Re: Lubuntu : One month later

Good question about upgrade process! After years on Lubuntu 12.04 as updated from time to time, I was more than hankering for a decent kernel upgrade and leapt at 14-04 LTS as soon as it was released. There were several major inconveniences which I had to learn workarounds for which were ma
