Every time I log in to my laptop remotely, I get a message telling me to restart immediately because Livepatch has patched vulnerabilities:
Welcome to Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.15.0-84-generic x86_64)
- Documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com
- Management: https://landscape.canonical.com
- Support: https://ubuntu.com/advantage
Expanded Security Maintenance for Applications is enabled.
0 updates can be applied immediately.
*** Livepatch has fixed kernel vulnerabilities. System restart recommended on the closest maintenance window ***
This is after I have restarted the machine.
How can I prevent this message from appearing every time on login?
I have followed the response given here to ensure all packages are updated: Livepatch Behaviour and restart in, but still get the message on remote login.
I am not running the latest version of the kernel as it causes issues with the graphics: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS GUI does not work with 5.15.0-88-generic
EDIT: I also get the notification on login to the GUI that "Livepatch: An update has just been applied.", every time.
EDIT: I checked the scripts in /etc/update-motd.d, and have the following:
.@.:/etc/update-motd.d$ sudo /snap/bin/canonical-livepatch refresh
[sudo] password for .:
