This red icon showed up after installing Ubuntu 20.04 on my Nvidia GPU desktop; I can't figure out how to solve this problem. It seems to be a notification thing. Here is the icon:
I think it has unmet dependencies.
I tried to run sudo apt upgrade, I got the following error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-image-oem-20.04b : Depends: linux-image-5.10.0-1049-oem but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
When I run sudo apt autoremove, I get the following error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.

I also tried running sudo apt-get -f install and the issue still isn't solved, the following is the output of that command:

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
libfprint-2-tod1 libllvm10 linux-headers-5.10.0-1044-oem linux-headers-oem-20.04 linux-image-oem-20.04 linux-modules-5.10.0-1044-oem linux-oem-5.10-headers-5.10.0-1044
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following additional packages will be installed:
linux-image-5.10.0-1049-oem
Suggested packages:
fdutils linux-oem-5.10-tools
The following NEW packages will be installed:
