Lucid was 10.04, and 3y desktop support; Precise (12.04) came with 5y desktop support. Would be interesting to hear what the results of your script are on the 12.04 release? Although with 14.04 LTS due in six months, I'd suggest waiting for that rather than locking into 12.04 now for five years. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
