feisty -> gutsy upgrade failure

[Billie Walsh]

I said yesterday that I had upgraded to Gutsy without any problems. 
Well.......I thought I had, but.....................

I missed a step in the adept upgrade. I tried it yesterday morning. It 
didn't configure the video properly. All I got a a black screen with a 
message from my monitor that the settings weren't supported. I seemed 
sort of ticked off about it to.

I know there was probably some simple CLI way to correct this but not 
being CLI friendly about my only option was to do a fresh install. [ In 
SuSE I could just run sax2 from the command line and set it up but 
(K)Ubuntu doesn't have sax2 ] Anyway, that's where I am this morning on 
my desktop.

The laptop stalled just after the download and before anything was 
installed. The computer wasn't locked up, just the updater wouldn't 
function. The laptop still runs Feisty just fine EXCEPT I can't use 
Adept in any form. The update program has the database locked. When I 
rebooted the laptop it tried to restart the upgrade program but said 
some file was missing. I'm thinking a fresh install is the option of 
choice here.  The laptop is no big deal as it doesn't have all that much 
on it to start with.

Anyway, the upgrade did NOT go well from the Adept Upgrade way of doing it.
