 that seemed a good idea. So I performed the first steps, which worked well.
 But after that I had a more basic problem on 1 machine:
 - on my desktop, update-manager works ( new distribution ... available )
 - on my laptop, I get:
       "you can install 1 update",
       " download size 82 kb"
    but the description window is empty, and clicking on "install updates"
    dows nothing
  Anyway, update-manager gives the message
     "current dist not found in meta-release file"
  and do-release-upgrade gives:
     " Checking for a new ubuntu release
      current dist not found in meta-release file
      No new release found "
  Browsing the Web for that message gave me no useful information. apart that
  this bug was already present in previous releases, and was supposed to be fixed.

May-be this post should be done in a new thread?
