Ubuntu 8.10 - All Hail new Network Manager
,----[ Quote ]
| Canonical, the developers behind Ubuntu Linux have release Intrepid Ibex, the
| successor to last spring's Hardy Heron release. Ibex isn't a long-term
| support release - which might put off some large organizations - but for
| Ubuntu desktop fans, version 8.10 makes a worthwhile upgrade.
|
| [...]
|
| The slew of upgraded apps and packages always makes new releases tempting,
| but for us it was NetworkManager and GNOME's tabbed browser windows that
| sealed the deal.
