Xubuntu upgrade

[Arthur Johnson]

pat,

you fill be fine.  xubuntu, lubuntu, kubuntu, ubuntu are all the same
distro.  it will recognize the packages u have installed and upgrade
everything.  I've had all installed at the same time before, in fact.

the difference is just what is loaded by default.  all the ubuntus
co-exist without problems.
