Ubuntu 6.06 LTS és pública

L’equip de Canonical ha fet pública la versió definitiva d’Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.

Que incopora, per la versió escritori:

• A new, very fast, graphical installer based on the Live CD
• Faster system startup and login
• Simplified menu organization
• Graphical shutdown process
• Easy access to power management settings with GNOME Power Manager (Ubuntu)
• Improved support for video playback
• Optional NetworkManager for convenient roaming between different wireless and wired networks
• OpenOffice.org 2.0.2, X.org 7.0
• Support for ongoing translation updates throughout the life of this release, for all supported desktop environments

i per la versió servidor:

• New kernels targeted at server platforms. The server kernels are tuned differently than the desktop kernels (providing better performance for server applications).
• Both low-end and “big iron” server kernels. The low-end server kernel is generic, and should work on the same equipment that the desktop kernel runs on. The high-end server kernel is geared towards systems with greater than 8 CPUs (ES7000 / Summit / BIGSMP).
• Turn-key LAMP installation for this common deployment scenario
• Improved support for clusters and SANs
• Thin client enhancements, including faster client startup, graphical boot process, reduced memory requirements, and sound device support
