A Look At Ubuntu Lucid Plymouth Themes [Screenshots And Short Video]
,----[ Quote ]
| I've finally got Plymouth up and running on
| Ubuntu Lucid. Well, up and partially
| running - I only get to see the new
| Plymouth at shutdown, but considering I
| have an Nvidia graphics card and only
| installed Ubuntu Lucid in VirtualBox so
| far, I'll take what I can get.
|
| Let's take a look at the Ubuntu Lucid
| Plymouth themes (already included in
| Lucid). I should have made this post about
| the "Solar" theme only, as it's the only
| one which is nice, the others are either
| static or just a "glow".

Ubuntu Help Centre To Get Major Overhaul For Lucid?
,----[ Quote ]
| The Ubuntu "Help and Support" system may be
| getting a overhaul in time for Lucid.
|
| Developers feel the majority of users are
| either simply unaware that the help system
| exists or find it overly complicated to
| navigate and draw information from.

Ubuntu Showcase Videos are Awesome Adverts

| These videos can be a great way to
| demonstrate the power of Linux/Ubuntu to
| family members, friends or the hardened
| Linux sceptic. What better way to prove
| your OS is good looking, useable and
| feature-filled than to show your good
| looking, useable and feature-filled
| desktop?!

Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 2 Removes HAL
,----[ Quote ]
| "HAL" unfortunately isn't the heinous
| supercomputer from Kubrick's film 2001, but
| Ubuntu's Hardware Abstraction Layer between
| Ubuntu's hardware and software. It has now
| disappeared entirely from the current
| Ubuntu 10.04 test version, it's function
| being taken over among other things by
| DeviceKit. The advantage to this, according
| to the official announcement, is that
| Ubuntu has a faster boot and startup from
| hibernate time.

Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 2 Benchmarks With Early Fedora 13 Numbers
,----[ Quote ]
| Overall, there are both good and bad
| performance improvements for Ubuntu 10.04
| LTS Alpha 2 in relation to Ubuntu 9.10.
| Most of the negative regressions are
| attributed to the EXT4 file-system losing
| some of its performance charm. With using a
| pre-alpha snapshot of Fedora 13 and the
| benchmark results just being provided for
| reference purposes, we will hold off on
| looking into greater detail at this next
| Red Hat Linux update until it matures. You
| can run your own tests though if you wish
| using our open-source Phoronix Test Suite
| benchmarking platform.
