Greetings all,
I'm just writing to find out how people have gone with their Oneric Oncelot upgrade.
The upgrade failed on one of my PCs because there wasn't enough free disk space. It wanted about 2 Gb, but the machine only has a 10 Gb drive and has about 1.7 Gb free. There is almost no data on this machine as it is mainly used as a VNC client and for web browsing. I guess I could do some pruning, but it's probably easier to get a bigger drive.
I did some pruning, removed a few old kernel images and some games that no-one plays and the upgrade succeeded. So far I haven't noticed any problems, except that the desktop is now different. I assume it's unity, which I also assume is a feature not a bug :-). This probably won't be a problem, the other users of this machine (wife and daughter) have not complained yet, but I was surprised by the change because in the previous release unity had not worked at all so I had set it to use the gnome desktop. I didn't expect the upgrade to override that setting. Glenn -- Glenn Ramsey <glenn(a)componic.co.nz> 09 9735603 http://www.componic.co.nz
