| Washington - Thinking of trying Linux? If you are, you'll
| quickly discover that there are dozens of different
| distributions - or "distros" - of the operating system
| floating around on the internet. Which should you choose?
| These days, the consensus favourite for easiest to set up is
| Ubuntu. Based on the stable Debian distro, Ubuntu comes with
| most drivers and productivity applications that you'll need
| to start working right away.

Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha 2 Released
,----[ Quote ]
| We should start this article by letting everyone know that Ubuntu 9.10
| (Karmic Koala), due for release in late October this year, will not have that
| professional theme everyone was expecting, as stated by Mark Shuttleworth
| himself in the Ubuntu Open Week Q & A:
|
| "It has taken a long, long time to pull together a design team. I had hoped
| to have that team in place six months ago, but it's still forming. I think we
| will make good progress in the next cycle, you can already see a few things
| that have borne fruit from that team: notifications, time zone selector in
| installer, etc, but it's fragmentary. I'm pretty darn confident we'll have a
| new look for 10.04 but I think only pieces of that will emerge for 9.10."

Karmic Desktop UDS run-down!
,----[ Quote ]
| Overall it is gearing up to be a pretty radical and exciting release; there
| are some changes to the default application set as well as some major version
| upgrades of existing core components. We are trying to be fairly aggressive
| in terms of new stuff so that if Canonical wants Karmic+1 to be an LTS (Long
| Term Support) release, we can have fairly stabilized new technologies by then
| (thanks to 6 months of stabilization in the Karmic cycle) instead of having
| to wait until after the LTS (Karmic+2) to introduce them. Since many of these
| changes would be too radical to first appear in an LTS, if we don't upgrade
| now we may not be able to for a year, and have to maintain old versions for
| 3-5 years in the LTS.

Ubuntu 9.10 Off To A Great Performance Start
,----[ Quote ]
| Wow, while there may not be many end-user improvements in Ubuntu 9.10 yet and
| the desktop looks just like that of Ubuntu 9.04, there does seem to be some
| performance improvements. Besides the huge SQLite improvement that did not
| come as a surprise, there are better compilation times with GCC 4.4, much
| better disk performance with the newer Linux kernel, and other improvements
| throughout. One area that still needs to be improved upon is with the Intel
| Linux graphics performance after going through radical changes with kernel
| mode-setting, DRI2, and the Graphics Execution Manager.

Karmic Alpha 1 released
,----[ Quote ]
| Welcome to Karmic Koala Alpha 1, which will in time become Ubuntu 9.10.
|
| Pre-releases of Karmic are not encouraged for anyone needing a stable
| system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even
| frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for Ubuntu developers and
| those who want to help in testing, reporting, and fixing bugs.

Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha 1 Released
,----[ Quote ]
| The system is fast as usual, with no major problems at the moment, except for
| the fact that the video drivers don't work, yet. As always, we did not expect
| something exciting from the first, and not even from the next two or three
| alpha versions of Ubuntu. Probably starting with the fifth or sixth alpha we
| will see some big changes, like that professional theme everyone is still
| waiting for, and which Mark Shuttleworth promised us.

More Karmic plans
,----[ Quote ]
| The Jaunty development cycle was a hectic, pulsating (no pun intended) ride,
| and Karmic's looks to be just as vigourous! Here are my objectives for 9.10:
|
| Audio:
|
| Enable power-saving by default for HDA controllers - after fifteen
| seconds, power down the HDA controller to squeeze some juice for those
| transpacific flights. I'll be calling for testers shortly, but I'm most
| interested in resolving anomalies after the controller powers back up.

Canonical Engaging Ubuntu Software Partners

Will Your Next Wireless Router Run Ubuntu?
,----[ Quote ]
| Granted, only experienced Linux geeks are likely to be able to enjoy master
| mode for the time being, since putting it into action requires intimate
| familiarity with the âiwconfigâ command, the âhostapâ utility and most likely
| dhcp servers, not to mention bridging network interfaces together.
|
| Nonetheless, the day has at least become conceivable when setting up an
| Ubuntu computer as a wireless router is as easy to clicking a button in
| NetworkManager, allowing even the most technologically inept Linux users to
| create local wireless networks effortlesslyâand not just ad-hoc networks like
| those supported by âInternet Connection Sharingâ in Windows, but true access
| point-based networks.

Ubuntu 9.10 sees the cloud above the trees

| Next month Ubuntu 9.04, Jaunty Jackelope, hits an FTP or torrent site near

| touted as cloud-centric.

|
| As to naysayers, well, hey, itâs not just a koala â itâs also karmic. That
| means Windows no more; this time Ubuntu isnât just personal, itâs fate.

Ubuntu 9.10 Release Schedule Is Now Available

| Ubuntu 9.04 will not even be out for another month and a half, but Ubuntu
| enthusiasts can already start getting excited for its successor, Ubuntu 9.10.
| Ubuntu 9.10 has been codenamed the Karmic Koala and this release from
| Canonical will integrate Plymouth to provide a rich kernel mode-setting
| experience, feature performance improvements, and contain enhancements for
| Ubuntu cloud computing. In time for Ubuntu 9.10 we may even see some
| Gallium3D drivers and the latest innovations in the Linux stack as of the
| Linux 2.6.31 kernel or thereabouts.
