Okay,

First, I just searched the forums for 45 minutes or so to make sure this wasn't already posted. If it was, I can't find it. I've found other threads with this title, but they really didn't deal purely with this topic.

I have Ubuntu Studio 7.04. I love it!! I've tweaked my install just the way I like it. Unfortunately, the updates have stopped rolling in, and I suspect it's time to hit that "upgrade" button in synaptic.

Question: Will hitting the "upgrade" button in synaptic upgrade me to a newer version of Ubuntu Studio or will I end up with old brown and orange Ubuntu??

Must I do a clean install of the new studio and basically start from scratch to upgrade Ubuntu Studio??

From what i've been reading it would be best to do a fresh install of the latest version.
If i remember correctly you cant upgrade to 8.10 from 7.04 anyway.

That's a poop sandwich... I guess I'm, stuck with feisty until I have the unlimited time in my schedule to re-configure everything I've already done...
