Canonical present at CES which starts next Tuesday is not a smartphone, finally something to Shuttleworth’s comments were aimed weeks ago. No. Canonical present nothing more and nothing less than a TV with integrated Ubuntu on it .

Apple overtakes ubuntutv Canonical and Ubuntu TV presents

That’s what they say at least OMG! Ubuntu!, Which in turn link to the BBC news which quotes Jane Silber, Canonical’s CEO, stating that the company has launched to have its own booth at CES for the first time “ to promote a television first prototype of a ‘connected’ “.

a surprise, of course, especially considering that the television segment is one of the great battlefields of the giants of technology, Apple, Google, Microsoft-, those who now joins Canonical with a proposal that hopefully will be valid.

We look to see what benefits to provide that first prototype, but it is certainly a joy to see that Canonical is as ambitious as the most . Good luck

(Thanks to Efrainek by notice in the comments of a previous post!)

Without falling in disqualification, I’ll let you be the only insult. : P (So keep your happiness and I have mine If ?).

1) Want to jump on the bandwagon of the tablets and smartphones and regular users to use as guinea pigs (first with the netbook remix, now with unity)

Are you required to use Ubuntu? Just tell me yes or no.

Tell

Or who came to your house with a gun and used you as a guinea pig toward Unity. If so, to report it!.

Do not you realized that you could have used XFCE, LXDE, KDE with Ubuntu, rather completito? Well find out! You were not forced to use Unity, or cooperate, as I do not other distros.

must see many locks are placed before the chains. pfff .. My condolences.


2) Try to save costs for a single development team focusing on Unity

course, and certainly many distributions now, innovated his own shell, but still keeping all environments alike, they paste on a free OS and free you have not paid either $ 1 or donated . (If so, you were not commenting here Mintero: P). Since it was late seeing no one around here.

not that team focuses on Unity. As far as I know, NO PARTNER IS REQUIRED TO WORK WITH UNITY.

If they wish

WHY NOT? If you want to work with Kubuntu KDE, do it! You have the doors open.

I

addition to offering the best KDE (in Kubuntu, for me yes!), all integrated into KDE, GTK applications with full support and a huge repository.

Focus your development? I’d like someday to innovate, and keep something for free. What a waste of paragraph. Rejoice! I took it into account. : P

if there were any user who does not want to put your ass, eliminated the possibility of using classic gnome … what the heck, now that I see!: If you had installed gnome classic eliminate it! ! …. making lentils

Hahaha. Do you speak first and then your ignorance? Well! Come on.

not if you already know, but I’ll give the explanation (though I think yes, but as noted you’re Mintero, you like to step explanations).

classic Gnome, 2.32, has dependencies on GTK 2, and using Gnome 3, had to remove the dependencies of GTK 2, and thus was eliminated Gnome 2.32. Since there is now GTK 3, a completely renovated toolkit, and that even the GTK # (Your bindings) are in version 2.

3

gnome, you can use Gnome Classic, if you did not know, only the Gnome 3 without shell.

get Gnome 2.32 (do not know if doing the repository, since I use Debian Testing) is in the repository or CD (remove space, it also removed), and install it, would cause great instability problem and as ubuntu think enough on the end user, and so no stalls to “Minteros” pulling pests to heaven, then, was the best.

Could I ask you spend a distribution that uses GNOME 3-Shell, and also has the ability to use Gnome 2.32 now?

If so, please! Let me know so you avoid rather than comment, go lowering it and be happy, and not in strings Canonical constraints. Yes? (One advantage to get on the self-esteem). : P

face of protests, raised his chin and loose in any case this is a democracy (and I thought it was a free community where everyone was entitled to be heard).

Hehe! As someone who hurt my comment. Sure, still with pitorreo (test it). You’re not someone who I named in this post? No need to change their nick: P (If Rodrigo ?).

I. The quality of a distribution do not think that is measured by its popularity (see eg slackware).

Ok, now let’s all use Slackware, but not popular then, knowing that all we use. And when it is, name another distro that is not popular to use, and say that quality has not become popular.

I like your analogy

. Demonstrate pure intellectuality. (Seriously, until I stopped laughing when I read it: P) …. I mean, I’m tired! : S

I know that for debianites ubuntu is like for David Bisbal heavy metal …

You said it yourself, so are most debianites. With gigantic egos, are the “scholars” of Linux, as long as they throw Ubuntu on the floor, and talk about Ubuntu as metalheads speak ill of Justin Bieber.

And worse, listen more Justin Bieber to criticize the metal with which the vent. Strange things we see is not it? That’s an intellectual and use the time. Great genius. I’m going with my comment on debianites best reasons.

that, I use Debian Testing with KDE 4.6.5, I’m in forums of them, because most of the comments are disgusting when they refer to Ubuntu.

left in its dawn of resentment, and they could live happily supporting each other, between 4. If

In fact, if you’ve read a recent article here at Mint muylinux surveys ask for Mint leaves time basis ubuntu for debian.

minteros

that, hate Ubuntu, rather than the man who lay with his wife. Not surprisingly, were not born yesterday estimadito. :)

as they prefer anything other than Ubuntu, as it gives them hives. They think based on Ubuntu as they have done since they left (and will do), and thus be better able to fill the mouth, saying that “mint is better than ubuntu and is not based on him.”

I keep expecting

become independent of Debian. I say for you, because by my no problem. Or load in my life, and I can live happy.

Now Do you? I think not! At least that Mint is based on Debian and Ubuntu as we know it is like the metalheads Bisbal (According to your analogy of great years of research lol) … .. Pffff ….

see …. Did no insult me? Nah! I leave you. I’ll help: “Mint is better, but 95% dependent on Ubuntu. Debian and Ubuntu for serious people for beginners, does nothing and then …. Debian is still better. “

Eh … I

with what I said, convinced that I keep using Debian Testing. Believe me that it was going to be changed by Ubuntu, now I hate it. : P haha ​​

seriously, do you ever worked with Ubuntu? In doing so, you do it with Debian Did you know? If not, ask a prominent developer who spends his free time working and not fanatic blogs linuxers a career goal. : P

Canonical will extend the support of their ‘LTS’ to 5 years

first_main_article” class=”article readability=”44″>

Newsmaker of the good and the network that crosses over ubuntera and Tux, and Canonical’s announcement is a very delicious music to the ears of professional users and computer maintainers include: support versions ‘LTS’ is extended to 5 years . Yabadabadú

Graphic Canonical extend the support of their LTS to 5 years

As you know, the normal versions of Ubuntu come out every 6 months with 18 months of guaranteed support (updates), but every two years launching a version of “special” known as ‘LTS’ ( Long Term Support or long-term support) with 3 years support for desktop publishing and 5 for editing server.

Canonical

match the situation of the two editions and their next release, scheduled for late April 2012, be with us until 2017 as you can see in the image header. Same for the ‘LTS’ to come. You can take a look at the calendar to start Ubuntu 12.04 reckoning.

No doubt you could write a book full of valid criticisms to Ubuntu / Canonical, but in all honesty would have to publish a sequel full of praise, among which would figure prominently this notice or, in short, this “new feature in Ubuntu ” (extendable to the rest of the family, of course). Applause, please.

Canonical has a lot of luck …

first_main_article” class=”article readability=”52″>Glancing

fresh from the Ubuntu 11.10 I realize once again all the effort Canonical has made to unify the user experience on your system . And what is left. But more importantly, the company is Mark Shuttleworth gradually forming its own platform , and if it comes to getting your order before the expiration of the current pattern of use of desktop systems, would a very great news for business bases focused on GNU / Linux and aimed at the common user, and with a little effort and a little more time, too professional.

tux apple Canonical have much luck ...

problem is that the only chance you have GNU / Linux on the desktop is Ubuntu commercial and Unity , for many reasons that may try to include in the above definition of “own platform” : software, services, brand image and unified user experience. It does not have anything else.

This is a problem because Canonical is not Apple, it has no money and even less control every component in your system . For example, icloud seems a copy of Ubuntu One … much improved. On the software side, the Open Source free will is sometimes counterproductive, and while values ​​such as Firefox or LibreOffice is hard to stay out of play from one day to another, changes such as Evolution for Thunderbird, Rhythmbox and Banshee or F-Spot by Shotwell, are symptomatic of the difficulty faced by Canonical, especially if it aims to provide a compact user experience .

What is GNU / Linux is adapting to each user ends up giving you distribution or creating their own experience fragmentation often positive but around an obstacle in the path of GNU / Linux on the desktop . A Ubuntu half will suit this situation, as it is by that stands out from other distributions, with differences but also similarities to what’s wrong with Android, but with these problems in terms of software.

As it is, Ubuntu should triumph “real” as the third desktop system in a couple of years at most . It pays the entire ecosystem GNU / Linux (which does not mean that we are already within it can not choose an alternative that better suits our tastes and needs … as more experienced users, as a result, Ubuntu).

So good luck to Canonical ., no matter how undemocratic they may seem at times their decisions.

11.10 Ubuntu boots slower, what was the fast start, Canonical?

first_main_article” class=”article readability=”49″>

few months ago was very fashionable to debate on instant start operating systems (Splashtop was the most popular system) and boot times also be reduced to the minimum pursued in various distributions , and especially one of them: Ubuntu.

 Ubuntu 500x378 11.10 UbuntuBoot slower start, what was the fast start, Canonical?

Canonical

was very heavy with the topic : in MuyLinux we, for example, claimed that some time down the 10 seconds or even 5 seconds to boot a system with Ubuntu, and distribution developers seemed particularly aimed at achieving this reduction in boot times.

Let’s jump

this: today and Canonical or other developers talk about reducing boot times . The focus is on the desktop environments in the cloud and in-store applications. That aspect has been neglected so fundamental that seemed just a year ago.

study shows they have done on Phoronix, and which have compared the start of a preliminary version of Ubuntu Ubuntu 11.10 to 11.04, and WIN have shown the charts and start times with different teams , from netbooks to basic desktop PC hardware configurations pretty decent. Data:

ASUS Eee PC

  • (Intel Atom 330, HD SATA): 31.4 s in Natty, 59.62 s in oneiric
  • NetTop ASRock (Intel Atom 330, HD SATA) 25 s in Natty, 58 s in oneiric
  • MSI

  • NetTop (Intel Atom 330, HD SATA) 25 s in Natty, 27 s in oneiric
  • AMD Opteron 2348 (quad-core, SSD) in Natty 7.78 s, 11.09 s in oneiric
  • Intel

  • Sandy Bridge, SSD: s in Natty 24.66, 35.26 s in oneiric
  • Intel Core 2 Duo T9300, SATA HD: 23.20 s in Natty, 31.69 s in oneiric
  • Ocelot takes a lot more (in some cases, twice) to boot than its predecessor (I would say that in turn also lost about Maverick Meerkat bellows) and Canonical seems clear that this factor has been neglected.

    The question is, of course, if the start times were really important to Canonical (and for us, the users), or was simply an effort to give that talk . Personally I think those are important start-up times for users, but not crucial, and Canonical’s attitude in this regard is at least disappointing.

    Ubuntu Friendly avanza, un acierto de Canonical

    Las listas de hardware compatible (HCLs) de diversas distribuciones Linux han sido la forma tradicional en la que los desarrolladores “certificaban” qué sistemas estaban soportados sin problemas para su software, pero Canonical ha querido ir un paso más allá con su proyecto Ubuntu Friendly.

    ubuntu friendly 500x312 Ubuntu Friendly avanza, un acierto de Canonical

    La inciativa lleva en marcha desde junio de 2011, y la idea era la de que los usuarios y empresas tuvieran una forma sencilla de confirmar que sus equipos funcionan sin problemas con alguna de las versiones de Ubuntu.

    Esa información sería incluida en una web de Canonical -aún en fase alpha- que permitirá conocer a los usuarios la compatibilidad de esos equipos con la distribución.

    Una de las responsables de esta división, Ara Pulido, ha publicado una entrada en su blog en la que precisamente confirma que la marcha del programa Ubuntu Friendly es buena, y que es muy fácil contribuir al proyecto. Para ello hay que:

    • Instalar el repositorio PPA
    • Instalar la última versión del paquete Checkbox (que es el que analiza la compatibilidad de nuestro sistema)
    • Ejecutar las pruebas (“System Testing”) y enviar el resultado a Launchpad.

    Con esos datos, explica Pulido, Canonical irá no solo construyendo esa base de datos de sistemas compatibles, sino puliendo la propia aplicación de pruebas para que entre otras cosas sea compatible con futuras versiones de Ubuntu.
