Hi,

autoremove doesn't work for linux-lowlatency, which IMO is good,
because I want to autoremove unneeded packages, but not necessarily an
old kernel. My guess was, that the OP already run clean and autoremove.

Résumé:

Richard, by all means run

  sudo apt-get clean
  sudo apt-get autoremove

assumed autoremove shouldn't include 8 linux-headers, 5 linux-image and
5 linux-image-extra packages, then also run

  sudo apt-get purge $(dpkg -l linux*|grep -v $(uname -r|sed "s/[[:alpha:]]//g;s/.$//g;s/-/./g")|grep -v base|grep -v firmware|grep ii|cut -d" " -f3)

Regards,
Ralf
