Laptop software update

The past couple days I've done some software updates on my computers, namely I updated from Ubuntu 6.06 to 6.10 on the server, and I installed beryl on the laptop.

This is the process used to upgrade from 6.06-server to 6.10-server:

cd /etc/apt
sudo cp sources.list{,.dapper}
sudo sed -i 's/dapper/edgy/g' sources.list

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Installing Beryl was even easier, because I used a script:

Also, I found good information at another site:
