Hi there

I'm running the development version of intrepid ibex with some major bugs and now I want to upgrade to the official release. My update manager doesn't show anything new... (I've already set the distribution updates to normal). what can I do? Do I have to make a fresh new installation?

Thanks a lot

If you are current with all the updates then you are already running the final release.

I agree with Partyboi2. But you could try opening update manager from the terminal/alt+F2 and using `update-manager -d` as the command to search for a dist. upgrade.

I am in a simmilar situation (i.e., was running Intrepid for some time now), so I thought I would give it a try as well...

Funny thing, when I try to run "update-manager -d" on the terminal in GNOME, I get
