Upgrade Fun

[Richmond Mathewson]

The first time I posted this message almost all of it got lost somewhere:

Here I am on a G4 Mac with revMedia 4 dp-5 and revStudio 4 dp-4 trying 
to upgrade:

1. The inbuilt upgrade system for Studio asked for a relicence; on 
inputting the
     licence supplied by RunRev nothing happened.

     So, now downloading from:

     https://secure.runrev.com/downloads/all-downloads/full-list/

    and will try to install that file with the number I was issued with 
after the
    conference.

So; to summarise what I previously posted:

The upgrade system both for Windows and Macintosh dp-4 is WONKY;
so upgrade by downloading from the URL referenced above and do a
completely fresh install.

The upgrade system for Linux and Macintosh revMedia (dp-3 and dp-5
respectively) DON'T work. There appears to be NO final revMedia for
Linux.

Of course this is a bit of a bother as none of your preferences are 
preserved.

The RunRev team need to be congratulated on the GM for Linux; absolutely
lovely to have a Linux version on a par with those on Win and Mac.

sincerely, Richmond.
