While Canonical failed once again to deliver that “professional-looking theme” everyone was expecting (promised since the time when
Ubuntu 9.10 was still under development), it introduced some nice themes created by various users of the community for the upcoming release of
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx): Ambiance and Radiance. Today, we announce the new wallpapers added by Canonical in Lucid Lynx.
Being an LTS (Long Term Support) release,
Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) will be definitely a stable, secure, reliable and good-looking
operating system! Without further introduction, we’ll let you enjoy the new wallpapers. Congrats to the authors of these beautiful
photographs!
On April 29th,
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) will become the 12th release of the
Ubuntu operating system.
Among some of the interesting features that will be present in
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx), we can mention the newly released GNOME 2.30 desktop environment, which brings lots and lots of improvements in many areas, such as Nautilus, Empathy, Evolution, Tomboy, Totem, Rhythmbox, and many more. Lucid’s
kernel packages will be based on
Linux kernel 2.6.32, and
applications such as Oracle’s OpenOffice.org 3.2, Mozilla
Firefox 3.6, Transmission 1.92 or Pidgin 2.6.6, Mozilla Thunderbird 3 and The GIMP 2.6.8 (all three available from the repositories) will also be present in the final version of
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx).
Don’t forget to visit our website next Thursday (April 22nd) for a detailed report on the
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) RC release, where we will unveil more of Lucid’s new features!
