    Fixing or removing packages, broken pipe Ubuntu 11.10

    About 2 weeks ago the update manager popped up and I just updated all the recommended packages like I usually do.
    But for some reason this time something went wrong.
    Whenever I try to use the 3.0.0-29, my screen resolution is all messed up.
    What's worse however is that I can't update software anymore or install new software.
    I have managed to ignore the problem for a while (by using .28), but I would really like to fix it now.

    I should explicitly mention that 3.0.0-29 failed to install properly.

    What error message(s) do you get when trying to update/install the kernel or other software?

    Code:
    De afhankelijkheden van de volgende pakketten konden niet geïnstalleerd worden:
    
    linux-headers-3.0.0-29-generic: Depends: linux-headers-3.0.0-29 maar het is niet geïnstalleerd
    linux-headers-generic-pae: Depends: linux-headers-3.0.0-30-generic-pae maar het is niet geïnstalleerd
    Not sure how to change the language of these error messages, but it shouldn't be a problem for you.

    Basically I can't install the dependencies and I also get broken pipe and BrokenCount>0 messages.
    Also no space left on device messages , but I have atleast 500mb and according to Gparted I have 1.1 GiB on / left, so I doesn't really make sense to me.

    As far as the no space on device, do you have a separate /boot partition ? Is your /boot partition full ?

    I don't think I have a separate boot partition.
    Gparted shows only a / and /Home mountpoint, if that is sufficient to tell.

    Nothing obvious, try

    Code:
    sudo apt-get clean
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
    Post any error messages you get (entire text please).

    The first didn't seem to do anything, the second returned no error messages.

    The third returns this:

    Code:
    Pakketlijsten worden ingelezen... Klaar
    Boom van afhankelijkheden wordt opgebouwd       
    Statusinformatie wordt gelezen... Klaar  
    U kunt 'apt-get -f install' uitvoeren om dit op te lossen.
    De volgende pakketten hebben niet-voldane vereisten:
     linux-headers-3.0.0-29-generic : Vereisten: linux-headers-3.0.0-29 maar het is niet geïnstalleerd
     linux-headers-generic-pae : Vereisten: linux-headers-3.0.0-30-generic-pae maar het is niet geïnstalleerd
    E: Er zijn vereisten waaraan niet voldaan is. Probeer -f te gebruiken.
    Pakketlijsten=Packetlists
    Boom van afhankelijkheden=Tree of dependencies

    11GB is small for a root partition (95% full!), I'd make it twice as big if possible.
