Is it just like the normal update, or do I have to do something special with the sys76 driver? I was just wondering.

What in the world is a sys76 driver? :confused:

'sys76' is short for System76 (see www.system76.com); they provide a package (the System76 Driver, http://knowledge76.com/index.php/System76_Driver) that performs some model-specific fixes for the laptops and desktops that System76 sells and supports.

Is it just like the normal update, or do I have to do something special with the sys76 driver? I was just wondering.

You will be able to do the upgrade as normal if you want (although the System76 folks often suggest doing a clean install), and there will be a new version of the driver to perform any 9.04-specific changes, if necessary.
