Just FYI - tried to do my "due diligence" and update/upgrade my
Ubuntu. Did "apt-get dist-upgrade"

Result: lost network connectivity COMPLETELY. No wifi, no
eithernet, no network-manager icon... complete shutout.

I had had bad experiences with upgrades before - the main reason i
was reluctant to do it.

That's been my experience of dist-upgrade (on Debian), I always end up
having to copy my home directory back in and re-install packages. I
think there's just not enough resources (memory? disk?) to do it.

Well... managed to get eth0 running (manually).  Upgrading to Ubuntu 16 (I think) right now.  Came close to hosing the system.  Had to issue commands at the console with non-stop interruption by display adapter failing to initialize and retrying every 5 seconds (didn't know how to kill that), switching me away from my terminal

Nice Saturday morning derailment from planned activities.

Hope there's a big denemo AppImage prize at the end of this.

Apparent success!  (I gambled and seem to have won)

I now have this OS:

   Linux sofia 4.4.0-112-generic #135-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 19 11:48:36 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And this runs on it: denemo-1515000238.665198a92-Build23.5.glibc2.14-x86_64.AppImage

          it renders the menu improperly - the menu labels are bunched together in one continuous long "word", and i think everything else is squished horizontally.  (I can provide a screenshot)

However:  I was able to apt-get all the dependencies for the git snapshot, and compile and run denemo !  Don't see any glitches at first glance, will continue to explore

Thanks again, Edgar and everyone else !
