Additionally, the Ubuntu Dock in Ubuntu The dock also shows a divider between pinned apps and running but not pinned apps. Those preferring a dark look can select one from the Appearance panel in the Settings app:. The Linux 5. Zstd compression is —years later than planned , mind— enabled for the main archive. This makes Ubuntu The latest version of Pipewire is included to make screensharing apps among others more useful with Wayland. However, Pipewire is still not default.
Updated software includes LibreOffice 7. Of note, the Firefox Snap app is now the default for new installs and apparently upgrades too.
This includes a new version of the desktop Calendar app which gains support for. A new Ubuntu installer is being developed alongside Ubuntu Because of that, they named it after mythical animal Jackalope. It had a new usplash screen, a new login screen and also support for both Wacom hotplugging and netbooks. It marked the first time that all of Ubuntu's core development moved to the Bazaar distributed revision control system. It was supported until April In an announcement to the community on 20 February , Mark Shuttleworth explained that 9.
The initial announcement of version 9. Other graphical improvements included a new set of boot up and shutdown splash screens, a new login screen that transitions seamlessly into the desktop and greatly improved performance on Intel graphics chipsets. The desktop installation of Ubuntu 9.
Shuttleworth first announced Ubuntu Canonical intends to provide support for Ubuntu The same dates apply to Kubuntu The new release includes, among other things, improved support for Nvidia proprietary graphics drivers, while switching to the open source Nvidia graphics driver, Nouveau , by default. Plymouth was also introduced allowing boot animations.
F-Spot provides normal user-level graphics-editing capabilities and GIMP remains available for download in the repositories. The distribution emphasizes the new importance of web services and social networking with integrated interfaces for posting to sites like Facebook and Twitter, complementing the IM and email integration already in Ubuntu.
On 4 March , it was announced that Lucid Lynx would feature a new theme, including new logos, taking Ubuntu's new visual style [ 95 ] into account:. We're drawn to Light because it denotes both warmth and clarity, and intrigued by the idea that "light" is a good value in software. Good software is "light" in the sense that it uses your resources efficiently, runs quickly, and can easily be reshaped as needed.
Ubuntu represents a break with the bloatware of proprietary operating systems and an opportunity to delight to those who use computers for work and play. More and more of our communications are powered by light, and in future, our processing power will depend on our ability to work with light, too. Our tagline was "Linux for Human Beings" and we used a palette reflective of the full range of humanity.
Our focus as a project was bringing Linux from the data center into the lives of our friends and global family. Critical responses to the new theme have been mixed. Ars Technica 's Ryan Paul said "The new themes and updated color palette are nice improvement for Ubuntu After testing the new theme for several hours, I feel like it's a step forward, but it still falls a bit short of my expectations. Some have learned to love the brown color scheme since it uniquely represents Ubuntu, while others wanted change.
The first point release , The naming of Ubuntu Ubuntu New features included the new Unity interface for the Netbook Edition, a new default photo manager, Shotwell , replacing F-Spot , the ability to purchase applications in the Software Center, and an official Ubuntu font used by default.
Starting with Ubuntu In reviewing Ubuntu Ubuntu aims to be novice-friendly, but this release is buggy and I think they missed the mark this time around. I'm limiting my recommendation of Support for Ubuntu He explained that Oneiric means "dreamy". In April Shuttleworth announced that Ubuntu Instead, The reasons given for removing it included poor user reception, lack of fit with the default user-case for Ubuntu, lack of polish and the application's lack of development maturity.
Other changes include removing Computer Janitor, as it caused broken systems for users, and the removal of the Synaptic package manager, which can optionally be installed via the Ubuntu Software Center. All removed applications will remain available to users for installation from the Ubuntu Software Center and repositories.
Changes in this release include a much faster start up time for the Ubuntu Software Center and refinements to Unity. This release also replaced the Banshee media player with Rhythmbox , as the default media player and dropped the Tomboy note-taking application and the supporting Mono framework as well.
In January Shuttleworth announced that Ubuntu Shuttleworth said that the HUD "will ultimately replace menus in Unity applications" but for Ubuntu Like other LTS releases The point releases and dates are: There are no further point releases of Ubuntu Writing about Ubuntu The developers have tackled a number of projects, some of which seemed misguided at the time, Unity being chief amongst them.
However, with the release of Not everything is roses and I did run into a few issues Jim Lynch reviewed Ubuntu Unity is finally coming into its own in this release, plus there are other enhancements that make upgrading worthwhile. Ubuntu is getting better and better with each release. Since Ubuntu I realize that many people out there have spurned Unity I was one of them for a long time , but the more I use it, the more I realize that Canonical really did their homework on how to help end users more efficiently interact with their computers.
For many, the idea of change is such a painful notion they wind up missing out on some incredible advancements. Unity is one such advancement. On 23 April Shuttleworth announced that Ubuntu As this will be the first of a series of three releases before the next LTS release, Shuttleworth indicated that it will include a refreshed look, with work to be done on typography and iconography.
The release is named for the species of Central American birds. The most well-known variety, the resplendent quetzal, is known for its beauty. The name is a good fit for Ubuntu, which aims to soar in the cloud, offer visual appeal without compromising function, and avoid smacking into closed windows. The Ubuntu Developer Summit held in May set the priorities for this release. They are forecast to include an improved boot up sequence and log-in screen, dropping Unity 2D in favor of lower hardware requirements for Unity 3D, wrap around dialogs and toolbars for the HUD and a "vanilla" version of Gnome-Shell as an option.
In July development versions of Ubuntu Also in late September it was announced that the version of Unity to be shipped with Ubuntu This move caused immediate controversy among Ubuntu users, particularly with regard to privacy issues, and caused Mark Shuttleworth to issue a statement indicating that this feature is not adware and labelled many of the objections "FUD" Fear, uncertainty and doubt.
Shuttleworth stated "What we have in Chill out. The degree of community push-back on the issue resulted in plans by the developers to make the dash and where it searches user configurable via a GUI setting dialogue. There were concerns that the setting dialogue would not be completed in time for the final version of Ubuntu In the week prior to the stable release of Ubuntu That directive requires that the "data subject has unambiguously given his consent" in situations where personal identifying information is sent.
The notice informs us Canonical reserves the right to share our keystrokes, search terms and IP address with a number of third parties, including Facebook, Twitter, Amazon and the BBC.
This feature is enabled by default, but can be turned off through the distribution's settings panel. He summed up his experiences, "After a day and a half of using Ubuntu During the first twenty-four hours Ubuntu spied on me, provided performance which was distinctly sub par, the interface regularly popped up errors sometimes so frequently the first pop-up wouldn't have faded out of view before the next one appeared , the update notification didn't work and it wasn't possible to turn off accessibility features through the graphical interface.
Adding insult to injury, the Unity dash kept locking up or losing focus while I was trying to use it and the operating system crashed more times than not while trying to shutdown or logout. Switching away from Unity to GNOME Fallback helped the performance issues I had experienced with the Dash, but it didn't remove the annoying pop-up errors and performance while usable still wasn't as good as I would expect.
And what really makes me scratch my head is Ubuntu In early November the Electronic Frontier Foundation made a statement on the shopping lens issue, "Technically, when you search for something in Dash, your computer makes a secure HTTPS connection to productsearch. If it returns Amazon products to display, your computer then insecurely loads the product images from Amazon's server over HTTP.
This means that a passive eavesdropper, such as someone sharing a wireless network with you, will be able to get a good idea of what you're searching for on your own computer based on Amazon product images.
It's a major privacy problem if you can't find things on your own computer without broadcasting what you're looking for to the world. This might come across as a bridge too far in terms of the outright commercialization of Ubuntu.
And it is an eery [ sic ] reminder of all the garbage that gets installed on Windows PCs by default, by the hardware companies. Is this where Ubuntu is going? Will you someday boot into your Ubuntu desktop only to find tons of commercial crapware clogging up your desktop by default? I sure hope not, as it will be another reason for people to avoid Ubuntu. However, the inclusion of the Amazon icon on the launcher, and the discontinuation of Unity 2D might irritate some people.
On 17 October , Shuttleworth announced that Ubuntu The Ubuntu Mark Shuttleworth announced on 31 October that by Ubuntu After each version of Ubuntu has reached its end-of-life time, its repositories are removed from the main Ubuntu servers and consequently the mirrors.
Thamrin FE Univ. Chat WhatsApp. Main article: Ubuntu operating system. The new style in Ubuntu is inspired by the idea of "Light". Visually, light is beautiful, light is ethereal, light brings clarity and comfort. Old version. Older version, still supported. Latest version. Latest preview version. You can contact us for more information. Canonical recommends that users and organisations upgrade to the latest LTS release or subscribe to Ubuntu Advantage for continued security coverage with ESM and kernel livepatching.
The Ubuntu Releases wiki has current information on previous and upcoming versions. Canonical maintains multiple kernel packages for each LTS version of Ubuntu, which serve different purposes. Several of the kernel packages address the need for kernels with specific performance priorities, for example, the low-latency kernel package. Others are focused on optimisation for a particular hypervisor, for example, the kernel packages which are named after public clouds.
You are recommended to use the detailed Ubuntu kernel guide to select the best Ubuntu kernel for your application. In general, all of the LTS kernel packages will use the same base version of the Linux kernel, for example, Ubuntu Some cloud-specific kernels may use a newer version in order to benefit from improved mechanisms in performance or security that are material to that cloud. These kernels are all supported for the full life of their underlying LTS release.
In addition, the kernel versions from the subsequent four releases are made available on the latest LTS release of Ubuntu. So Ubuntu These kernels use newer upstream versions and as a result, offer an easy path to newer features and newer classes of hardware for many users of Ubuntu.
Note however that these kernels 'roll' which means that they jump every six months until the next LTS. Large scale deployments that adopt the 'hardware enablement' or HWE kernels should manage those transitions explicitly. These newer HWE kernels are accompanied by a collection of userspace tools closely tied to the kernel and hardware, specifically X display enablement on newer graphics cards.
OpenStack release cadence follows Ubuntu release cadence. This means that a new version of OpenStack is released twice a year: in April and in October. Upgrades between consecutive OpenStack versions are fully supported. Then they can upgrade the underlying Ubuntu operating system.
In order to ensure smooth upgrades of OpenStack on Ubuntu, Canonical provides the automation framework based on the OpenStack Charms project. For more information on supported versions, see Charmed OpenStack documentation. The current release and two prior releases are supported, giving an effective support period of twelve months, subject to changes in the upstream release cycle.
Canonical also provides security maintenance for N-4 Kubernetes releases in the stable release channel.
