I have upgraded my Ubuntu Edgy to the Feisty version.  I was a pretty straight forward process.  If you still have the Edgy version of Ubuntu I encourage you to go ahead and do the upgrade.  I have followed the instructions listed at this post:

They do a pretty good job explaining how to get this done either via the GUI or Terminal (command line).  Although I usually install my software through the terminal, I opted for the GUI this time because of simplicity.

I have heard people having minor problems during the upgrade but not a single error message on this side.

After the upgrade my apache server would not start.  I had remove the coldfusion connector entries in the httpd.conf file of apache.  You can find this file at /etc/apache2/ .  After this I was able to start apache so all I did was run the JRun connector tool and got my Apache working with CF again.

Connecting Apache 2.2 to Coldfusion JRun Server. 

$cd /opt/jrun/bin
$gksudo ./wsconfig

In the configuration directory field enter:

/etc/apache2

Click on Advanced… and enter the following for "Directory and file of server binary" field:

/usr/sbin/apache2

This should be enough for creating the connection.  Restart your apache server.  For this you can use the great tool Webmin, or via terminal:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

That should do it!
