Intrepid (8.10) uses 2.6.27 :) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidIbex/TechnicalOverview#Linux%20kernel%202.6.27
To purge the kernel you can use Synaptic or a Terminal: in Synaptic, look for linux-headers-2.6.24-22-generic, linux-image-2.6.24-22-generic and linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-22-generic; click on the green square near them and select "Mark for complete removal" (or something similar - I use Italian version and that's the nearest translation I can think about - It's the last option, though). Reboot and then start your Update Manager from System > Administration > Update Manager; update repos and it will ask you to install the new kernel; you can also reinstall it from Synaptic. The other way is: from a Terminal, launch "sudo apt-get purge linux- headers-2.6.24-22-generic linux-image-2.6.24-22-generic linux- restricted-modules-2.6.24-22-generic" (without quotes). You will be prompted for your password; enter it and, when it's finished, reboot. At reboot, GRUB won't give you (obviously) the "Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-22-generic" option; boot with the other kernel and you'll be done :) -- 8.04 blinking caps lock on bootup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309311 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
