    I just did the upgrade just now, and so far so good. A little slow trying to do final clean-up of old unused packages (saw there was multiple instances of python3 going on), but no hiccups anyhow.

      Just upgraded yesterday, and the only bug is now the external display seems to set itself to the default screen size of the laptop (1600x900) instead of the monitors screen size (1366x768) Weird thing is, the Plymouth splash screen is 1366x768, then when it switches to the LightDM login window, that's when it switches.

      Other than that, I like it, really I do!

        I did the upgrade on two computers. The older computer was done in a hour and a half. The second computer took less than a hour. Both computers are running great with out any problems.

          My system still hasnt realized that it can be updated. I have received no notification and none of the Muon programs are telling me that a distribution upgrade is available. I checked in Software Sources and its supposed to tell me when all releases are available. Hmmm....

            I'd just go into /etc/sources.list, replace all "raring" to "saucy", and then go
            Code:
            sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (-y)
            (The -y allows you to skip the prompt to go ahead with the upgrade or not). This is exactly what I did when I had trouble getting the upgrade going through the GUI.

              You'll also want to replace "raring" to "saucy" in any 'standard' repository list files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

              I say 'standard' meaning any recognized *buntu ppas such as:

              kubuntu-ppa-backports.list
              kubuntu-ppa-beta.list
              kubuntu-ppa-ppa.list

              If you have any other .list files there, you will need to comment them out so they won't be utilized during the upgrade. Once upgraded to Saucy and you've rebooted, you can uncomment them. If any of those specify raring, change to saucy. Then run:
              Code:
              sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

                Just attempted the upgrade....problems... It seems that some of my packages are still looking for the old repos.

                sudo dpkg --audit

                What can I do about this?

                  Think I got it. I went through and purged all the packages with dependency problems then ran apt-get install -f and it ran without issue. I updated again and then ran the dist-upgrade command a second time. Its going along smoothly now. Fingers crossed

                  EDIT: Second dpkg failure. Same types of errors but a lot more of them. Corrected them the same way and proceeded again. I dont have high hopes for a successful upgrade at this point

                  EDIT #2: More dpkg failures. Its now stuck with setting up Muon.
                  Code:
                  Setting up muon (2.0.65+git20131008-0ubuntu4) ...
                  Another update is already running: showing its progress.
                  My internet searches have led me to the conclusion that xapian is supposed to be indexing, but I dont think it is. I have no status indicator, no background processes and after letting it sit for an hour, nothing has changed. Maybe its time to start drinking....

                    So....it kind of worked. lsb_release shows that I have Ubuntu 13.10, but I seem to be missing all the KDE upgrades that are supposed to come with this release. I looked at the 13.10 features hereand I dont have any. My user management screen is the same as before, wireless is totally different than described, there is no About System page in the system settings etc... Whats going on here?

                      Any reason not to be running your server on 12.04?

                        Yes. I had already upgraded it to 12.10 before I found out that I wanted to stay on the long term releases. Once I get to 14.04, I'll park it there until 16.04
                        I do not personally use Kubuntu, but I'm the tech support for my daughter who does.

                          Ah ok. Makes sense. Ubuntu does exceptionally good LTS servers.
