Hello, while there is a too big to miss notice in the wiki that upgrading from 8.04 to 10.04. will break things-which is all well if you are yourself the well informed operator of the machine-it will happen somewhere ;)
Needless to say I had to write back a backup after I had the case of an machine operator starting said upgrade last week. I found that there is a switch for the update notification in /etc/update-manger/release-upgrades Changing it from "Prompt=lts" to "Prompt=never" will elimate the risk of accidental upgrades from the gui. I haven't tried yet if this will work in 10.04 and 12.04, but perhaps this could please be included in a future version of the ubuntu linuxcnc installation cd ?
