Gutsy Gibbon (Ubuntu) Released
Leopard? Now what? It is another newer version of Ubuntu, 7.10. Last couple of weeks ago (18th Oct), Ubuntu 7.10 (codenamed Gutsy Gibbon) just official released. I have just finished download but not yet try. Sigh, we can’t find any Gutsy Gibbon cat.. 
By the way, it is a weird cat name.
What’s new?
- Officially support for writing to NTFS partitions
- Adds highly attractive user interface elements with the inclusion of Compiz Fusion technology. This is instantly cool demo-ware.
- Printer installation also works much better.Ubuntu even politely notifies you if the ink is low, something that has been a more gruesome task to discover on other platforms.
- Gnash, a free Flash-compatibility plug-in, will be attractive to many.
- Automated Firefox plugins are a major step forward in Linux-based usability, while still working within a robust security framework.
Ubuntu 7.10 will be supported for 18 months. The next version is Ubuntu 8.04, which is scheduled for release on April 24. Ubuntu 8.04 is a long-term support release, which means that it will be supported for three years.
