[Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu 10.10 released

2010-10-10 Thread Julien Lavergne
Lubuntu 10.10 is now available :

 * Torrent : http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/lubuntu-10.10.iso.torrent
 * Direct download : http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/lubuntu-10.10.iso
 * Md5: http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/md5sum.txt

== What is Lubuntu ? ==

Lubuntu is an Ubuntu derivated using the LXDE desktop. It's designed to
be a lightweight and easy-to-use desktop environment.

Lubuntu is actually not part of the Ubuntu family, and not build with
the current Ubuntu infrastructure. This release is considered as a «
stable beta », a result that could be a final and stable release if we
was included in the Ubuntu family.

== Features ==

 * Based on the lightweight LXDE desktop environment.
 * Pcmanfm 0.9.7, a fast and lightweight files manager using gio/gvfs.
 * Lxdm, a lightweight GTK display manager.
 * Chromium, the open-source version of Google Chrome.
 * ... and, of course, based on Ubuntu 10.10

See the complete list of applications on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Applications


== Improvements since Lubuntu 10.04 ==

=== Applications by default ===
Programs installed by default have been updated
 * Added :
Update-notifier, to get notification for available updates.
Xpad, to create quick notes (similar to Tomboy).
Ace-of-penguins, to provide some games

 * Removed 
Parcellite, which is not maintained upstream, is less useful since most
of copy/paste bugs was gone with pcmanfm 0.9.X
Pyneighborhood was replaced by gvfs support of pcmanfm.

 * Changes
LXtask replace Xfce4-taskmanager for tasks monitoring.
Evince is now used for reading PDF, ePDFview have some serious memory
leaks.

=== New theme ===
A new and fresh theme, made by Rafael Laguna, is available.

=== Installer slideshow ===
New slideshow is available during the installation, to describe Lubuntu
and its features.

=== Indicators supports ===
Lxpanel now support Ubuntu indicators applets. This feature is turn off
by default, but you can activate it by adding the "Indicators applet”.

=== New extras packages ===
 * A new meta-package (lubuntu-core) is available to install only core
packages of Lubuntu.
 * A new meta-package (lubuntu-restricted-extras) is available to
install restricted packages for Lubuntu (such as flash, java and extra
codecs for chromium)

=== LXDE updates ===
 * LXDE is now HAL-free. Lubuntu still depends on HAL for CD-burner, but
by removing it, you can obtain a HAL-free system.
 * New lxappareance from LXDE git (without Openbox integration)

And the usual updates of LXDE and Ubuntu packages included in Lubuntu.

== Releases notes and known issues ==
The release notes, with a list of known problems are available on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReleaseNotes/MaverickMeerkat


== Specific Lubuntu changes ==

Lubuntu still contains modifications not available in the official
repository, you can see them in the Lubuntu PPA [1] :
 * Autologin support in ubiquity (LP: #546445)
 * Support Install only mode in ubiquity
 * Support for lubuntu-restricted package in ubiquity

== Reporting bugs ==
You can find information on how to report bug on this wiki page :
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReportingBugs

== Thanks ==

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu 10.10 released

2010-10-10 Thread Phill Whiteside
There is now a secondary server area at http://phillw.net/lubuntu-10.10.iso as
Julien said, please use the torrents as I do not want to fall out with my
temporary web hoster.

If someone could down load it and check the iso as per
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/CheckCD and make sure the
md5 is okay, I'll add it as a secondary server to the wiki area.

Thanks,

Phill.

Any Zsync link please? I have already downloaded Ubuntu 10.10. I think Zsync
can save some B/w.

Thanks.
