I'm currently trying to install an Nvidia gpu driver but receiving the following error:

king@kingss:~$ sudo apt --fix-broken install
Correcting dependencies... Done 
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libamd-comgr2 libhsa-runtime64-1 libibmad5  libucx0                 nsight-compute-target
  libamdhip64-5 libhsakmt1         libibumad3 linux-image-6.6.9-amd64 nsight-systems-target
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.

Continue anyway? [y/N]

I have tried to check and understand the filesystem using df which obtained the following:

king@kingss:~$ df

tmpfs            3264488     2552   3261936   1% /run/user/1000

The only partition that appears to be at 100% capacity is /dev/nvme1n1p2.

Would resizing this partition enable the installation?

If yes, how would this be done?

Thankyou

/dev/nvme1n1p2 23854928 23790520 0 100% /

This is the line that gives details of your root. It is 100% full. You have spare space on /home and /var, but not your /.

You can adjust your partitions adjust the sizes, or just move some files/delete some files.
