Hey,

I now have Daryana on my laptop and I can't wait for the final Elyssa to be out so I can upgrade. But until then is there any 'safe' way to upgrade to the current RC ?

I know Elyssa is still a RC and if I want to be safe I should wait for the stable release, but I was wondering if you think it would be OK to use dist-upgrade or something similar to update Daryana.

Also I've read the change log for Elyssa and I was wondering if there will be a fix for the audio driver bug that gives audio output to both speakers and headset when a headset is plugged in.

Cheers

No you can't upgrade to the current Elyssa beta. You would have to do a clean install. Running dist-upgrade will give you Hardy Heron, or some mixed version of Hardy and Mint, and will most likely break some things. Clem just announced the the final version is almost here, so it's probably best to just wait the next few days out and see what happens.

Thanks. I think I'll just wait for the stable to come out. I'd hate to loose my current configuration...
