[08:03] <Daca_> Hello, I am new to Lubuntu. So far works great and I would like to use it permanently. Can somebody tell me how to upgrade it when the present version 15.10 expires in June?
[08:05] <hateball> Daca_: The update-manager will tell you. otherwise in a terminal "sudo do-release-upgrade"
[08:06] <Daca_> Thank you so much!
[08:06] <hateball> Daca_: and since 16.04 is an LTS release, you have the option of sticking with it for 2 years
[08:06] <hateball> otherwise you'll need to update every 6-9 months
[08:09] <Daca_> Great, thank you so much. Just please to make sure I have understood, can I get upgrage with just typing the command you gave me: "sudo do-release-upgrade"?
[08:10] <hateball> Daca_: yes
[08:10] <hateball> Daca_: You can run it now as well, it will check if there is a new release available but tell you there isnt
[08:10] <Daca_> Fantastic. Thank you so much!

[14:27] <cnnx> to write documents and spreadsheets?
[14:27] <wxl> cnnx: abiword and ummm i forgot the spreadsheets thing XD i just install libreoffice.
[14:28] <wxl> cnnx: gnumeric is the spreadsheet.
[14:28] <wxl> cnnx: if you're trying to keep resources to a minimum, they're your best choice. otherwise, libreoffice!!
