| hmir | Hey guys. I have xubuntu 14.10. I've have heard that upgrading 14.10 to 16.04 is a huge hassle, and that I may have to upgrade first to 15.04 and then from 15.04 to 16.04. Is this accurage? | 05:54 |
|---|---|---|
| hmir | I would prefer a clean insstall, but the cdrom drive on my laptop is faulty, and the laptop BIOS is old, does not support booting from USB. So, I would prefer to upgrade the release from within the OS. Any advice/recommendation? | 05:54 |

| xubuntu34w | hello | 14:32 |
| xubuntu34w | i have a question | 14:32 |
| xubuntu34w | since the last update yesterday a lot off things are gone, wifi does not work anymore, the main menu is changed, the panel is changed,.. | 14:34 |
| xubuntu34w | anyone else had this experience ? | 14:34 |
| xubuntu34w | xubuntu 16.04 lts 64bit | 14:39 |
| GridCube | xubuntu34w: in the grub stage you could choose a previous kernel image and see if that fixes things | 14:45 |
| GridCube | you can also run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop --reinstall and see if that fixes stuff | 14:46 |
| GridCube | you can also go to your home folder and rename .config to .config-old and relog, all your config files should be recreated | 14:46 |
| xubuntu34w | i have created a new user and there things looking normal | 14:55 |
| xubuntu34w | i use etckeeper for "global configs" is there a simular tool for user home folders ? | 14:56 |
| xubuntu34w | <GridCube> if i recreate configs: does this reset my custom settings to default, so i have to do them again ? | 14:59 |
| GridCube | yes | 15:00 |
| GridCube | if you just rename the folder your custom setting are still there, uyou can restore them one by one and see if one breaks things | 15:00 |
| xubuntu34w | <GridCube> ok thanks, will try that, but i am curious why this happens in the first place and how to protect against in the future | 15:05 |
| GridCube | it shouldnt happen | 15:05 |
| GridCube | i've upgraded the last 4 years and it never happened so i can't tell you why it happened to you | 15:06 |
| xubuntu34w | <GridCube> xfce panel switch gave me the back the main menu by use: "modern settings", and now also wifi connection works, only some panel items are missing but that's not a big deal | 15:19 |
| GridCube | :) | 15:20 |
| GridCube | thats good, you can always save your panel using switch and restore them later if you want | 15:20 |
| xubuntu34w | yes, only thing i don't understand is: current settings | 15:21 |
| xubuntu34w | by the way it would be relay useful to have something like etckeeper for home folders | 15:23 |
| xubuntu34w | unfortunatly i have not enough experience to handcraft a .gitignore for that | 15:24 |
| xubuntu34w | <GridCube> thanks for your help | 15:27 |
| GridCube | de nada | 15:27 |
| GridCube | :) hope things are working correctly now | 15:27 |
