to 6.5 used 6.3; you likely manually installed it dennis81 ; are you using a (month+) old install media; I'd suggest using current media | 07:41 |
| guiverc | dennis81, ^ | 07:41 |
| dennis81 | thank you for you reaction. I think I installed 23.04 and upgraded to 23.10, that would explain the 6.2 kernel. | 08:18 |
| knstn | I updated to 23.10 and every time I login, I got a notification = "Software Update Installed: An important OS update has been installed" | 09:41 |
| knstn | I have deleted "/var/lib/PackageKit/transactions.db" and repaired PackageKit, but I get the notification every time. | 09:41 |
| PaulW2U | knstn: I think that a known bug you're seeing: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/2024392 | 09:50 |
| -ubottu:#ubuntu-next- Launchpad bug 2024392 in gnome-software (Ubuntu) "Gnome-software displays notification about OS upgrade on each boot" [Undecided, Confirmed] | 09:50 | |
| dennis81 | is there any way I can get this kernel out of 23.10? It's locking up apt every time. | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | dennis81: can you show what this looks like? | 10:50 |
| tomreyn | (on a pastebin) | 10:51 |
| tomreyn | also show your attempts to remove it and the output given there. | 10:51 |
| tomreyn | (generally, i'd second what has been said on doing a fresh install, however) | 10:53 |
| dennis81 | yes, I know a reinstall will do the trick. I have 2 installs on my laptop exactly for this purpose as after ~2 upgrades the system becomes borky.. But if I can fix this, i can delay that process for another while and go for 24.04. | 11:44 |
| dennis81 | if i run apt upgrade, the first two messages give me: | 11:44 |
| dennis81 | etc/grub.d/proxifiedScripts/linux: 1: version_find_latest: not found | 11:44 |
| dennis81 | dpkg: error processing package memtest86+ (--configure): | 11:44 |
| dennis81 | installed memtest86+ package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127 | 11:45 |
| dennis81 | it ends with: | 11:45 |
| dennis81 | /etc/grub.d/proxifiedScripts/linux: 1: version_find_latest: not found | 11:45 |
| dennis81 | dpkg: error processing package memtest86+ (--configure): | 11:45 |
| dennis81 | installed memtest86+ package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127 | 11:45 |
| dennis81 | Errors were encountered while processing: | 11:45 |
| dennis81 | memtest86+ | 11:46 |
| dennis81 | plymouth-theme-kubuntu-logo | 11:46 |
| dennis81 | grub-pc | 11:46 |
| dennis81 | grub2 | 11:46 |
| dennis81 | linux-image-6.2.0-21-generic | 11:46 |
| dennis81 | linux-image-6.5.0-5-generic | 11:46 |
| dennis81 | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 11:46 |
| tomreyn | dennis81: the first thing to fix would be the grub script and the memtest86+ package (just reinstalling it may help) | 15:55 |
| dennis81 | I tried, reinstalling (apt) and reconfiguring (dpkg --configure) grub-pc/grub2. I think there are references to that 6.2.0-21 kernel | 17:35 |
| dennis81 | reinstalling memtest86+ gives: | 17:38 |
| dennis81 | dpkg: error processing package memtest86+ (--configure): | 17:38 |
| dennis81 | and gives eventually the same error as above, so for the memtest, plymouth, grub-pc, grub2, etc. | 17:39 |
| howarth | Is anyone else finding the the Help application in Mantic produces empty windows under the nvidia-driver-535 video drivers when running X11? If I switch the login to use Wayland, the Help application displays its content as expected. | 21:11 |
| howarth | It seems like a rather awkward bug considering the Ubuntu still defaults the nvidia drivers to use X11. | 21:12 |
