Ubuntu 10.04 and the Dell D600

,----[ Quote ]
| I have written here in this blog of my 
| brother and his conversion years ago from 
| Windows to Linux and Apple. He has four 
| computers, two of which have Linux, and two 
| of which a have PowerPC based OS.X. One of 
| the Linux computers recently suffered a 
| motherboard failure, so he was down one. 
| 
| [...]
| 
| So, for that matter, is Ubuntu 10.04. 
| Another strong release.

Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx - A Fresh Look At What Is On Offer 

,----[ Quote ]
| As many of you will know, Ubuntu 10.04 
| Lucid Lynx is officially being released 
| today - perhaps has already been released 
| as I am writing this. Ubuntu 10.04 is an 
| Long Term Support (LTS) version. With the 
| Long Term Support (LTS) version you get 3 
| years support on Ubuntu Desktop, and 5 
| years on Ubuntu Server.
| 
| Let's get a bird's eye view of what is on 
| offer in this latest avatar namely  Ubuntu 
| 10.04 a.k.a Lucid Lynx.

Ubuntu 10.04 ("Lucid Lynx") Review

Software makers fall in behind Lucid Lynx

,----[ Quote ]
| Thursday is D-Day - meaning Download Day - 
| for the new Ubuntu 10.04 Long Term Support 
| release from commercial Linux distributor 
| Canonical. And this release is shaping up 
| to be a watershed event for the upstart 
| distro.
| 
| That's true not only on the desktop and on 
| the server, but among the software 
| development community that wants to code 
| applications and make money.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS adds business and ease-of-use tools

,----[ Quote ]
| Canonical has high hopes for its latest 
| release: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Long Term 
| Support). Also known as Lucid Lynx, this 
| new version is the one that, from many 
| indications, the company hopes will take 
| Ubuntu from being a fan favorite to a 
| commercial success. Based on my first look 
| at the release candidate, Canonical's hopes 
| may be realized.

Did Ubuntu 10.04 Achieve Its Ten Second Boot Goal?

,----[ Quote ]
| Canonical expressed their plans to achieve 
| a ten-second boot time in June of last year 
| for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, with their reference 
| system being a Dell Mini 9 netbook. In 
| February, we last checked on Ubuntu's boot 
| performance and found it close, but not 
| quite there yet, but did they end up 
| hitting this goal for the final release of 
| the Lucid Lynx? Well, from our tests, not 
| quite. We tested out a near-final version 
| of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on three netbooks -- 
| including a Dell Mini 9 -- and the boot 
| speed is not quite in the single digits.

Ubuntu's Linux OS -- Mac OS X's Doppelganger?

,----[ Quote ]
| The desktop editions of Ubuntu will also be 
| released on Thursday, sporting a new look 
| (but not Gnome 3 -- that will probably 
| arrive with the Maverick Meerkat release 
| six months down the line), new graphics 
| card drivers and a number of consumer-
| oriented innovations. These include the 
| MeMenu panel for easy access to messaging 
| and social networking services, the new 
| Gwibber microblogging client, and an online 
| music store.

A global menu for Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Edition

,----[ Quote ]
| In the netbook edition for 10.10, weâre 
| going to have a single menu bar for all 
| applications, in the panel.
| 
| Our focus on netbooks has driven much of 
| the desktop design work at Canonical. There 
| are a number of constraints and challenges 
| that are particular to netbooks, and often 
| constraints can be a source of insight and 
| inspiration. In this case, wanting to make 
| the most of vertical space has driven the 
| decision to embrace the single menu 
| approach.

Ubuntu 10.04: Where Ubuntu goes from here

| hardware side is that Dell will support the 
| Ubuntu server and Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud 
| as an option on its cloud-server PowerEdge-
| C line.

Discover the new features in Ubuntu 10.04, the Lucid Lynx

,----[ Quote ]
| Appearance
| 
| Shiny! That's how we define Ubuntu's long 
| hoped-for departure from the dusky brown, 
| and it's a good look too. In the past few 
| years, all manners of people, those who use 
| Ubuntu and even those who don't, have 
| expressed their views on the sometime 
| dusty-sometime-dusky-always-brownish 
| 'Human' theme. According to Mark 
| Shuttleworth, we're now in store for five 
| more years of releases with this new theme, 
| which has been christened 'Light'.

Ubuntu â Leading Contender In Linux World?

,----[ Quote ]
| There are many Linux distributions out 
| there in the world; some are free (as in 
| beer), some are free (as in speech), some 
| are commercial products (you pay $$$ for 
| them), some are hybrids or combinations 
| thereof. The point here being that there is 
| no ONE Linux to rule them all. The Linux 
| that rules them all is the one chosen by 
| you to use as your primary operating system 
| on your computer.
