I reinstalled Gutsy on partition #2 of machine #2 Machine #2 is: Dell D610 refer to "Configuation logs from crashed system" for lspci -vvnn, configuration, etc.
I left partition #2 of machine #2 in the default Gutsy configuration and upgraded to Hardy today without problem. I do modify my xorg.conf file because my touchpad is too sluggish. This is the mod: Option "MinSpeed" "1" Here is the appropriate section of the xorg.conf file: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "0" Option "MinSpeed" "1" This mod was applied to the old partition #2 before the aborted upgrade. It was applied to the new partition #2 after installing Hardy this time. I included this in case it might be relevant. I filed a typical Hardware Testing report that notes the need for this mod. -- update manager crashed while updating from Gutsy to Heron https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
