Hardy Heron and Stuff…..
Hello there. I can’t believe it’s been nearly a month since I wrote anything. Recently I’ve found myself pre-occupied with other things so I’ve been neglecting you. I’m sorry!
There has been a major change in the Ubuntu landscape since the last time I put finger to keyboard. Hardy Heron has arrived, Ubuntu’s new long term supported release! I’ve been running the pre-release version on my laptop for a while (until I accidently smashed the machine the other night) so it hardly surprises me that people installing it for the first time are finding it to be the best Ubuntu Linux yet! Of course, a few bugs remain, but if you find one, join me and hundreds of other users in reporting it and helping the developers to make Ubuntu better! It’s fun, and you might even get your name up in lights!
One thing I have noticed is that the validated hardware list has grown even larger with this release. It’s now easier than ever to grab yourself a laptop, desktop or server certified to work with Ubuntu. Seeing a good range of HP servers in the list is great for me as they’re the most commonly used ones at work - Hoorah!
So, that’s about it for now. Catch you soon…
