I am having Trouble getting this through to You. Something in Your System is rejecting because of HTML attachments, which there are none that I am putting in here.

This is my 3rd try and I hope the last. I have told my Thunderbird to send this in plain Text, I just hope that works.

-----Main text----

This should be an easy fix.

This morning I tried to upgrade my Ubuntu 11.10 to the Ubuntu 12.04 beta2-desktop-amd64, which did not work.

I went into the Terminal and typed in this Line.....
        ''sudo do-­release-­upgrade ­d;''

I tried this several times, both using and not using the "-" between words like it is Printed in the PDF I downloaded from the Ubuntu Web Site last evening. I also tried it with and with out the "; " at the end of the Line.

The only result I got was a Line that said "no upgrades found''. I know the File has been released, because I downloaded a copy of it last evening also. I do prefer to use the Automatic Upgrade, because it has worked so well on Ubuntu before, and saves so much time re-installing and configuring Software.

I am currently using Ubuntu 10.04 L.T.S as my Main Software, but I have the 11.10 version installed also, the last two weeks.

The 11.10 appears to be working great, but I always test New OS Systems about a Month before I really switch to them on a permanent basis.

One comment I would like to make is about the 'new' Desktop Programs, both Gnome3, and Unity. I do not really like either of them, because they remove the 'Panels' that an individual can add Icons to for Quick Starting Software Programs. I am using the Unity on my Ubuntu 11.10 because is it the 'lesser of the two evils'. I normally keep 18 separate Icons, plus the Drop Down Menu Box, and the standard Calender, Network Icon Volume Control, and Shut Down Menu in the top Panel on Ubuntu 10.04. That can't be done in the Unity Interface. The ''Dashboard'' is a time waster in finding the Programs I want to run.

Other then the Menu system, the Ubuntu 11.10 appears to be a great operating System. This 10.04 I have been running has been the best I have ever owned in 28 Years I have been using Computers.

Thank You
