Anyone know how to delete super boot manager from Zorin?
sudo apt remove super-boot-manager or sudo apt purge super-boot-manager or Synaptic
I have tried both these commands, and Synaptic
Out come:
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?
Synaptic:
The repository 'Index of /ingalex/super-boot-manager/ubuntu bionic Release' does not have a Release file.
What next?
Hi carmar. Tried this, hereās the result

So not much luck there. Iām having ongoing problems with this installation of Zorin, it just doesnāt seem compatible with Lenovo Ideapad S145 hardware. For instance, it wonāt run the Xforce panel app, Microsoft Word app on Wine in or download other apps, so Iām going to load lite instead of core.
Thanks!
Run sudo dpkg --configure -a
Then try the removal commands again.
The warnings can be ignored. You were supposed to put a process ID for the kill command but since no ID came out from the prior commands, it doesnāt matter. The rm commands succeeded so you just have to retry the removal commands.

When attempting to use other sudo in terminal, this repeatedly appears in the 2nd to last line:
Ign:6 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ingalex/super-boot-manager/ubuntu bionic InRelease
The package is already uninstalled.
To remove the repository, use:
sudo ppa-purge ppa:ingalex/super-boot-manager
then sudo apt update
Hi Carmar. I have run those commands, however now when trying to install the proton vpn this is the result in the scripts:

As you can see the ingalex launch pad is well and truly stuck in there.
The whole terminal script is as follows:

Thanks for your help.
Go to System -> Software Updater -> wait for it to check for updates and then click the Settings button when it stops. In the new window, click the Other Software tab, scroll to find the ingalex repository and click the Remove button in the bottom area of that window.
