Mesa 7.6 Gets Pulled Into Ubuntu 9.10
,----[ Quote ]
| Mesa 7.6 does not drastically change the level of
| performance compared to the older Mesa snapshot
| that was found in Ubuntu Karmic up until today,
| but there are improvements in a few areas. In the
| below example from an Intel G43 system we
| compared the Ubuntu 9.04, Ubuntu 9.10 Beta, and
| Ubuntu 9.10 Beta with Mesa 7.6 performance using
| the Phoronix Test Suite. With the Urban Terror
| game there were performance improvements already
| to be found in Ubuntu 9.10 compared to Ubuntu
| 9.04 with Mesa 7.4, but this latest code steps up
| the performance one bit more.

Opinion: Why Karmic Is The Best Designed Ubuntu Yet
,----[ Quote ]
| A much greater selection of elements, colours,
| themes, tones, etc are present â allowing new
| users to stamp their authority over their desktop
| within seconds; no more trudging dodgy wallpaper
| sites for badly rendered scenery when superb
| choices are included by default.

Significant improvements in Ubuntu 9.10
,----[ Quote ]
| I recently installed the beta version of the upcoming
| version of Ubuntu codenamed Karmic Kuala. The changes
| since 9.04 are somewhat subtle yet significant.
| Already in the beta you can feel the polish that went
| into it. Below, in no particular order, I shall rant
| about a few improvements that puts a smile on my
| face.

Karmic Koala: The best Ubuntu Linux ever?
,----[ Quote ]
| Another real nice addition to this
| distribution for new users is the Ubuntu
| Software Center. This take on an apps store,
| makes it mindlessly easy for people to find
| and install software. Experienced Linux users
| won't need this. For them, the Synaptic
| package manager and all the other usual
| package installation programs are there, and
| that's great. But, if you have a friend who's
| just getting their feet wet in Linux, this
| feature is great.
