Hi kevinek, I have checked in our repository, package linux-image-4.10.0-23-generic does not exist anymore. (with command "apt-cache search linux-image-4.10.0-23-generic")
The latest kernel package in -release is linux-image-4.10.0-32-generic, so please try to remove that old package and install the new one with: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-4.10.0-23-generic sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic Also, I noticed that you have -proposed enabled in your repository setting, which is for some experimental purpose. So if you are not doing this intentionally, I would suggest you to disable it from the "Software & Update" tool. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1710501 Title: can't open synaptic package manager Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When I try and open synaptic package man.
