what's a good way to upgrade debian lxde to LMDE ?
Posted: Thu May 17, 2012 1:22 pm
Hi there !
I use wheezy, lxde, wicd and wish to keep this conf under LMDE. Since a lxde's flavour LMDE isn't out yet, I read different posts about upgrading and pinning on this forum (also this one about xfce). However, since I read different things not specially focused on this issue, I wished to open a thread about lxde on LMDE from debian, to get some advices.
Now I just reinstalled a squeeze because [http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... 9&p=580176]I accumulated mistakes and bugs with some previous trials[/url] and wished to start from the beginning.
So now I configured lxde with my settings on the stable version. I didn't make any preferences file yet, and I read there's no need any anymore
So what would be a better choice ? and how to do it at best ?
- Upgrade from squeeze - lxde to lmde ?
- Upgrade from squeeze to wheezy first, then to lmde ?
And how to manage the MATE/Cinnamon network-manager which gonna be install vs wicd ?
