Ubuntu
software-center package

Is there an easy way to upgrade 10.04 to 10.10 without writing code commands?

Asked by Jerome (Jerry) Steven Faigin on 2011-01-16

I'm disabled and my patience is limited. I just want to turn something on and let it work.

Same problem is similar with Adobe products too. My day has been nothing but a big headache and my pain pills only work so well.

Thank you for your time and help with the desk & laptops without the Microsoft virus!

Sincerely,
Jerome S. Faigin (Jerry)

Command line is not hard, you need 3 commands and it will work....

gksudo gedit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades

Change:
Prompt=lts
To:
Prompt=normal

Save the file and close gedit, then run:

sudo apt-get install update-manager-core; sudo do-release-upgrade

Then it will upgrade. Simple

Can you expand on your "Adobe Products" issue too.

Thanks
