It was just more than 2 years ago that I started learning Ubuntu and it was 6.06.
I spent nearly the entire afternoon upgrading to 9.10 via internet
It was done without a glitch.
Ubuntu 9.04
The installer is little prettier and the default font looks a lot better than before. The best news to me is the native support of wireless broadband.
First you add a new connection below then edit it.
then you'll have to amend the APN, don't forget to check the box 'connect automatically'.
You could also follow the wizard below and select from the list of providers available which should pop out by the time you plug in your USB modem.
If you are like me who subscribed to 3reedom then you'll be on your own and don't expect any technical support from them.
I recently went to their shop to ask for help they just keep asking me to dial their customer hotline. A simple quiz below can you tell what number to press to reach their customer service?
I said I couldn't find any from their hotline operation guide above then he gave me a string of numbers.
[Edited: answer to the quiz = press 1 - # - 5 - 8 - 2. In fact # is for non-customer so I wouldn't have thought about trying that route. 1 - # - 5 - 8 would take you to human voice, the guide above is wrong because there is no such thing as 'technical support' from the voice I hear. My conclusion is that if you are existing customers they simply don't care.]
Got a little problem with Tinyau's Tag Cloud plugin after allowing the /user/cache/ folder to be writable. Now it's solved by clearing the old cache in that folder.
I have also moved Karen's and Because I Learn to this new LEMP server. During the WP WXR import I had to change post_max_size and memory_limit in addition to upload_max_filesize in /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini or else I'll get Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted error from WP.
