I'm still on Warty, and I wondered if anyone had upgraded to Hoary using apt-get? How did that go? What is the CLI command to do that? Anything break?

To upgrade:

edit /etc/apt/sources.list and replace warty everywhere with hoary
then in a terminal windows type:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Worked great for me. There are some small things that don't work as well as on a fresh install, don't remember what they were though, so probably not a big problem to most people.

Anything break?

Crossover Office broke for me, and the Nvidia drivers needed to be turned on again. Thats it...

Xorg got messed up for me, was stuck at 640x480 resolution, and running the config program for it didnt work. so i just downloaded the ISO and did a clean install
