Hi,
I realise this is most likely a complete n00b thing to do, but I've had 14.10 on my laptop for a while and only noticed the other day that I could no longer install software with apt-get. I'm guessing this is because 14.10 is no longer supported, which is fair enough. I figured I'd upgrade through a couple of versions and everything would be fine again. The only problem is I can't, because the repos can't be found. I've previously always stuck to LTS releases, but when I got this laptop 14.04 didn't support my mousepad so I had to use 14.10, so this is my first experience with this kind of issue. Is there any way I can still upgrade to a newer version without a clean install? I think I read somewhere there was no offline upgrade option for 15.04. I really hope someone can help.
Thanks in advance,
Alex
