Hello
Update manager is offering me an update to Ubuntu 12.04 (not xubuntu). I know this is a ridiculous question but should it specify xubuntu in that message? If I click yes, will I end up with xubuntu or "normal" ubuntu?
Thanks and apologies

I've never used xubuntu but I would assume that it is NOT going to switch you to Unity. You can wait for someone else to come along to be sure though.

I just upgraded all three of my Xubuntu 11.10 machines - you will stay on Xubuntu.

Please mark the thread 'solved'.
In case the upgrade goes bad you might find some help in the link in my signature.

AlbertAlbert, don't feel badly. That's a definite oversight by the devs that it says Ubuntu and not Xubuntu as being offered for the upgrade. Fortunately it is just a typo and not a system issue, but most people would have had that same reservation if they did not know the upgrade would stick to Xubuntu.
