Ubuntu is great! I love it! Only issue i had with it was nVidia HDMI playback but that wasnt hard to solve. Ive been using ubuntu since Karmic and except for the HDMI i had no problems.
On the 10.10.10 i upgraded to Maverick from the terminal with "do-release-upgrade". I noticed that command while i was at a friends house SSH'ing back home. When i came back i ran the command and took me a few hours to upgrade.
And to my suprise i encountered 3 problems (Karmic -> Lucid = Zero)...
1) I cant use a few PPA's at the moment but its livable with.
2) Compiz broken but i can wait. Maybe might compile it myself if i get tired of Metacity.
3) My /home partition got halved.
The first 2... Just inconvenience.
The 3rd... I got 900GB's allocated to my /home so im missing quite a lot of space. I do remember the system reporting before that i had 900GB's but now it just says 485GB's.
Heres what fdisk and df report

I tried googling the solution but sadly i couldnt find it. Hope i posted this in the right section.
Also i haven't tried booting with a live usb/cd as im encoding a short film for school and i noticed it just yesterday.
Also does anyone know why SSH still reports this?
Code:
lisiano@Lisiano-Ubuntu:~$ ssh localhost
