| I know on a slightly outdated Ubuntu system (8.4 or 9.0, I can't quite
| remember which)
Those are not actual Ubuntu release numbers. Ubuntu numbers are
dates: Y.MM. Not decimal fractions; I assume that next year a leading
digit of 1 will be prepended.
8.04, 8.10, 9.04, and (very soon) 9.10 are all valid. Actually, "8.04
LTS" is the proper name for 8.04, I think. LTS == Long Term Support.
Releases are intended to be six moths apart.
I only mention this because I've seen others use incorrect notation
suggesting that they don't know the meaning of the name.
