They’ve passed their RC status and have moved into full Long-Term Release for Ubuntu Lucid Lynx — local mirrors are still showing the RC version, but it’s out!
What’s new?
- F-Spot replaces the GIMP
- PiTiVi video editor added
- GNOME 2.30
- New themes: Ambiance and Radiance
- New wallpaper
- Linux kernel 2.6.32
- New nVidia hardware driver
- Gwibber social media application
- Faster boot time, with a different look and feel on the bootsplash screen
- Ubuntu One adds contacts and bookmark sharing
- Ubuntu One music store integrated into Ryhthmbox
- Ubuntu Software Center 2.0
I’ve only played with the 10.04 Server edition so far, and the faster boot time is definately a big win (though some regressive network driver support still needed to be ironed out – hopefully sorted for the final release…)
Yay!!! Well done, guys!! Thanks for a new, even more sparkly LTS!
