Thats what the "current dist not found in meta-release file" error is causing. There are simple instructions on how to fix it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/118862.

Once Gutsy is final that command will work, but until then its still not a final release and you will have to update your sources list. s/feisty/gutsy/ and then try the command. You may have to click "check" after launching the update-manager, but it'll cleanly upgrade you. Sorry guys, I tried this myself and I realize my mistake.

I found others who said the same thing on the ubuntu forums. So I changed feisty to gutsy in the sources.list, then ran "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and everything worked fine.

The -c -d are 'check' and 'distribution' so it'll scan for a new distribution releases without having to update sources list. If you decide to go through with the update update-manager will change the file for you. Doug – no.

Gutsy at least boots now. In Feisty the laptop did not boot due to libata issues. (reported in beta but never fixed) At this moment the upgrade was worth it, even if it is only for + Rhythmbox finally providing cross fading. Now add equalising and we can call it a music player. - udev takes up 100% cpu continually - most of my applets crash after logging in. - The the actual login window defaults to the standard for gnome as some files seem to be missing. - Hibernation no longer works That's all I found wrong with it for now. So if you are planning an upgrade, be prepared to report bugs. Lets get to it :) I upgraded my laptop (dell inspiron 8200).

That’s all I found wrong with it for now. So if you are planning an upgrade, be prepared to report bugs. Lets get to it :)

While acpi still seems broken, I have otherwise found Gutsy to be remarkably stable, especially for something tagged "Alpha". It seems to play much nicer with most of my hardware (picks up my 1440x900 resolution automatically, my wireless mouse works out of the box, etc). Good luck!
