Ubuntu 8.10 Charges Up the Mountain (Linux Journal)

[Posted November 3, 2008 by ris]

Linux Journal takes a look at the final release of Ubuntu 8.10 "Intrepid Ibex". "Among Intrepid's shiny new packages are upgrades to core portions of the operating system including the kernel itself, which has been updated to the 2.6.27 release. The latest version of X.Org, 7.4, which appeared in September after months of repeated delays, is included, and boasts improved hot-plugging for keyboards, mice, and other input peripherals, a failsafe mechanism to provide better troubleshooting for startup glitches, and for many users, the end of the xorg.conf configuration file."
