Public bug reported:

New kernel version = LOTS OF PROBLEMS

Problem with the driver of my Realtek Wifi card    (this is a new
laptop).

I got to find and install (compile for the kernek version) the driver
for this card, and both system and wireless card they were working fine,
but then Xenial, made the  proposal to make a packages update, and then
began all my problems.


New kernel version among them = LOTS OF PROBLEMS

PROBLEM WITH THE PACKAGE Linux Image
The system itself proposed me to remove/eliminate some old packages like old 
kernels (headers and linux images). But in order to remove the package package 
linux-image-extra-4.10.0-28-generic 4.10.0-28.32~16.04.2 it lasts several 
hours, and still was just in the 68% percent of the process.
When tired of waitind I decided to manually cancel it.
But some processes still remained in memory, so I had to kill them.

And now the error/fail persists.

So what can I do now to remove this package from the system?

How can I manage in order not to have to compile wireless card driver
for every new kernel version?

I think I will remove this Ubuntu 16.04 and I'm going to install new 18.04 LTS.
And will be the end of my problems.

Kind regards
