[PLUG] Canonical dropping support for LPIA as of 10.04!

[JP Vossen <jp@jpsdomain.org>]

Bummer for Mini9/Atom users.  Sure, i386 will also work, but in theory 
LPIA would work *better* and last longer on batteries.  No upgrade path 
either from LPIA either, clean install only!  :-(

On the other hand, "... Further, on investigation, upgrades to Karmic 
are not recommended due to the limited maintenance performed on the 
release..."  explains my vast problems upgrading LPIA 9.04 to LPIA 9.10, 
as noted previously on this list.

See:

Maybe it'll be a good thing, if LPIA support was really that bad (and I 
certainly think it was/is bad in Karmic)...

Later,
JP

"Microsoft Tax" = the additional hardware & yearly fees for the add-on
software required to protect Windows from its own poorly designed and
implemented self, while the overhead incidentally flattens Moore's Law.
