[19:46] <Ankman> hi
[19:47] <avoine> hello
[19:48] <Ankman> i want to upgrade to the new ubuntu release. but the computer has no display and no keyboard etc. so i access it via ssh...
[19:49] <Ankman> i used 'do-release-upgrade' before, but it always fails as it seem it wants to open an "x-dialog" at some point...
[19:49] <Ankman> and 'do-release-upgrade' seems to have no options. anyway, if i edit the /etc/apt/sources.list, just put the new ubuntu name (version's name) there and run aptitude (update and upgrade). shouldn't that work?
[19:55] <avoine> Ankman: yep that would work
[20:00] <Ankman> ty :-)
[21:21] <Ankman> avoine: well here i go. i'll blame it on you if it fails ;-)
[21:33] <Ankman> nah, doing do-upgrade thing again
[21:33] <Ankman> i exported DISPLAY to ""
[21:33] <Ankman> logged in via ssh, getting
[21:33] <Ankman> Continue running under SSH?
[21:33] <Ankman> This session appears to be running under ssh. It is not recommended
[21:33] <Ankman> to perform a upgrade over ssh currently because in case of failure it
[21:33] <Ankman> is harder to recover.
[21:33] <Ankman> as it's supposed to be
[21:33] <Ankman> wish me luck :-)
