Just let the update manager take care of it. If you have the rc installed then the updates will auto-magically update it to the release version.

Are you sure 300mb of updates were released after official release?
Only recent updates I noticed was firefox 3.0.9

Maybe you mean if you install RC today, you would notice 300mb of updates?

I had some updates to cups and network manager as well as the firefox one.

How do you know if it has upgraded? I don't remember any major upgrades.

I installed the RC on the 17/04/09.

I ran:

lsb_release -a

The result:

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
Codename: jaunty


How would I know if it's the RC or full release?

Thanks.

I was running 8.1 and got a notice of a pile of updates last week as well. It was over 400 files.
