For me, after an ibex upgrade, the eric4 splash screen will come up
and after some loading it will vanish but nothing happens.
the following is reported. I can still run eric3, and it seems to run
ok. Tim

to follow up, I don't recommend upgrading to ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex
I had so many persistent problems with it that I decided to downgrade
back to 8.04 LTS .....8.04.1 actually. In my efforts to do so I found
several others wanting to do the same.
Its said that downgrading is not supported but what I did and learned to
do, is to backup the home directory (which I have as a separate
partition) and upon deciding to downgrade, you really just reinstall the
earlier OS completely over writing the newer one. And then copy back the
home backup selectively as it has all your configurations and such in
it. you might backup the /root user directory too.
Of course this means you have to re-install everything that is not a
part of the default install. But I will tell anyone that its easier than
doing so on a windows machine as the home directory has all your config
settings and email, browser bookmarks, etc...
Anyway, although I have the eric3&4 configs I still have to uninstall
the version I got from the repositories and of course go through
reinstallation of eric 4 and maybe 3.
On the positive side I have something of a cleaner system than I had
over the past upgrades history.
Now if I can remember the tweeks I did.... printer driver, scanner
driver, etc...
