Ubuntu Help?

piratePenguin:
Are you using the latest Ubuntu release? 5.10 "The Breezy Badger" is the latest, I'd hope you're using that (I think).

Aloone_Jonez:
Nope, I'm using 5.04 - "The Hoary Hedgehog" Release.

How do I upgrade?

I think you'll have to reinstall, but I'm no Ubuntu user.
You should get a quick response if you ask on IRC (irc.freenode.net #ubuntu).

Updating all the packages in Synaptic probably won't give you the 5.10 stuff (the new software updater and other things).

cymon:
sudo apt-get upgrade dist-upgrade
That could work, at least that's how Debian does it.

Aloone_Jonez:
Which gave me:

Another annoyance, I've managed to install FireFox 1.5 but how the fuck do I alter the launcher on Gnome?

KDE and even Xfce were easy I just right clicked on the them and changed the path to the executable, this works on the quick launch on the top panel but it dosen't work on the Applications pulldown menu, they should make this behaviour consistant.

EDIT:
How do I get root in Nautilus?
