Hi,
You can do sudo update-manager -d from the terminal, but I have never
had good results from doing it this way. Thee's another command you can
use from the big terminal but I don't exactly remember the syntax. It
was something like sudo do-release-upgrade. I thik that may be the way
to go for a speech enabled upgrade with speakup.
