@Desmataks, This is the correct command to upgrade to Ubuntu Edgy Eft:

$ gksu "update-manager -c"

The -d switch is not needed for final release!!

desmataks, you have added some third party repository cypherpunk.org which seems to be down at the moment. Please disable that repo from synaptic and try upgrading/updating again.

JGuru, apt-get dist-upgrade also works like charm.. that's the debian way to do it

@GNUrag, You are right. apt-get dist-upgrade is the Debian way of doing things. For that command to work, you need to edit the file '/etc/apt/sources.list'
& change the occurence of the word 'dapper' to 'edgy' & save the file. & run
the following commands:

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Default Re: plz help me in upgrading to ubuntu 6.10

when i use this
$ gksu "update-manager -c -d"
a new window opens and there is wrtitten a message "upgrade to 6.10 edy ubutu" and a upgrade is button is provided

but when i use this
$ gksu "update-manager -c"

no upgrade info and button is provided so how to upgrade without that button..


i will try apt-get command after replacing dapper word by edgy.
