Upgrade to 18.04 from 16.04

[Eric Jackson]

This is for Ubuntu but it may work for Kubuntu also. The next to last line
might be different but if it doesn't tell you an upgrade is ready you won't
have done anything to your system.

Upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or 17.10

To upgrade on a desktop system:

   -

   Open the "Software & Updates" Setting in System Settings.
   - Select the 3rd Tab called "Updates".
   - Set the "Notify me of a new Ubuntu version" drop down menu to "For any
   new version" if you are using 16.04 LTS; set it to "For long-term support
   versions" if you are using 17.10.
   -

   Press Alt+F2 and type  update-manager -c   into the command box.
   - Update Manager should open up and tell you that Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is
   now available.
   -

   If not you can run
    /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk
   - Click Upgrade and follow the on-screen instructions.
