Upgrading From Ubuntu 13.04 to Saucy Salamander

Hi Reese

Now that the beta release is upon us, it's time to reconsider downloading and installing the developmental version of Ubuntu which is now "saucy salamander". This will become Ubuntu 13.10 on October 17th 2013.

I decided to use the terminal. I googled the how to and I don't think the gui method works now.

My terminal started properly. With my internet connection speed, It would take more than an hour to download 831 MB of image.

So see you on the other side.

Appindicator In Natty Ubuntu 11.04

Previously ranted about the blind alley Ubuntu 11.04 seemed to be leading us when it comes to some applications not being ready yet for the dropping of system tray. What I should have done is press on. There are posts about editing a white list with a recommended GUI tool to help us out here , here and here . Like everything in Linux, there's a configuration file for it, if you can find it and if you have the inclination to go ninja. If not then there's dconf-editor. Download dconf-tools from Software Center. Navigate to desktop>unity>panel. Add your application in the white list. Then close the window. No save button. mmm. So far I have added Shutter, Dropbox and Keepassx in the white list. Before... After.

Evolution Mail on GNOME 3.26

There's a slight change in the user interface. A To Do column now appears to the rightmost after the GNOME 3.26 update. Also there's a noticeable stability increase, what with goa-daemon stopping its RAM usage creep. I don't have to kill it every couple of hours.
