<div class="moz-cite-prefix">My Acer 1410 (64 bit, 4G ram) ran
Ubuntu 10.04 nicely, but 12.04 and Unity were too much that I
didn't need. Xubuntu 12.04 is running nicely and hosts a major
project of mine. Nonetheless, this upgrade thread makes me
curious. What is the minimal way to update to some of 12.10?
Perhaps utech or someone else could elaborate - eg, how to install
the PPAs utech mentioned.<br>

<pre wrap="">12.10 has XFCE 4.10, 12.04 has 4.8. I installed the PPA for XFCE 4.10
on my wifes 12.04 system and it works fine. The main difference I saw
was that changing backgrounds automatically is now built in to the
desktop settings, which she loved.
I also installed the PPA for LibreOffice, so it has the up to date
packages she needs but the stability of LTS.
I want to standardize all the systems at home on LTS so I only have to
update every 2 years at the soonest. I let them get out of sync so
each one was at a different version which made the use of
squid-deb-proxy useless.
