<br>> the nice updates in edgy are not available for dapper. And I wanted to<br>> do some debugging for edgy.<br>><br>> I am a pretty advanced user of linux and have a lot of program's and<br>> scripts installed.
<br>><br>> I first tried edgy on my vmware system and it did work. so i give it a<br>> try. I made a dd image for backup if things went wrong.<br>><br>> I want to command line mode so i killed gdm en x
<br>><br>> sudo apt-get update<br>> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop<br>> sudo apt-get disk-upgrade<br>><br>> Then I configured the apt-get sources for edgy.<br>><br>> sudo apt-get update
<br>> sudo apt-get disk-upgrade<br>><br>> Here we went. Downloaded a lot of stuff > 1GB and started installing<br>><br>> I noticed that I recieved a lot of errors of these:<br>> "perl: warning please check local settings"
<br>> I think this had to do with the fact that te program that sets the local<br>> settings was not run yet. later when the this program was run the<br>> warnings disappear. So someone could fix this "bug" by first setting
<br>> local language settings for upgrading.<br>><br>> Then it happens the apt-get gives a error and quits<br>><br>> the error was in this package:<br>> anjunta-2.0.2-2ubuntu1_i386.deb<br>
><br>> when I retried sudo apt-get disk-upgrade it advised me to run apt-get -f<br>> install so I did and it when on. after that i did a apt-get disk-upgrade<br>> again and it when further.<br>>
<br>> I got a warnings that there is something wrong with font gs.defoma line<br>> 108. someone could check that.<br>><br>><br>> When apt-get tried to restart mysql after upgrading something it hangs i
<br>> waited 15 minutes and tryied some key combinations but the pc was dead.<br>><br>> I restarted the pc and the default kernel was broken and did not start.<br>><br>> I tried another kernel and got it to run single mode with lot of errors.
<br>> I restarted the apt-get disk-upgrade command<br>><br>> I got a error again and apt-get exits it was a error in the<br>> gtk-engines-eazel.<br>><br>> I concluded that this was not working. and wanted to restore my backup
<br>><br>> so i tried a dd to restore my image (dd image is stored on another<br>> partion) but after a while the system was hanging again and I had to<br>> restart.<br>><br>> Now grub was totally down it gives me a error 16 code and does nothing.
<br>><br>> I had not get burned a xubuntu 6.10 cd for a total clean install so i<br>> had to go to another pc and burn a alternate disk.<br>><br>> When I tried to load the kernel on the 6.10 alternate cd I got error:
<br>> apci kernel panic - not syncing.<br>><br>> I can remember this is the same error I got when I tried the a self<br>> compiled kernel, the newest from <a href="http://kernel.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
kernel.org</a>
<<a href="http://kernel.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://kernel.org</a>>.<br>> There is a bug somewhere<br>> with the new kernels and the via epia en12000 hardware.
<br>><br>> I did not get tried to start the kernel with options like pci=noacpi and
<br>> acpi=off. I will do that another time.<br>><br>> So far edgy experiences are very bad. Could some one please remove the<br>> fact from the <a href="http://xubuntu.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
xubuntu.org</a> <<a href="http://xubuntu.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
http://xubuntu.org</a>> website that a dapper<br>> to edgy upgrade will go<br>> fine and give only advice for fresh installs.<br>><br>> I have spend a half a day for this and don't feel for making bug reports
<br>> other than this somebody other than me has to do that.<br>><br>> Hope edgy will improve in the future or do I have to wait 6 months for<br>> the next release? Keep up the good work btw.<br>
