How can I upgrade from Breezy to Dapper? I read the official directions written by Kubuntu Devs but I don't understand them. Is there any way in which I could upgrade from 5.10 to 6.6 *without* re-installing everything?

Re: Upgrades...
In fact, you only need to replace all keywords breezy by dapper in the file /etc/apt/sources.list and then type two commands :
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
Sometimes people are loosing kde in the upgrade, so you can by security type this two more commands :
sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
Then reboot to the new kernel...
Hope it helped -
Re: Upgrades...
I just came back from Boston. Tell me. If I do sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop; does that reinstall my desktop/KDE and put all the settings back to the defaults.Comment

Re: Upgrades...
Underscrore, yes it will reinstall all your kde settings... Or at least, it should
StephZ, apt-get is almost the same as aptitude, just aptitude is keeping packages installed as dependencies of the main package asked to be installed...
Good luckComment
