Preliminary Review: Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon Alpha 2
,----[ Quote ]
| That's about all I have at this moment in time, to go into it in any further
| detail might be a bit pointless. Basically we're getting another Ubuntu
| release which will be good. Version 2.6.22 of the kernel, Gnome 2.20 and KDE
| 3.5.7 (with the ability to have a few packages from KDE4 RC2). It will be a
| belter but it goes without saying that Gutsy Gibbon will be a quality
| release.

AMD Radeon HD 2000 Series & Linux

| With the open-source Avivo driver not yet having proper R600 support and the
| official fglrx driver only containing partial support without OpenGL
| acceleration, right now AMD R600 owners are bound to using the VESA driver.
| The AMD Radeon HD 2900XT was introduced on May 14 while the AMD Radeon HD
| 2400 and HD 2600 series were introduced only recently on June 28. Official
| support for the R600 series will likely not arrive in the fglrx driver for a
| few more months, which is very disheartening, and when the open-source Avivo
| driver will provide any R600 support is currently not known.

Still poor support from ATI, with many eyes on the open source project/s.

Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 Tribe 1 - A Review?
,----[ Quote ]
| I did not experience any ill-effects while using Gutsy, but I
| was only browsing the web using Firefox. One more note on Tribe 1,
| Pidgin has replaced GAIM as the instant messenger (as expected) and
| the OpenOffice Draw application was added.
|
| Well, there you have it, nothing exciting thus far, but really, do
| not expect much before the beta release in September.

[Ubuntu Linux Gutsy Gibbon] Tribe 2 released
,----[ Quote ]
| Tribe 2 is the second in a series of milestone CD images that will be
| released throughout the Gutsy development cycle. The Tribe images are known
| to be reasonably free of show-stopper CD build or installer bugs, while
| representing a very recent snapshot of Gutsy.
