Hi there,
I was cleaning up my old kernels on Ubuntu 22.04; however, I’m unable to remove the following image linux-image-5.15.0-41-generic.
Digging up a bit I realised this image depends on some NVIDIA signatures which seems to be still installed and running, despite a more recent version for them has been installed already. See screenshot below:
The specific signatures are linux-signatures-nvidia-5.15.0-41-generic which show an ii on the left side, is it safe to remove them considering there are also the 5.15.0-46 and 5.15.0-47 installed and running? And if so how can I safely do that?
Hopefully, once done I will be able to clean up this old kernel image and free up some more space. For your information, this is what the sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-5.15.0-41-generic command returns:

Is there anything else I should do? Specifically, I’m not sure about the linux-modules-extra-5.15.0-41-generic and the linux-modules-5.15.0-41-generic, let me know what can I do about this issue. Thanks in advance.
