    I upgraded last night. Going through the Update Manager stalled out with
    no error; it just sat there for over a half hour with nothing happening. I editied the sources from 'zara' to 'zena' and did the command line
    upgrade. It finished in minutes. Watching the install scroll by it seemed
    a lot of the time was used installing the new icons.

    I installed the Cinnamon version after the SSD switch. It looks okay but I spend most of my time on that laptop in i3 so I wasn't too familiar with
    the previous Cinnamon desktop.

    No Nvidia in that box either so possible kernel problems don't apply.
