Ubuntu readies the Karmic Koala

Shuttleworth stretches Ubuntu from netbooks to heavens

| The desktop and server editions of the
| "Karmic Koala" Ubuntu 9.10 release were
| officially launched today, although
| Canonical was talking up the server edition
| two weeks ago, which includes an integrated,
| EC2-compatible cloud computing environment
| that is based on the open source Eucalyptus
| Project and uses KVM virtual machines. But
| the desktop edition has seen plenty of work,
| as El Reg explained in this review of the
| release candidate at the beginning of the
| month.

Everything You Need To Know about Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala)
,----[ Quote ]
| On October 29, Canonical is set to release
| Ubuntu 9.10 (codenamed âKarmic Koalaâ), the
| newest installment in the Ubuntu product
| line. In anticipation of this release, we
| took the release candidate (RC) for a test
| drive. Ubuntu 9.10 RC comes on a LiveCD just
| like its predecessors and allows you to test
| a fully-functional installation of the
| operating system without installing it. The
| boot process looks very different from
| previous versions, especially since the old
| progress bar has been replaced with one that
| just moves from left to right while
| providing very little useful boot progress
| information.

Ubuntu's new Linux tries getting cloud-friendly
,----[ Quote ]
| "What frustrates me is the term 'cloud' has
| come to mean anything with an Internet
| connection, including some stuff that really
| looks familiar like internal IT," said
| Shuttleworth in an interview. It's fair to
| say that in Ubuntu's case, though, it's not
| a stretch.

| Since the launch of Desktop Linux Reviews,

| havenât done a review of Ubuntu itself. I
| wanted to wait until there was a significant
| enough release as Iâd done a review for
| ExtremeTech back when I was a full-time
| employee there.
|
| Iâm happy to note that Ubuntu Linux has hit
| version 9.10 and has some nifty new features
| that make it worth reviewing here.

REVIEW: Ubuntu 9.10 Beta Promises to Strengthen Distro's
Position as Desktop Favorite
,----[ Quote ]
| The beta of Ubuntu 9.10--or Karmic Koala as
| it's also known--offers the core open-
| source updates you would expect. But it
| also provides important enhancements in the
| areas of disk encryption, tightened system
| permissions and cloud service integration--
| all of which combine to make Ubuntu even
| more attractive as the Linux distro of
| choice on the desktop.

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.
