There was a warning in the stop start boot up, along with copious

I temporarily fixed the problem by rebooting to the previous kernel,but
in investigating came across this oddity in the naming of my
installed kernels


user@system: dpkg --list | grep linux-image
rc  linux-image-5.10.0-6-amd64                    5.10.28-1
             amd64        Linux 5.10 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
rc  linux-image-5.10.0-7-amd64                    5.10.40-1
          amd64        Linux 5.10 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
rc  linux-image-5.10.0-8-amd64                    5.10.46-5
          amd64        Linux 5.10 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
rc  inux-image-5.10.0-9-amd64                    5.10.70-1
          amd64        Linux 5.10 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
ii  linux-image-5.14.0-0.bpo.2-amd64              5.14.9-2~bpo11+1
          amd64        Linux 5.14 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
ii  linux-image-5.15.0-0.bpo.2-amd64              5.15.5-2~bpo11+1
          amd64        Linux 5.15 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
ii  linux-image-5.15.0-0.bpo.3-amd64              5.15.15-2~bpo11+1
          amd64        Linux 5.15 for 64-bit PCs (signed)
ii   linux-image-amd64

Looking for clubies on why the last image doesn't fit the pattern, and
the best way to purge it.

I wouldn't know about your graphics card not being done with previous commands (maybe a driver update?), but isn't linux-image-amd64 a meta-package? It doesn't contain anything but requires the most recent version of the kernel package (in your case linux-image-5.15.0-0.bpo.3-amd64), and when the kernel version is upgraded, the package itself doesn't change versions but the requirement does change.
