Re: Lubuntu 13.10 is Released !!

Thank you Lubuntu team. I just successfully used the upgrade install to change my Ubuntu Gnome 13.04 machine to Lubuntu 13.10. Not a single issue! On Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:27:41 -0500 David Yentzen wrote: ... -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubs
