Yeah, I am enjoy using it.
Yep, I'm waiting on the upgrader myself, a full install is too much work, and I would be down for far too long. With a 10870H CPU & 32GB of RAM, NVME drive, and 600MB internet connection, upgrading the OS should be far faster. It should leave me with having to make miner adjustments, not having to re-config everything.
Yeah, I was kind of freaking out about this upgrade at first, but after reading the replies here, I changed my mind.
No more rushing into a fresh install — I’ll stay on 17.3, get my work done, enjoy my personal projects, and just relax with the system.
It’s rock solid, and the upgrader will come when it’s ready. Thanks! ![]()
Hello. Because i had bad experiences about upgrading from version to version with tools provided by distributions - i admit it was long time ago - i prefer making backups and reinstall new version.
Just a opinion.
Most of the crashes i encountered - as far as i remember - came from proprietary drivers, such as Nvidia.
So i backup manually - but you can use Timeshift for instance - and i backup thunderbird's data whether it is the snap or Debian version, and data from web browsers. Since few years I use accounts to sync Firefox, which is my main browser.
But if the 17.3 runs fine and allow you to do what you have to do ; just stay with it, until Zorin 18.1 perhaps.
Anyway, me and my eldest daughter (12 years old), are using Zorin 18 on two Thinkpads (P53 / T460), Nvidia drivers on mine, and it works mostly very fine.
Nice, thanks for the tips.
