Intrepid sources gone?

[fixy67]

Canonical has limited resources

And has no enough storage capacity for storing all versions?
I've used Ubuntu till today. Now I'm going back to "standard" Debian.
Thanks for canonical...

In the last year I've tried the newer Ubuntu releases, but I had many problems with them.
(I've used it as host for virtualbox)

Snowpine, do not lecture me on the subject of end of support. Yes. I knew that support would end but that does not mean I have to like it or not grumble about the issue. I have absolutely no intentions of discontinuing 8.10 at this time.

The next you advise someone watch your TONE. I will not be chastised nor do I need to be lectured on Canonical's resources or lack thereof. I appreciate that you were trying to be helpful in an informative way but you manner was arrogant and I encounter that enough on the Net. I will not tolerate it here.

I am just an ordinary guy/gal just like you, not an Ubuntu developer. Complaining on Ubuntu Forums will accomplish nothing. If you want to make a suggestion to the people in charge at Canonical, here's a link to the correct forum to do so: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/

End-of-life Ubuntu releases are moved to: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/

Debian does the exact same thing: http://archive.debian.org/debian/

Thank you! I will try it...

Thanks snowpine, plucky, urock, and dino99. I had the exact same issue on my Ubuntu server and missed this thread (Googling the wrong part of the output from apt-get install tomcat6). Your information was very useful and saved me from banging my head against the wall (or trying to manually install Tomcat6).

I have no hard feelings towards you Snowpine. Thanks for the link and Best Wishes.

OK, I upgraded incrementally but rapidly through 9.04, 9.10, and have arrived at 10.04; from what I see about 10.10, I think I'll just stay here for now.

Naturally, all the "helpful" changes in look and feel mean that I have hours of discovery and tinkering before me to try to get back to what I have been used to, but I've come to accept that as normal. I do, though, wish I knew why all the window-operation buttons (close/hide/minimize) have moved from the upper right of windows to the upper left. . . .

I have read, so I don't know how true it is, that Developers wanted to give Lucid a "Mac" feel as the buttons are arranged in reverse side order in Apple's system. But I understand how you feel. Below are 4 links. The first discusses general changes you will find in 10:04. The second contains a method to reorder the buttons. I believe this is also possible without resorting to the technique in the link; if you set your machine to either Ambiance or Radiance Appearance Theme but you may still be interested in knowing/learning an alternative.

Note-the 1st link really discusses the OS when it was in Beta but it is still accurate as to what you'll encounter.

If your machine is a laptop(it doesn't matter if it is not-still useful info ). The 4rd link discusses 10:04 AFTER the Beta test w/screenshots and commentary from Users.

While you are exploring your new OS. Verify that all your drives are detected. I know from personal experience this is a known and serious issue with Lucid Lynx on some computers.

I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed on my Dell Inspiron 6000. And there is an existing mouse click issue with all the later versions of Ubuntu.

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1137700&page=7

I have tried almost all the techniques out there and nothing seems to help.

What do I do if upgrade is not an option for me?
