studio-user697hello18:16
studio-user697I be havin some trouble with upgrade from 16.04 to 1718:17
studio-user697this is what I got in my dmesg18:18
studio-user697[    0.000000] Linux version 4.4.0-92-lowlatency (buildd@lcy01-17) (gcc version  5.4.0 20160609 (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.4) ) #115-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Thu Aug  10 09:53:57 UTC 2017 (Ubuntu 4.4.0-92.115-lowlatency 4.4.76)18:18
studio-user697today i went into software and did a complete update on everything which also listed OS update18:19
studio-user697after rebooting, my DMESG is still the same18:19
studio-user697what did I miss?18:19
studio-user697software updater says:   The Software on this computer is UP TO DATE18:22
krytarik!upgradeofflts | studio-user69718:23
ubottustudio-user697: To upgrade from an LTS release of Ubuntu to the next (non-LTS) release, run sudoedit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and change the prompt= line to "prompt=normal". Then, do sudo do-release-upgrade to begin the upgrade.18:23
studio-user697ok thanks that was informative18:24
krytarikYou are welcome.18:24
studio-user697i was jsut looking at Long Term vs non-LTS18:25
studio-user697and I dont knwo that I NEED to upgrade but I have been getting some repeat system errors18:25
studio-user697I am concerned that the upgrade to 17 might Break something18:25
studio-user697having annoyances with VLC crashing and far too aftern the delayed response after a mouse click to open a menu or soemthing has become rather annoying aswell18:27
studio-user697I would like to know if any hardware support was dropped from 16 to 1718:28
krytarikJust try with a Live image if everything works still.18:28
studio-user697and is there any significant changes to software being used like the file manager or Window Manger or Desktop Manage18:29
studio-user697thats a good idea to run a live dvd for a bit.18:30
studio-user697but it is very time consuming18:30
studio-user697having reviewed the change log I see that file manger repalced with THUNAR is having some annoyances and so is Parole18:41
studio-user697SO I think I will try and wait till january for LTS upgrade18:42
OvenWerksstudio-user697: it is unlikely that the file manager or media player will change for the next LTS18:48
OvenWerksThunar has been a part of Studio for a few years now since nautilus has been reduced in functionality.18:49
OvenWerksThe gnome media player seems to break every other release.18:50
OvenWerksHowever, the idea of having a choice is that the user can install whatever filemanager/media player(s) <add list here> they enjoy using.18:51
studio-user697thank you OvenWerks19:11
studio-user697I wonder is it viable to run two different file manager? like I have 3 media palyers that I run simultaneously, parole, VLC and SMPlayer19:13
OvenWerksof course, you can run more than one file manager. The desktop will continue to be thunar... maybe ask on #xubuntu how to change that part.20:35
