Nowadays I am so lazy to blog at here, I usually post up examples at LBE. But for this incident I have to put here.
DON'T UPGRADE TO EDGY IF YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE TO DAPPER.
If anythings goes correctly you have no problem, if you make a mistake, you are dead meat! I screw up when upgrade. Ya one thing, never go and sleep and leave the installation goes. I left my online upgrade running and I sleep yesterday night. When I wake up and so excited, I type my password on screensaver and log in to a new instant of desktop instead of login back to the current login.
I didn't realized that my GUI upgrade program is still not complete, refers to toydi, the upgrader will ask you series of question whether to replace all the stuff or not. That is so idiot, sure i wanna upgrade and replace... haih!
Then I restart my fresh edgy, its gone. the kernel and many configurations are not setup completely. Anyway install fresh edgy is fun! while installing edgy, you still can online in the live cd environment. What kind of installation allow you to do that? Windows never allow you to do that!
Okay fresh install done in a short while, now i am buzying install the programs i need to use, And i discover more stupid stuff such as I need to install vim-full, firefox flash plugin problem etc.

well, i upgraded 2 machines, and i must say they are pretty non-technically easy. Perhaps you have customized your system so heavily that the upgrade might not foresee such configurations (my main workstation too, but good thing i am prepared so it did not break anything badly)
have fun with Edgy, it is great distro at this time imho.
