Upgrade to Linux Mint Olivia

Posted 06-02-2013 at 05:02 PM by bhupendra

The upgrade from Nadia (Mint 14) to Olivia (Mint 15) did not work. Had to do a fresh install. That meant having to reinstall all the software and Cairo-dock.

With sadness I had to bid goodbye to Ubuntu 12.10. No, it was not Unity, because I quite liked it.
Just that applications began crashing once too often. When this became a constant irritation, the nearest I could think of was Mint. So for now sorry Ubuntu.
I also managed to install Arch Linux on a dual boot with Linux Mint. I tested the installation procedure as described in the Arch Wiki in Virtual Box first. After a few misfires I managed to get it right. Then I backed up all data...

My website: www.bhupendra.me.uk
On my website I have my CV, more importantly, I have

I also hope to write about My diabetes type 2.

Upgrade to Natty Narwhal aka Ubuntu 11.04

Posted 06-30-2011 at 07:42 AM by bhupendra

The upgrade to Natty did go smoothly, but Unity
was broken. Had to do a fresh install. Everything
works now. There has been a lot of controversy
regarding Ubuntu's move to Unity. As far as I am concerned,

Upgrade to Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat

Posted 11-08-2010 at 12:54 PM by bhupendra

The upgrade to Maverick went smoothly. I quite like the Meerkat. Following all the excitement about Fedora 14 Gnome, I installed it in the Virtual Box. The problem was that it kept crashing after installing the guest additions. It seems there is a bug somewhere. So I have trashed it for now. Ubuntu is just fine. I have managed to install peppermint 2010 on some friends' pcs and laptops, to replace winxp. They are not computer literate but were quite impressed. If they keep on using Linux, I shall...
