This would only work if the sandwich maker was the passive one in that relationship... otherwise the chair-sitter couldn't use their privileges to get it made. :)

Is sudo a misspelling of pseudo? A play on sudoku? Stupid comic...

I'm pretty sure you can just get tarballs from their site.

I'm sure you're referring to Ubuntu.

Heh, I'm on Ubuntu :D

Only thing that is bugging me is seemingly no NTFS support...

The latest kernel has full NTFS support. Perhaps you should upgrade to 6.10.

It does? I take it that requires an OS reinstall, though, aye? Problem is, I would have to back up the TBird emails, and have to drive to do that too -_-

Although I guess I could upload them to some site or summat...

No, just use the terminal to get updates.

Taken from http://www.debianadmin.com/upgrade-ubuntu-606-dapper-drake-to-ubuntu-1
0-edgy-eft.html

Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list as root. Change every occurrence of dapper to edgy.

Use any prefered editor. If you have a CD-ROM line in your file, then remove it.

sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list

or

use the following Simple command

sudo sed -e &#8217;s/\sdapper/ edgy/g&#8217; -i /etc/apt/sources.list

Now you need to update the source list using the following command

sudo apt-get update

Upgrade using the following command

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Double check your process was finished properly using the following commd

sudo apt-get -f install

sudo dpkg &#8211;configure -a

Now you need to Reboot your machine to take your new ubuntu 6.10 installation to effect all changes.

Linux just released there own flavor of DSL/Ubuntu
I can't remember what it's called but I d/l it and have it on a disk. It was like 600+ mb but they had a torrent link (posted by Linux) so i used that so i could get it faster!
