Ubuntu 24.10 upgrade

From Bitpost wiki
  • The usual:
mh-update-ubuntu
# (ensure all repos are working)
# reboot
# you can connect via direct proxmox shell (not ssh) but seems robust either way
sudo do-release-upgrade
  • fix up apt repos
  • fix up stow (esp. systemd stuff)
  • set up purdy rotating kitty term themes
  • reinstall slop if screenshots stopped working
  • reinstall pulseaudio to get media keys working again (why was it removed?)
sudo apt install pulseaudio-utils

Check the Ubuntu 24.04 upgrade for more detailed notes.

TODO

cast

  • fix gdm3 - if we don't set /etc/gdm3/custom.conf to AutomaticLogin, gdm3 hangs the entire machine - try it again after a few upgrades
  • fix volume media keys
