After some discussion, yes, this is essentially what we should be doing. You can even forget Precise. Install Raring to both verify existing bugs and to test their fixes. Once a daily or beta is published then you should switch to Saucy. As Doug alluded to elsewhere in this thread, there is currently a lack of people-power to backport fixes to the older releases. I will personally endeavour to capture the nastier bugs and backport them in batches to at least the previous LTS release (Precise at this time). > And about setting up a server, it could be just any computer into the > house (not a full-fledged server machine)?

A newly installed server is very lean and requires much less resources. Others have recommended KVM but LXC is even easier (not good for kernel testing though). -pmatulis -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
