Ubuntu 9.04

The new Ubuntu release is scheduled to come on out on April 23th 2009.

To upgrade from Ubuntu 8.10 on a desktop system, press Alt+F2 and type in “update-manager -d” (without the quotes) into the command box. Update Manager should open up and tell you: New distribution release ‘9.04’ is available. Click Upgrade and follow the on-screen instructions.

 

To upgrade from Ubuntu 8.10 on a server system: install the update-manager-core package if it is not already installed; edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set Prompt=normal; launch the upgrade tool with the command sudo do-release-upgrade; and follow the on-screen instructions.

 

The SysCP Team has released version 1.4.1 of their
well known Server Control Panel software.
Some features have been added ( Autoresponders – Customer can view bandwidth – Mailbox Quota Limit )
but it seems that some new features are still bugging ( Automatic Package Setup ).
However the team does a good job and SysCP remains free of charge !
