I have a milling machine running Ubuntu 10.04 and I went to upgrade Linuxcnc from 2.6.8 to 2.6.9 today from the Update Manager and it gives me the message below and then hangs (hangs Update Manager - not Ubuntu). I have to launch the Activity Monitor and force quit it.
The error that pops up says: "Your Ubuntu release is not supported anymore" "You will not get any further security fixes or critical updates. Please Upgrade to the later version of Ubuntu Linux.” I was able to update Linuxcnc through Synaptic Package Manager instead of Update Manager but am wondering if there is an easy way to update Ubuntu itself and continue on my merry way. Or will have I have to jump through flaming hoops to update Ubuntu and the rtai kernel, etc etc.? I’m not opposed to updating it if there is something reasonable I should progress to, I just haven’t been following things lately. The lathe I have is now running Debian and a pre-release of 2.7, but I don’t want to go that far with the mill just yet...
