[07:48] <studio-user279> im curious about what kind of issues people aer having after they have completed the 17.04 update
[18:16] <studio-user697> hello
[18:17] <studio-user697> I be havin some trouble with upgrade from 16.04 to 17
[18:18] <studio-user697> this is what I got in my dmesg
[18:18] <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)
[18:19] <studio-user697> today i went into software and did a complete update on everything which also listed OS update
[18:19] <studio-user697> after rebooting, my DMESG is still the same
[18:19] <studio-user697> what did I miss?
[18:22] <studio-user697> software updater says:   The Software on this computer is UP TO DATE
[18:23] <krytarik> !upgradeofflts | studio-user697
[18:23] <ubottu> studio-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.
[18:24] <studio-user697> ok thanks that was informative
[18:24] <krytarik> You are welcome.
[18:25] <studio-user697> i was jsut looking at Long Term vs non-LTS
[18:25] <studio-user697> and I dont knwo that I NEED to upgrade but I have been getting some repeat system errors
[18:25] <studio-user697> I am concerned that the upgrade to 17 might Break something
[18:27] <studio-user697> having 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 aswell
[18:28] <studio-user697> I would like to know if any hardware support was dropped from 16 to 17
[18:28] <krytarik> Just try with a Live image if everything works still.
[18:29] <studio-user697> and is there any significant changes to software being used like the file manager or Window Manger or Desktop Manage
[18:30] <studio-user697> thats a good idea to run a live dvd for a bit.
[18:30] <studio-user697> but it is very time consuming
[18:41] <studio-user697> having reviewed the change log I see that file manger repalced with THUNAR is having some annoyances and so is Parole
[18:42] <studio-user697> SO I think I will try and wait till january for LTS upgrade
[18:48] <OvenWerks> studio-user697: it is unlikely that the file manager or media player will change for the next LTS
[18:49] <OvenWerks> Thunar has been a part of Studio for a few years now since nautilus has been reduced in functionality.
[18:50] <OvenWerks> The gnome media player seems to break every other release.
[18:51] <OvenWerks> However, the idea of having a choice is that the user can install whatever filemanager/media player(s) <add list here> they enjoy using.
[19:11] <studio-user697> thank you OvenWerks
[19:13] <studio-user697> I wonder is it viable to run two different file manager? like I have 3 media palyers that I run simultaneously, parole, VLC and SMPlayer
[20:35] <OvenWerks> of 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.
