Ubuntu Update

It is pretty mucn tiring today, after the afternoon presentation at CCTD as well as whole night rush for Harry Potter - The Half Blood Prince. It is the end of the year as well, m rushing on MMU project too. Time fly and it's already 6 months after my graduate from MMU.

I also started to pay PTPTN as well, trying to be a good person, so that the next generation could still get the oppurtuniy to loan and persuade the dream to study in university. Yeah, I believe i KARMA.

It has been month after I got the Ubuntu Breezy CDs from the Blue Whale. I placed most of them in Incubator to let people take it for free, and as expected, it finished within 3 days, not even Mac version leave...I doubt that the one who took it really know what it's as the versioning is written so small down there at the corner of the CD cover. Then, I revisit Whale and ask for more.

With the whole stack of CDs lying on my desk, I decided to take the challenge to upgrade the Operating System, from Hoary to Breezy. You know, people started to affraid of changes when they get older. Who know what will happen during the update process? When so many important data is store here.

The process is amazingly simple and trouble free. I just launch my synaptic package manager and pop the CD in, the next thing i know is the manager telling me that he found the upgrade needed. Then I maked the changes and apply and the upgrade process started.

As everythign is read from the CD, it is fast, less than half an hour. Some popup shown during the process, mostly about asking wheater i wanto keep the old config files or not.

When finished and restart, I prompt with an ugrly login screen. Qucily sign in and found that everything work prefectly. New wallpaper and the sound system still working. I then started to do some tweaking.

I then launched my Firefox but surprised that all the text look like this: ____ Wondering what happens... hmm, must be not fully upgraded. I started to look for my Synaptic Package Manager, but it don't launch nicely. Must be something wrong here, never mind, googling...

From the console I make a force-reinstall to the Synaptic Package and everything now work nicely. I then upgrade my firefox and it look totally normal again.

I also installed Opera browser into it as a secondary browser. The server is now better and strong :)
