| Piraty | https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-upgrading-ubuntu-desktop#1 | 15:38 |
| Piraty | i cannot find that in kubuntu | 15:38 |
| Piraty | ah it's the Muon, yes? | 15:39 |
| Piraty | (i am on 18.04) i switched the version channel to "new version" already, but update to 18.10 is not offered | 15:40 |
| BluesKaj | kubuntu use the KDE/Plasma Desktop. it's not the same as the Ubuntu default desktop called Gnome | 15:43 |
| Piraty | i know | 15:46 |
| Piraty | upgrade instructions advise to use "update-manager -c", which is not present here | 15:47 |
| BluesKaj | open a terminal, sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade | 15:49 |
| Piraty | ok, it downloads nothing from ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic ... | 15:50 |
| Piraty | should i sed 's/bionic/<??>' in /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | what exactly are you trying to do? | 15:51 |
| Piraty | upgrade from 18.04 to 18.10 | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | sudo do-release-upgrade, but turn the LTS only flag off in the discover/muon package manager first | 15:52 |
| Piraty | that i did, let's see | 15:52 |
| hggdh | Piraty: do you understand that 18.10 is only suported for 9 months? And that you will need to upgrade to 19.04 *and* 19.10 to get to the next LTS (20.04)? | 15:53 |
| Piraty | yes | 15:54 |
| Piraty | but it is neccesary now, current 18.04 kernel (4.15) does not recognize the touchpad correctly and i need to hand t his laptop over very soon (christmas, yeah!) | 15:54 |
| Piraty | hggdh: when 18.10 ends support, i can still do-release-upgrade, no? | 15:57 |
| Piraty | to jump on whatever is new then? | 15:57 |
| hggdh | Piraty: yes, and no. You can upgrade from 18.10 to 19.04 *only* | 15:58 |
| Piraty | that is fine, since i want to on an lts channel here, but cannot right now | 16:04 |
| Piraty | (assuming xx.04 is ubuntu-lts always) | 16:04 |
| Piraty | will 19.04 be available when 18.10 is eol? | 16:05 |
| BluesKaj | 19.04 will be available in April , that's what 19.04 means , yr and month | 16:06 |
| Piraty | ah | 16:06 |
| Piraty | so a version is lts when ubuntu declares it to be | 16:07 |
| hggdh | Piraty: LTSs come every 2 years, on even years | 16:07 |
| Piraty | breakage is not to be anticipated i hope? otherwise it wouldn't make sense to me | 16:07 |
| hggdh | so it is 16.04, 18.04, and (next one is) 20.04 | 16:08 |
| Piraty | hggdh: thanks for clarifing the version scheme | 16:08 |
| hggdh | there is no breakage (for a varying definition of "breakage"). upgrades from current LTS to next LTS are supported. Nothing, on the other hand, is guaranteed about the presentation layers | 16:10 |
| hggdh | (meaning they will stay like they were, or not) | 16:10 |
| Piraty | ok, thanks hggdh | 18:16 |
