Ubuntu Gusty GibbonThe Release Candidate of Ubuntu 7.10 has been available for some time already but just yesterday, October 18th, the final version was officially launched.

A few of the new features:

  • Gnome 2.20.
  • Compiz Fusion, the reunion of Compiz and Beryl, enabled by default.
  • Quicker user switching.
  • Firefox plugins can be installed right from the operating system.
  • X, screen and video drivers can be easily configured from a new GUI.
  • Automatic printer detection and installation.
  • Now it's possible writing, as well as reading, to NTFS partitions.

So, wait no more, download Ubuntu 7.10 now and tell us about it.

I still need to find the time to upgrade Flenser, Woodcarver and Amber (by the way, it seems a System 76 Pangolin made it to the home page of Ubuntu), hopefully I'll do it quite soon.
