Why I Use Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| The other day I had to help my wife with her
| work laptop. It was really weird working in
| a Windows environment. It felt very foreign,
| and I had to think really hard to find the
| right menus. It felt clunky and slow. I
| guess intuitiveness is somewhat based on
| familiarity. If I canât find a menu where I
| expect it to be, then it isnât very
| intuitive.
|
| So why do I use Ubuntu, because itâs better,
| and thatâs that!

Plymouth Gets Pulled Into Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu 9.10 didn't end up seeing
| integration of Plymouth as USplash and the
| new XSplash ended up being used. However,
| the Ubuntu development community and
| Canonical seemed to have changed their
| mind. Just uploaded to the Ubuntu Lucid
| repository for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS is in fact
| Plymouth.

Plymouth Running On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
,----[ Quote ]
| For those looking to play with Plymouth on
| Ubuntu right away, it's as easy as sudo
| apt-get install plymouth when running on
| the Ubuntu 10.04 development branch.
| Yesterday we installed Plymouth on an
| Ubuntu Lucid box and recorded the video
| below.

What will Ubuntu 10.04 bring to the table?
,----[ Quote ]
| I hope you are as excited about 10.04 as I
| am. I believe this could be the Ubuntu
| release that the public would have a hard
| time turning down as its desktop OS. Not
| only will it have a very solid foundation,
| the overlaying structure will be much more
| modern looking.

New Application Stack in Ubuntu 10.04
,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu 10.04, which will appear next April
| 2010 as Canonicalâs long-anticipated third
| LTS (Long Term Support) release, will
| feature substantial changes in the lineup
| of applications installed by default.
| Hereâs a look at the biggest ones, with
| some thoughts.
|
| Judging by the controversy over the
| replacement of Pidgin with Empathy, many
| Ubuntu users do not take kindly to
| decisions to modify the application stack
| in a default installation. Even when the
| change arguably does not compromise
| important features and despite the fact
| that 35,000 applications are always just
| an âapt-get installâ awayâfor those who
| have the bandwidth, at leastâchange tends
| to spawn a lot of ire.

Ubuntu 10.04 May Backport Newer Kernels
,----[ Quote ]
| By the time Ubuntu 10.04 rolls around in
| April, the Linux 2.6.33 kernel will have
| been released and the Linux 2.6.34 kernel
| will be in development, but the Ubuntu
| developers have decided to stick it out
| with the 2.6.32 kernel for a maximum
| stabilization period, especially since
| this is a Long-Term Support release.
