Many thanks for improving Ubuntu by working on this issue.

Please note that I cannot install any other Ubuntu version than 10.04
on my computer at this time. While I understand that new features
won't be added to 10.04, I understand that bugfixes are still being
made, after all it's supposed to be LTS.

I would run said utility under the present installation and upload the
result, if I can do that without expert knowledge (which I do not
have, I am just a user).

I thank you for your understanding and patience, and hope to receive
some feedback soon.

with kind regards,
Georg Profos
