Ubuntu 21.04 "Hirsute Hippo" brings with it:
Wayland as the default display server (but obviously you can log into the Xorg session)
Pipewire support
Linux kernel 5.11
nftables is now the default backend for the firewall
Added support for smartcard authentication (via pam_sss 28)
GNOME Shell 3.85.5 with a series of GTK applications updated to GNOME 40. We have chosen not to update the Shell to the latest version to allow compatibility with the extensions used to recreate the typical Ubuntu look
Improvements in the extension that deals with the management of icons on the desktop with the addition, among many things, of support for drag and drop</span></pre><pre class="tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta" data-placeholder="Traduzione" dir="ltr" id="tw-target-text" style="text-align: left;"><span class="Y2IQFc" lang="en"> </span></pre><p><img height="264" src="https://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/84cb7d7d-Hirsuit_Hippo_Colour_takeover.svg" width="630" /></p><div class="pinit-wrapper" style="cursor: pointer; left: 279px; opacity: 0; position: absolute; top: 1143.9px; visibility: hidden; z-index: 9999;"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://ubuntulandia.blogspot.com/2021/04/rilasciata-ubuntu-2104-hirsute-hippo.html&media=https://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/84cb7d7d-Hirsuit_Hippo_Colour_takeover.svg&description=Rilasciata Ubuntu 21.04 Hirsute Hippo assieme alle sue derivate ufficiali." style="display: block; outline: none;" target="_blank"><img class="pinimg" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh6NC5bVDcd_Ph8lV-rcYfcuMvRBDZ7on7cPdBUK9G0U56KCpISFUsaP4BTPhD3elTMkHG3fv85KU3tZ50HOe2Um3a2iXjGeL0yqC5oWbnga3kMOk0WY2zbzEAd3Zu5iSVXtcZhG0NyjSs/s1600/pinterestx1_72.png" style="-moz-box-shadow: none; -o-box-shadow: none; -webkit-box-shadow: none; background: transparent; border: 0; box-shadow: none; margin: 0; padding: 0;" title="Pin on Pinterest" /></a></div><pre class="tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta" data-placeholder="Traduzione" dir="ltr" id="tw-target-text" style="text-align: left;"><span class="Y2IQFc" lang="en">Here is the list of all releases via Distrowatch</span></pre><p><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, generic" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #fdffe3; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Canonical has released<span> </span></span><a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://distrowatch.com/ubuntu" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, generic; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Ubuntu</a><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, generic" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #fdffe3; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><span> </span>21.04

machines can join an Active Directory (AD) domain at installation for
central configuration. AD administrators can now manage Ubuntu
workstations, which simplifies compliance with company policies. Ubuntu
21.04 adds the ability to configure system settings from an AD domain
controller. Using a Group Policy Client, system administrators can
specify security policies on all connected clients, such as password
policies and user access control, and Desktop environment settings, such
as login screen, background and favourite apps. Ubuntu 21.04 uses
Wayland by default, a significant leap forward in security. Firefox, OBS
Studio and many applications built with Electron and Flutter take
advantage of Wayland automatically, for smoother graphics and better
fractional scaling.</span><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, generic" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #fdffe3; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-size: 15px;

MATE Desktop team released maintenance updates for the current stable
1.24 release of MATE. We've updated the MATE packaging in Debian to
incorporate all these bug fixes and translation updates and synced those
packages to Ubuntu so they all feature in this 21.04 release. There are
no new features, just fixes. Ayatana Indicators: A highlight of the
Ubuntu MATE 20.10 release was the transition to Ayatana Indicators. You
can read the 20.10 release notes to learn what Ayatana Indicators are
and why this transition will be beneficial in the long term. We've added
new versions of Ayatana Indicators including ‘Indicators' settings to
the Control Center, which can be used to configure the installed
indicators.</span><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, generic" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #fdffe3; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal;

team have announced the release of version 21.04 of their
multimedia-focused distribution. The project's latest release will be
supported through to January 2022 and includes several updated
utilities: "<span class="Quote">This release includes Plasma 5.21.4, the
full-featured desktop environment made by KDE. It uses the Materia
theme and the icons are Papirus icons. Studio Controls has seen further
development as its own independent project and has been updated to
version 2.1.4. Ardour 6.6+ (a future 6.7 snapshot). Ardour has been
updated to version 6.6+, meaning this is a git snapshot of what will
eventually be Ardour 6.7. This had to be done because Ardour 6.5 started
to fail to build with a newer library introduced into the Ubuntu
archives, and could only be resolved with this snapshot. We hope to have
Ardour 6.7 in via official updates once released. Agordejo is new to
Ubuntu Studio this release. It was brought-in for those unsatisfied with
RaySession's audio session management but found New Session Manager's
interface to be too old and clunky.</span>" Additional details can be found in the project's <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://ubuntustudio.org/2021/04/ubuntu-studio-21-04-released/">release announcement</a>. <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://ubuntustudio.org/download/">Download</a>: <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/20.10/release/ubuntustudio-20.10-dvd-amd64.iso">ubuntustudio-20.10-dvd-amd64.iso</a> (3,650MB, <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/20.10/release/SHA256SUMS">SHA256</a>, <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/20.10/release/SHA256SUMS.gpg">signature</a>, <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/20.10/release/ubuntustudio-20.10-dvd-amd64.iso.torrent">torrent</a>, <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubuntustudio&pkglist=true&version=21.04#pkglist">pkglist</a>).</span></p><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPM3NGzLAlonLdsNFcACRf3k01EDvOXPU2gMZoPeZBuxhH5J_an3X6zYd_K0K85_bRjlR9blqk1bgpeGAQWZvTQlyzMAApi1EoBMf8oC6Kk626R6n7TgKlKSem7eQeO7I3QF2xz9vnc7Ii/s1920/Ubuntu-21.04-STUDIO-Hirsute-Hippo.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPM3NGzLAlonLdsNFcACRf3k01EDvOXPU2gMZoPeZBuxhH5J_an3X6zYd_K0K85_bRjlR9blqk1bgpeGAQWZvTQlyzMAApi1EoBMf8oC6Kk626R6n7TgKlKSem7eQeO7I3QF2xz9vnc7Ii/w640-h360/Ubuntu-21.04-STUDIO-Hirsute-Hippo.png" width="640" /></a></div><p>Jonathan Riddell has announced the release of <a class="keychainify-checked" href="https://distrowatch.com/kubuntu">Kubuntu</a> 21.04, a brand-new version of the project's official Ubuntu flavour featuring the KDE Plasma desktop: "<span class="Quote">The

Kubuntu has seen many updates for other applications, both in our default install, and installable from the Ubuntu archive."

The new release, which will receive three years of support, ships with version 1.24 of the MATE desktop and introduces a firmware update tool called fwupd. "Those of you who follow the desktop Linux news will know that upstream MATE Desktop recently released version 1.24. Ubuntu MATE 20.04 is shipping with MATE Desktop 1.24. Thus, all of the improvements in MATE Desktop 1.24 are present in Ubuntu MATE 20.04 LTS. Since the last LTS we worked on the following: added multiple coloured theme variations as one-click installs for those of you who simply don't like Chelsea Cucumber; added experimental ZFS install option; added GameMode from Feral Interactive; fixed several crashers in Brisk Menu and added keyboard navigation; fixed panel layout switching which is now stable and reliable via MATE Tweak Tweak and Ubuntu MATE Welcome; fixed rendering window controls on HiDPI displays; fixed irregular icon sizes in MATE Control Center and made them render nicely on HiDPI displays."

The question of support for 32-bit x86 has been <a href="https://bryanquigley.com/pages/papers/ubuntu-drop-i386.html">raised and seriously discussed</a> in Ubuntu developer and community forums since 2014. That’s how we make decisions.<img width="640" height="357" alt="" src="https://admin.insights.ubuntu.com/wp-content/uploads/a105/Screenshot-from-2019-06-24-17-41-20.png"><p>After the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release we had <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2018-May/040307.html">extensive threads</a> on the ubuntu-devel list and also consulted Valve in detail on the topic. None of those discussions raised the passions we’ve seen here, so we felt we had sufficient consensus for the move in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. We do think it’s reasonable to expect the community to participate and to find the right balance between enabling the next wave of capabilities and maintaining the long tail. Nevertheless, in this case it’s relatively easy for us to change plan and enable natively in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS the applications for which there is a specific need.<p>We will also work with the WINE, Ubuntu Studio and gaming communities to use container technology to address the ultimate end of life of 32-bit libraries; it should stay possible to run old applications on newer versions of Ubuntu. Snaps and LXD enable us both to have complete 32-bit environments, and bundled libraries, to solve these issues in the long term.<p>There is real risk to anybody who is running a body of software that gets little testing. The facts are that most 32-bit x86 packages are hardly used at all. That means fewer eyeballs, and more bugs. Software continues to grow in size at the high end, making it very difficult to even build new applications in 32-bit environments. You’ve heard about Spectre and Meltdown – many of the mitigations for those attacks are unavailable to 32-bit systems.<p>This led us to stop creating Ubuntu install media for i386 last year and to consider dropping the port altogether at a future date. It has always been our intention to maintain users’ ability to run 32-bit applications on 64-bit Ubuntu – our kernels specifically support that.<p>The Ubuntu developers remain committed as always to the principle of making Ubuntu the best open source operating system across desktop, server, cloud, and IoT. We look forward to the ongoing engagement of our users in continuing to make this principle a reality.Hugohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10442806299499176047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542860820009090468.post-32874890547199019512019-10-06T13:18:00.001-05:002019-10-06T13:18:41.405-05:00Ubuntu MATE 19.10 Release Notes<p><strong>Ubuntu MATE 19.10 is a significant improvement over Ubuntu MATE 18.04 and 19.04. The theme of this release is to address as many <em>"paper-cut"</em> issues as possible. Every new feature in Ubuntu MATE 19.10 has been added to address bugs or poor user experience. Many long standing paper-cuts are finally resolved. Make yourself a cup of tea ☕ and get a slice of cake before reading on to find out what we've been working on for the last 25 weeks.</strong><p>We are preparing Ubuntu MATE 19.10 (Eoan Ermine) for distribution on <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EoanErmine/ReleaseSchedule">October 17th, 2019</a> With this <em>Beta</em> pre-release, you can see what we are trying out in preparation for our next (stable) version.<h5>What works?</h5><p>People tell us that Ubuntu MATE is stable. You may, or may not, agree.<p>Ubuntu MATE <em>Beta Releases</em> are <em>NOT</em> recommended for:<ul><li>Regular users who are not aware of pre-release issues
<li>Anyone who needs a stable system
<li>Anyone uncomfortable running a possibly frequently broken system
<li>Anyone in a production environment with data or workflows that need to be reliable</li></ul><p>Ubuntu MATE <em>Beta Releases</em> are recommended for:<ul><li>Regular users who want to help us test by finding, reporting, and/or fixing bugs
<li>Ubuntu MATE, MATE, and GTK+ developers.</li></ul><p><img alt="Ubuntu MATE 19.10" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/eoan/eoan-ermine-desktop.png"><br><b>Ubuntu MATE 19.10 - <i>Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger</i></b><h4>Ubuntu MATE 19.10 - paper cut ️ release</h4><p>I have not been completely happy with the quality of recent Ubuntu MATE releases. All the important stuff works but there have been niggly issues that by themselves are not deal breakers, but in aggregate are frustrating and spoil the experience. I've been focused on resolving these issues during the 19.10 development cycle and you'll see that every new feature in Ubuntu MATE 19.10 addresses one of these paper-cuts. We've achieved this by expanding our QA team significantly and Ubuntu MATE 19.10 has been subject to weekly testing throughout this cycle. I can't thank our QA team enough for highlighting the issues that need attention.<p>Most of <strong>the paper-cut effort has been focused around the window manager, the panel and the indicators</strong> as these are the main touching points of the desktop environment that users interact with.<h5>MATE Desktop 1.22.2</h5><p>Upstream <a href="https://mate-desktop.org/">MATE Desktop</a> recently released 1.22.2. All the updates are present in Ubuntu MATE 19.10 plus I've cherry picked a good deal of fixes from MATE Desktop development snapshots. In total, 67 additional patches have been applied to the MATE Desktop packages in Ubuntu MATE 19.10 to finesse this release prior to launch day Included in those patches are fixes for <strong>locking the screen on resume from suspend</strong>, adding a <strong>Media Information extension to the file manager</strong>, <strong>performance improvements for the window manager</strong> and <strong>cycling external displays using</strong> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>p</kbd>. All this work has also been submitted to <a href="https://www.debian.org/">Debian</a>.<p>Since the final beta we also:<ul><li>Fixed irregular icon sizes in MATE Control Center and made them render nicely on HiDPI displays.
<li>Fixed Caja extensions not loading.
<li>Fixed <code>mate-power-manager</code> so it uses upower-glib <code>get_devices2()</code>.
<li>Fixed a crasher in MATE Dock Applet due to an Attribute error in <code>adjust_minimise_pos()</code>.
<li>Fixed Codec updates in Software Boutique.
<li>Updated Advanced MATE Menu to use the <code>start-here</code> icon, so all menus behave consistently.
<li>Updated the Ubuntu MATE Guide.</li></ul><h6>Window Manager improvements</h6><p>Marco is the Window Manager for MATE Desktop and in Ubuntu MATE 19.10 it brings a number of new features and fixes.<p><strong>XPresent support is properly fixed</strong> which means that <strong>screen tearing is now a thing of the past</strong> and <strong>frame times in games is further improved</strong>. <strong>Invisible window corners are finally here!</strong> Invisible window corners mean that windows can be easily resized without having to precisely grab the window corners. <strong>HiDPI rendering improvements</strong> fix a number of rendering problems that were present in various themes. <strong>Alt+Tab navigation</strong> makes it possible to traverse the application switcher via keyboard and mouse. We've also <strong>cleaned up the window controls</strong> by removing the menu button. The menu is still available either by right clicking the window title bar or pressing <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Space</kbd>.<h6>Compiz & Compton</h6><p>The main reason we've been shipping shipping Compton and Compiz in Ubuntu MATE was to offer a solution to screen tearing or improve game performance. Compiz has invisible window borders and also has a great screen magnifier suitable for visually impaired users. However, now that...<ul><li>Magnus (see below) provides screen magnification
<li>Marco supports invisible windows borders
<li>Marco has improved Alt+Tab behaviour
<li>Marco is free from screen tearing
<li>Marco frame performance when gaming is further improved
<li>Using Compton and Compiz with MATE Desktop introduces other bugs and integration issues</li></ul><p>...it is <strong>time to remove Compiz and Compton from the default Ubuntu MATE install</strong>. The fundamental reasons for including them no longer exist.<p>If you love Compiz, it can be installed by opening a terminal and running the following command:<pre>sudo apt install compiz compiz-core compiz-mate compiz-plugins compiz-plugins-default
</pre><p>Only having one window manager to target means we can promptly deliver new features and minimise development effort. Which brings us to...<h6>New Key-bindings</h6><p>The key-bindings for window tiling have only worked on full keyboards ⌨️ with a 10-key pad. Few laptops have a 10-key pad and not all keyboards have a 10-key either. There are some well known key-bindings from other platforms that were not recognised in Ubuntu MATE. So, we've had a think and come up with this:<ul><li><b>Maximise Window:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Up</kbd><li><b>Restore Window:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Down</kbd><li><b>Title Window right:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Right</kbd><li><b>Title Window left:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Left</kbd><li><b>Center Window:</b> <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>c</kbd><li><b>Title Window to upper right corner:</b> <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Right</kbd><li><b>Title Window to upper left corner:</b> <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Left</kbd><li><b>Title Window to lower right corner:</b> <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Right</kbd><li><b>Title Window to lower left Corner:</b> <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Left</kbd><li><b>Shade Window:</b> <kbd>Control</kbd> + <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>s</kbd></li></ul><p>I'm happy with these key-bindings as it is now possible to tile a window to all screen quadrants using any keyboard form factor.<p>We updated the application launcher key-bindings, some of these have existed in Ubuntu MATE for a while:<ul><li><b>Cycle external displays:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>p</kbd><li><b>Lock Screen:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>L</kbd><li><b>Screenshot a rectangle:</b> <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>PrintScr</kbd><li><b>Open File Manager:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>e</kbd><li><b>Open Terminal:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>t</kbd><li><b>Open Control Center:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>i</kbd><li><b>Open Search:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>s</kbd><li><b>Open Task Manager:</b> <kbd>Control</kbd> + <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Escape</kbd><li><b>Open System Information:</b> <kbd>Super</kbd> + <kbd>Pause</kbd></li></ul><p>The key-bindings compliment existing well established alternatives. So if <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>t</kbd> (Terminal) and <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>L</kbd> (Lock Screen) are ingrained in your muscle memory they are still available too. You can find all the keyboard shortcuts documented in the <strong>Getting Started section of Ubuntu MATE Welcome</strong>.<h5>Panel & Indicator improvements</h5><p>This is where a good deal of effort has been invested. Let's break it down.<h6>Brisk Menu and MATE Dock Applet</h6><p><a href="https://github.com/getsolus/brisk-menu">Brisk Menu</a> is under the Solus GitHub organisation, but it's been a couple of years since it had a new release. The Solus Project gave me administrative access to the Brisk Menu repo and I've made a new release. Thanks to the efforts of a couple of Ubuntu MATE contributors several bug fixes have landed too, which includes <strong>resolving frequent crashers in Brisk Menu, preventing a scrollbar always appearing in the category column</strong> of the menu and <strong>silencing sounds firing as you rollover menu entries</strong>.<p>The previous maintainer of <a href="https://github.com/ubuntu-mate/mate-dock-applet">MATE Dock Applet</a> announced that he no longer had the time ⌛️ to develop the project. Ubuntu MATE has taken on ownership and we've already published a couple of new releases which include fixes for frequent crashes.<h6>MATE Panel</h6><p>MATE Panel has had a long standing bug fixed that caused it to crash when the panel was reset or replaced. This was most noticeable when switching panel layouts via MATE Tweak and could result in the panel layout being left incomplete or entirely absent. This bug is now fixed! MATE Tweak has been updated to neatly integrate with with fixed MATE Panel behaviour so that <strong>layout switching is now 100% reliable</strong>.<h6>Indicators</h6><p>A bug which resulted in <strong>oversized icons in indicators is finally resolved</strong>.<p><b>Before</b> <br><img alt="Before" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/blog/indicators-before.png"><p><b>After</b> <br><img alt="After" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/blog/indicators-after.png"><p>However, it turned out some of the bugs were due to the icons themselves. Over icons have been refactored ️️ to correct their resolutions or aspect ratio; as a result the panel and indicators both scale correctly.<p>A race condition that could result in <strong>two network status icons being displayed is fixed</strong>, and <strong>when connected via VPN, lock icons are now overlayed on the Network Indicator</strong>. The battery indicator is improved and now has a larger <strong>charging symbol while charging</strong>.<p>We've <strong>added the Date/Time Indicator and integrated it with MATE Desktop and it now replaces the MATE clock applet</strong> which corrects the placement of the clock and session indicators.<p>We've finally addressed a long standing issue which has been around since Ubuntu MATE 14.10 ️ Some of the monochrome symbolic icons used in the indicators were also used in applications. The presented a couple of issues:<ul><li>In some cases you couldn't easily see the icons against the window base colour.
<li>The mix of monochrome and full colour icons in applications looked inconsistent.</li></ul><p>This issue is now resolved, <strong>monochrome symbolic icons are only used for indicators and full colour icons are used in the Control Center, Sound Preferences, Bluetooth, OSD, etc</strong>.<h6>MATE Window Applets</h6><p><a href="https://github.com/ubuntu-mate/mate-window-applets">MATE Window Applets</a> have received a number a bug fixes and new features from a community contributor. Window control icons now dynamically load from the currently selected theme, rather than requiring manual user configuration, and <strong>a number of bugs (including significant memory leaks) have also been resolved</strong>.<h5>Notification Center</h5><p>Ubuntu MATE 19.10 includes a <strong>new Indicator that provides a "notification center"</strong> We worked with the <a href="https://github.com/trism/indicator-notifications">upstream developer to add new features to indicator-notifications</a> and integrate it with MATE Notifications Daemon.<p><img alt="Notification Settings" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/eoan/notification-settings.png"><p>We now have a <strong>notification center which also offers a "do not disturb" feature</strong>. When do not disturb is enabled, notifications will not be displayed but will be captured in the notification center for review. It's also <strong>possible to blacklist some notifications</strong>, so they are never stored by the notification center. I've created an icon theme for the notification center so it fits the look and feel of the default Ubuntu MATE theme. <strong>Notification hints are also fixed</strong> so any notifications supplying additional media, such as sounds or icons, now work.<p>Personally, I love ❤️ this feature! No more will I have awkward messages from my Mum flash up while I'm presenting <h5>Evolution replaces Thunderbird</h5><p>The Ubuntu MATE development team discussed the pros and cons of switching the default mail ✉️ client in Ubuntu MATE to <a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evolution">Evolution</a>. Here is a summary of our assessment:<ul><li>Thunderbird does not integrate as well with the desktop.
<ul><li>For example, theme integration, font integration, compatibility with HUD (which is increasingly difficult to support in Thunderbird), notifications with action buttons, locale and spell checking.</li></ul><li>Thunderbird & Lightning occupies 171MB on the ISO image, while Evolution uses 46MB.
<li>Evolution integrates well with MATE Desktop given that both use GTK3.
<li><strong>Evolution includes interoperability with LibreOffice</strong>, for which Ubuntu MATE is already shipping the required components.
<li>Evolution has superior <strong>integration with Google Mail and Exchange</strong>, including calendar, contacts, tasks, and memos.</li></ul><p><strong>Indicator Date/Time also integrates with Evolution</strong>. It is fully functional, all the features of creating new events or opening upcoming events from the indicator work. Clicking on a day in the month displays the events for the selected day etc.<p><img alt="Indicator Date/Time" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/eoan/indicator-datetime.png"><p>For the many people who use web-mail exclusively this change will have no impact, but for those who use desktop mail we feel these productivity improvements are significant.<p>For those of you who love Thunderbird and wish to continue using it: we will continue to offer Thunderbird in the Software Boutique for a one-click install. Likewise, Evolution is now in the Software Boutique so can be installed/removed with one-click too.<h5>GNOME MPV replaces VLC</h5><p>We have <strong>switched from VLC to GNOME MPV</strong>, soon be renamed to <a href="https://celluloid-player.github.io/">Celluloid</a>, for the default media player The reasons for switching to GNOME MPV are similar to swapping out Thunderbird for Evolution; <strong>better desktop integration</strong>.<p><img alt="GNOME MPV" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/eoan/gnome-mpv.png"><p>We've changed GNOME MPV's default UI to better fit in with MATE Desktop by not using client side decorations (CSD). GNOME MPV has an MPRIS implementation that completely integrates with the Sound Indicator. GNOME MPV uses less space on the ISO image compared to VLC and we'll get on to why that is important later.<p>GNOME MPV doesn't offer the extensive array of preferences and options to users that VLC does, and instead ships sane defaults; only surfacing options where they make sense. GNOME MPV is a GTK3 application whereas VLC uses Qt5. <strong>GNOME MPV looks right at home in Ubuntu MATE which uses GTK3 throughout</strong>. While we've done our best to coerce VLC to take hints from the GTK theme, it has never been perfect. Most importantly, <strong>GNOME MPV is an excellent media player with the same broad media format support that VLC offers</strong>. Ubuntu MATE 20.04 will ship Celluloid ️, the new name for GNOME MPV. VLC will remain in the Software Boutique as a single click install for anyone who wants it.<h5>Magnus</h5><p>Most desktop environments are lacking a screen magnifier, which is an essential application for visually impaired computer users and also useful for accurate graphical design or detail work. One of the reasons we ship Compiz in Ubuntu MATE is because it has an excellent screen magnifier and was our solution for people who need magnification <p><img alt="Magnus" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/eoan/magnus.png"><p>I collaborated with my friend <a href="https://twitter.com/sil">Stuart Langridge</a> to create <a href="https://kryogenix.org/code/magnus/">Magnus</a>; <strong>a very simple desktop magnifier</strong>, showing the area around the mouse pointer in a separate window magnified two, three, four, or five times. Magnus is now shipped by default in Ubuntu MATE 19.10, Ubuntu Budgie 19.10 and other distros are already picking up it too <h5>Ubuntu MATE Themes</h5><p>Dozens of theme related bugs have been fixed and the Ubuntu MATE themes have been added to the <code>gtk-common-themes</code> used by snaps, <strong>so snapped applications are themed correctly for Ubuntu MATE users now</strong>. This change is already available all the way back to Ubuntu MATE 16.04.<p>The most noticeable theme issues that have been resolved are <strong>expanders in tree view are now a sensible size</strong> (they were so tiny) so you can easily click them, <strong>window controls are correctly proportioned on CSD windows</strong> and we've add a splash of Chelsea Cucumber to the Ubuntu MATE logo on the menu. Everything the QA team highlighted has been fixed <h5>MATE Tweak and Ubuntu MATE Welcome</h5><p>MATE Tweak now <strong>preserves user preferences when switching between custom layouts</strong> thanks to a community contribution.<p>If you're familiar with MATE Tweak you'll know it can switch panel layouts to somewhat mimic other platforms and distros We have now integrated a graphical layout switcher in Ubuntu MATE Welcome to better promote the feature and make it more accessible. We have actually had this feature since 18.04 but the bugs in MATE Panel I mentioned earlier meant it didn't work. With all the associated panel bugs fixed we now have this:<p><img alt="Desktop Layout Switcher" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/eoan/desktop-layout.png"><h5>NVIDIA drivers</h5><p>If you've been following the news surrounding Ubuntu you'll know that Ubuntu will be shipping the NVIDIA proprietary drivers on the ISO images. Anyone selecting the additional 3rd party hardware drivers during installation without an Internet connection will have the drivers available in offline scenarios.<p>This comes at the cost of increasing the ISO size by ~115MB, but I think this trade-off is worth it. The drivers are not active by default, just present in the apt repository provided on the ISO image to facilitate installation should they be requested. But, if your computer has an NVIDIA GPU, you can now have the drivers installed and operational immediately following install <p>Post-install, Ubuntu MATE users with computers that support hybrid graphics will see the MATE Optimus hybrid graphics applet displaying the NVIDIA logo.<p><img alt="MATE Optimus" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/blog/mate-optimus-19.10.1.png"><p>Now the NVIDIA 435 drivers are in Ubuntu 19.10, I have given MATE Optimus an update. MATE Optimus adds support for NVIDIA On-Demand and will now prompt users to log out when switching the GPU's profile. MATE, XFCE, Budgie, Cinnamon, GNOME, KDE and LXQt are all supported. Wrappers, called <code>offload-glx</code> & <code>offload-vulkan</code> can be used to easily offload games/apps to the PRIME renderer. <strong>I'm also delighted to see Ubuntu Budgie 19.10 are shipping MATE Optimus too!</strong><p>The <strong>NVIDIA drivers are now going to receive updates via the official Ubuntu software repository</strong>. So no need to add a PPA to get updates and more importantly, <strong>the NVIDIA drivers are signed (which is not supported for drivers distributed via PPA) so you can keep Secure Boot enabled.</strong><h5>ISO optimisations</h5><p>In order to squeeze those ~115MB of NVIDIA drivers on the ISO while keeping the ISO at ~2.0GB required some optimisation. Certainly switching to Evolution helped a bit. We've also <strong>dropped Brasero from the default installed applications</strong> because optical media burning is not a widespread use case these days. Brasero is still in Software Boutique should you need it.<p>The main gains came from <strong>analysing the data we have about our user distribution across countries</strong> and changing what language packs we make available on the ISO. We get the data from <a href="https://snapcraft.io/ubuntu-mate-welcome">snap metrics</a> and the <a href="https://ubuntu.com/desktop/statistics">Ubuntu Report</a>.<p>We dropped Chinese, Japanese and Indic language packs from the ISO and added Russian. This dropped the ISO size considerably and the savings gained were just about equivalent to what the NVIDIA drivers require.<p>We are <strong>currently shipping English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Italian and Russian language packs on the iso</strong>, with each language including all regional dialect variations. Anyone in other parts of the world will get the language packs providing they have an Internet connection during the install.<p>Other gains were made by:<ul><li>Changing to format of the weather station database which saved 15MB
<li>Removing Qt4 components. <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/Qt4Removal">Qt4 is being removed from Debian and Ubuntu</a>.
<li>Removing <a href="https://fcitx-im.org/wiki/Fcitx">fcitx</a> from the Live environment.
<li>Removing obsolete software from the ship-live seed.
<li>Removed <code>usb-creator-gtk</code> from the default install. GNOME Disks provides image writing capabilities.
<li>Reducing the size of Ubuntu MATE Welcome and Software Boutique snaps.
<li>Using image optimisation tools on every graphic asset in the default themes, icon themes and wallpaper back-catalog.</li></ul><p><strong>Had we not optimised the ISO image it would have been 2.5GB, but instead it remains just a hair over 2.0GB while now hosting the NVIDIA drivers and 7 language packs</strong>. So, while the Ubuntu MATE ISO image is larger than some, a good chunk of that size is hosting drivers and language packs that will probably never end up getting installed on your computer. The language packs and drivers are there to best service our diverse community of users from across the world ️ running a variety of hardware <h6>GPD MicroPC</h6><p>Alongside the generic image for 64-bit Intel PCs, we're also releasing a bespoke beta image for the <a href="http://gpd.hk/gpdmicropc">GPD MicroPC</a> which includes hardware specific tweaks to get this device working <em>"out of the box"</em> without any faffing about. <a href="https://ubuntu-mate.org/umpc/">See our UMPC page for more details</a>.<h5>Major Applications</h5><p>Accompanying <strong>MATE Desktop 1.22.2</strong> and <strong>Linux 5.3.0</strong> are <strong>Firefox 69.0.1</strong>, <strong>GNOME MPV 0.16</strong>, <strong>LibreOffice 6.3.1.2</strong> and <strong>Evolution 3.34.0</strong>.<p><img alt="Major Applications" src="https://ubuntu-mate.org/gallery/eoan/versions.png"><p>See the <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EoanErmine/ReleaseNotes">Ubuntu 19.10 Release Notes</a> for details of all the changes and improvements in Ubuntu that Ubuntu MATE benefits from.<h4>Download Ubuntu MATE 19.10 Beta</h4><p>Our download page makes it easy to acquire the most suitable build for your hardware.<p><a href="https://ubuntu-mate.org/download/">Download</a><h5>Upgrading from Ubuntu MATE 19.04</h5><ul><li>Open the "Software & Updates" from the Control Center.

This page will describe this in detail, so you can compile your own Xfce desktop; both system wide as well as in your $HOME directory.<h3>Version</h3><p>First you will need to decide on which version of Xfce that you want to compile. Xfce version numbers are constructed like this: 1.2.3 ⇒ major.minor.micro. If the minor version is an even number, this means that it is a stable release. An odd numbered minor version indicate a development, or testing snapshots. The micro number increases with each release. Also, it is recommended to keep the major.minor version the same for the core components (some packages don't follow those numbers) or there will most likely be dependency version problems during compilation.<p>The latest releases available can be found on the <a href="http://xfce.org/download">download</a> page. You can also build from the source repositories if you have enough experience. Additional information about this is provided below.<h3>Source</h3><p>Once you have decided which version that you want to compile, there are a couple of ways to download the source code. You can either choose to build official released packages, or clone the source repositories. Choosing the released packages is the recommended option. The source repositories could possibly be broken and are not generally suitable for production environments. However, they always contains the latest features, bug fixes and translations.<p>If your are not sure what to choose, it is easiest to begin with the latest stable fat-tarball of a collection release.<h4>Released packages</h4><p>Xfce packages have two types of releases. Click the links, below, to open the the download locations.<ul><li><p><a href="http://archive.xfce.org/xfce/">Collection releases of the core modules</a><br>From time to time a new collection release of Xfce is made. A collection release consists of a number of individual tarballs and a fat-tarball that contains all of the individual tarballs.<br>The collection releases always contains the correct versions needed to build the other packages in the release. If you want the latest version of each package, you can start with a collection release and then look for individual bug fix releases, explained in the item below.</p><li><p><a href="http://archive.xfce.org/src/xfce/">Individual releases</a><br>Each package in Xfce is allowed to make development and stable releases at any time, see the <a href="http://xfce.org/about/releasemodel">release model</a> documentation for more information.</p></li></ul><h4>From the code repository</h4><p>For the latest code, you need to make local copies of the <a href="https://git.xfce.org/">GIT repositories</a>. This is the place where developers submit their code. If you decide to use GIT, try to use the same branch for all the packages to avoid dependency version problems.<p>You first need to make clones of each GIT repository, like the command below, where <code>$category</code> is for example <code>xfce</code> and <code>$module</code> <code>xfce4-panel</code>. If you click on a module in the <a href="https://git.xfce.org/xfce">online repository</a> list, the clone uri is shown at the bottom of the page.<pre>git clone https://git.xfce.org/$category/$module</pre><p>After the repository is cloned, you will need to choose which branch you want to compile. By default, the <code>master</code> branch is selected, but there are also branches for stable releases like <code>xfce-4.12</code>. The stable branches contain the latest bug fixes without any major new features, the master branch is the development version for the next release of Xfce. Both should not be used in a production environment.<p>To switch to another branch (<code>git branch -a</code> lists all available branches) run the following command inside the cloned directory to switch to, for example, the <code>xfce-4.12</code> branch:<pre>git checkout --track origin/xfce-4.12</pre><p>After this, you can update your local copy of the repository with git pull and switch to another branch with <code>git checkout $branchname</code>. Read the <a href="http://git-scm.com/documentation">GIT manuals</a> for more information about using GIT.<h3>Dependencies</h3><h4>Build requirements</h4><p>Before you can start compiling, you need a couple of packages that are required to compile Xfce. Use your distributions package manager to install those packages. Additional packages are required too for some modules, but we'll get to that later.<ul><li><p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_toolchain">A working GNU toolchain</a></p><li><p>Gtk+ and Glib headers, in some distributions called the -devel packages<ul><li><p>Xfce 4.14 requires Gtk+ 3.22 and Glib 2.42</p><li><p>Xfce 4.12 requires Gtk+ 2.24 and Glib</p><li><p>pkgconfig</p><li><p>Coffee or tea</p></li></ul></li></ul><p>For history, here are the versions needed for older xfce releases, which are not supported anymore<ul><li><p>Xfce 4.10 requires Gtk+ 2.20 and Glib 2.24</p><li><p>Xfce 4.8 requires Gtk+ 2.14 and Glib 2.20</p><li><p>Xfce 4.6 requires Gtk+ 2.10 and Glib 2.12</p></li></ul><h4>Xfce's dependency chain</h4><p>The Xfce packages need to be built in a specific order. If you don't follow this, compile options might not be available or the configure stage will abort because of missing dependencies.<ul><li><p>xfce4-dev-tools (only required if you build from GIT)</p><li><p>libxfce4util</p><li><p>xfconf</p><li><p>libxfce4ui</p><li><p>garcon, exo</p><li><p>thunar</p><li><p>xfce4-panel, xfce4-settings, xfce4-session, xfdesktop, xfwm4, xfce4-appfinder, tumbler…</p></li></ul><h4>Package specific dependencies</h4><p>Some core packages in Xfce have additional or optional dependencies, all are listed in the table below for the latest stable version. We only show the top-dependency (so xfce4-panel also requires gtk+, but libxfce4ui already depends on that).<p>Note that some of the package-names may vary between distributions.<p>Dependency(-ies)<br>Optional Dependency(-ies)<p>xfce4-dev-tools<br>autoconf, automake, intltool, pkgconfig<p>libxfce4util<br>glib2<p>xfconf<br>libxfce4util, gdbus<p>libxfce4ui<br>libxfce4util, gtk+, xfconf<br>libstartup-notification, libgladeui<p>garcon<br>gio, libxfce4util<p>exo<br>libxfce4util, gtk+, perl-uri, libxfce4ui<p>xfce4-panel<br>libxfce4ui, exo, garcon, libwnck<br>libstartup-notification<p>thunar<br>libxfce4ui, exo, libpng, gtk+, glib<br>libexif, gdbus, libnotify, libstartup-notification, freetype, libjpeg, libxfce4panel, xfconf<p>xfce4-settings<br>libxfce4ui, exo, xfconf, gdbus, libXi, libXrandr<br>libXcursor, libnotify<p>xfce4-session<br>libxfce4ui, perl-xml-parser, libwnck, gdbus<p>xfwm4<br>libxfce4util, libxfce4ui, libxfconf, gdbus, libwnck<br>libstartup-notification<p>xfdesktop<br>libxfce4ui, xfconf, libwnck, exo garcon<br>thunarx, garcon, libnotify<p>xfce4-appfinder<br>libxfce4ui, garcon, gio<p>tumbler<br>dbus-glib, gio, gmodule, gdk-pixbuf<br>freetype-config (fonts), jpeg (jpeg thumbnails from exif), libffmpegthumbnailer (video), gstreamer-1.0 (video), poppler-glib (pdf), libgsf (odf), libopenraw-gnome (various raw images)<h3>Building</h3><h4>Installation location and variables</h4><p>Now it is finally time to start compiling the Xfce desktop. Last remaining thing is to choose an installation location. Possible examples are <code>/usr</code>, <code>/usr/local</code> and <code>/opt/xfce4</code> for a system-wide installation or <code>$HOME/local</code> if you want to install in your home directory (whatever you choose, never put spaces in the name). We will refer to this location as ${PREFIX} in the code examples below!<p>You need to make sure the <code>PKG_CONFIG_PATH</code> variable include the path to the *.pc files installed by the Xfce libraries:<pre>export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PREFIX}/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"</pre><p>You can also set some optimization flags for the compiler. This may speed up Xfce, but can also make debugging impossible on some systems. Even worse, this can also cause gcc to generate broken code, so be careful with this. The line below should be safe for most system.<pre>export CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"</pre><p>If you want a debugging environment, unset the CFLAGS and use <code>--enable-debug</code>, see below for the different debug levels.<pre>export CFLAGS=""</pre><h4>Compiling and installing</h4><p>Next step is compiling the various packages following the dependency chain above. If you have downloaded the tarballs, you will need to unpack them before going on. Inside each package directory you should run the following command:<pre>./configure --prefix=${PREFIX} && make && make install</pre><p>To build from GIT you need to install the xfce4-dev-tools package first, all other packages should be installed with this command:<pre>./autogen.sh --prefix=${PREFIX} && make && make install</pre><p>Specific configure options for each package can be shown with <code>./configure --help</code>. Note that most packages will see a performance benefit if passed the configure option <code>--disable-debug</code>.<p>However, if you want to provide backtraces or test new code, no <code>$CFLAGS</code>, no binary stripping and <code>--enable-debug=full</code> are recommended. Please note that <code>--disable-debug</code> is not available for xfce4-dev-tools.<p>When reusing the <code>./configure</code> script while building from GIT remember to pass the flag <code>--enable-maintainer-mode</code>.<p>If you install the package in a public prefix, for example <code>/usr</code> or <code>/usr/local</code>, you will need to run <code>make install</code> using sudo. This way, you will be asked for the system administrator password and will have write permissions to install in those locations.<pre>sudo make install</pre><h5>Debug Levels</h5><p>Most Xfce modules use the m4 macro <em>XDT_FEATURE_DEBUG</em> to manage the debug compiler levels. If so there are a number of options possible for <code>--enable-debug=</code><dl> <dt><a name=" no"></a>no
<dd>Cast checks and asserts in the Glib macros are disabled, this might be a tad faster, but it can results in segfaults and unexpected crashes.
<dt><a name=" minimum"></a>minimum
<dd>This is the same as <code>--disable-debug</code>. No additional compiler options are added, but checks in Glib are not disabled. This is the recommended level for users and distributions.
<dt><a name=" yes"></a>yes
<dd>A number of <code>$CFLAGS</code> are set to check the code for different errors. During configure you'll see all the options are tested to avoid binaries that do not work.
<dt><a name=" full"></a>full
<dd>Same as the level above, including <code>-Werror</code> so the compilers aborts during compiler errors. The compiler will also generate binaries with debug information suitable for <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/contribute/bugs/start">backtraces</a> and memory checks. This is the recommended level for developers or users who want to report bugs.</dd></dl><h3>Help</h3><p>Hopefully everything went fine after reading this guide. If you still have problems or questions you can ask on the <a href="http://xfce.org/community#mail">Xfce users mailing list</a>, the <a href="http://forum.xfce.org/">forum</a> or ask distribution related questions on their forums and mailing lists.</p>Hugohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10442806299499176047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542860820009090468.post-19135461787263007882019-08-26T17:24:00.001-05:002019-08-26T17:24:56.372-05:00Getting Started with Xfce<h4>Introduction</h4><p>Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for Unix-like operating systems. It aims to be fast and light on system resources, while still being visually appealing and easy to use.<p>Xfce embodies the traditional UNIX philosophy of modularity and re-usability. It consists of a number of components that provide the full functionality one can expect of a modern desktop environment. They are packaged separately and you can pick among the available packages to create the optimal personal working environment.<p>Another priority of Xfce is an adherence to standards, specifically those defined at <a href="https://freedesktop.org/">freedesktop.org</a>.<h4>System Requirements</h4><p>Even though Xfce is very light-weight, there are some <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/system-requirements">distribution specific minimum requirements</a>.<h4>Installation</h4><p>The Xfce project officially only releases <a href="http://archive.xfce.org/xfce/?C=M;O=D">source code</a> for the desktop environment. However, binary packages may have been contributed by other people for your <abbr>OS</abbr> or distribution. Here some links to distribution specific installation instructions:<ul><li><p><a href="http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xfce">Arch</a></p><li><p><a href="http://wiki.debian.org/Xfce">Debian</a></p><li><p><a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Xfce">Fedora</a></p><li><p><a href="http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/x11-wm.html#X11-WM-XFCE">FreeBSD</a></p><li><p><a href="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xfce-config.xml">Gentoo</a></p><li><p><a href="https://wiki.mageia.org/en/XFCE_desktop">Mageia</a></p><li><p><a href="https://www.midnightbsd.org/documentation/desktop.html">MidnightBSD</a> ( or possibly 'pkg_add -r xfce4' ? )</p><li><p>Mythbuntu: sudo apt-get install mythbuntu-desktop</p><li><p><a href="http://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-x.html#chap-x-other-window-managers">NetBSD</a> (pkg_add xfce4)</p><li><p>Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop (<a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=xubuntu-desktop">package description</a>; direct install)</p></li></ul><p>Detailed instructions on compiling Xfce yourself can be found <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/building">here</a>.<h4>Running Xfce</h4><h6>Display Managers</h6><p>Xfce4-session installs a file that should add an option for display managers to run an Xfce session. The Xfce Desktop Environment does not have its own DM, but various options are available like <code>gdm</code>, <code>slim</code>, <code>lxdm</code> and <code>lightdm</code>. Check <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/display_managers">this link</a> for details.<h6>Command line</h6><p>Use <code>startxfce4</code> to start an Xfce session or choose <em>Xfce Session</em> from the login manager, which includes the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/start">session manager</a>, the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/start">panel</a>, the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/start">window manager</a> and the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/start">desktop manager</a>. See <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/advanced">auto login from console</a> for more information.<p>By default, the <em>Xfce session manager</em> manages the startup of applications. It allows you to save your session when you quit Xfce, so that the next time you log in, the same applications will be started for you automatically.<h4>The Desktop Environment</h4><p>The Xfce Desktop Environment is not a single entity that provides all functionality, but rather it tries to adhere to the old UNIX tradition of small tools that do one job and do it well.<p>Default Xfce session, with desktop manager and panel<p><img alt="" src="https://docs.xfce.org/_media/xfce/slider-desktop.jpg"><p>When you start the Xfce session for the first time, several applications are started by the Xfce session manager:<dl> <dt><a name=" Panel"></a>Panel
<dd>In a default session there is a full width panel at the top of the screen and a smaller one at the bottom. The <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/start">Panel</a> application manages all panels on the screen.
<dd>The top panel shows a graphical pager with a miniature view of all workspaces, a task list showing all applications running on the current workspace and a system tray to show status icons that are used for example by some media players or instant messaging applications.
<dd>The bottom panel contains several application launchers and a clock. You can right-click on any panel item to get a menu that allows you to change its properties, add or remove new items or to change the properties of the panel itself.
<dt><a name=" Desktop Manager"></a>Desktop Manager
<dd>The desktop manager provides the desktop background image and two menus when you click on the desktop background. Optionally, it can show icons on the desktop, either for minimized applications or for files in the <code>~/Desktop</code> folder.
<dd>The right mouse button opens a menu that allows you to start applications. Look at the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/start">manual</a> to find out how to change the menu contents.
<dd>The middle mouse button (or Shift + left click) opens a list of all applications that are currently running. You can activate an application by clicking on its menu entry.
<dt><a name=" Window Manager"></a>Window Manager
<dd>The Window Manager is responsible for placing the windows on the screen and provides the window borders and decorations. It allows you to move windows around by dragging the title bar, and provides title bar buttons: for example to close, minimize or maximize a window. Look at the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/start">manual</a> for a detailed explanation of the window manager settings.
<dt><a name=" Settings Manager"></a>Settings Manager
<dd>The settings manager runs in the background and ensures that all Xfce applications update their settings when the user changes something within the application. It is also responsible for reading the configuration files on disk at startup. Look at the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-settings/start">manual</a> for a detailed explanation of the settings manager.</dd></dl><h4>Common Tasks</h4><p>This section will explain how to perform several common tasks to quickly get you started working with Xfce and familiar with its applications.<h6>Running Programs</h6><dl> <dt><a name=" Xfce Panel"></a>Xfce Panel
<dd>The panel can be used to allow quick access to your most frequently used applications by means of launchers, these application launchers are displayed as icons on your panel that launch your specified program. The Applications Menu on the panel also contains all installed programs.
<dt><a name=" Desktop Menu"></a>Desktop Menu
<dd>Another method for starting applications is from the desktop right-click menu. Read the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/start">Desktop Manager manual</a> for more information on how to change the menu contents.
<dt><a name=" Application Finder"></a>Application Finder
<dd>If you know the name of the application you want to launch you can use the Application Finder. To open the dialog, press <strong>Alt</strong>-<strong>F2</strong> or choose the <strong>Run Program...</strong> option from the desktop menu.</dd></dl><h6>Managing Windows and Workspaces</h6><dl> <dt><a name=" Basic window operations"></a>Basic window operations
<dd>You can move a window around the screen by dragging on its title bar. A window can be closed, minimized, maximized, shaded and made sticky (make it show up on all workspaces) by using the title bar buttons.
<dd>Right-clicking on the title bar will open a menu that gives access to all window operations.
<dd>Shading a window, or rolling it up to hide its contents and only show the title bar, can also be accomplished by scrolling the mouse wheel while hovering over the title bar. Mouse wheel up is shade, mouse wheel down is unshade.
<dd>If you don't want maximized windows to cover up the entire screen, you can set workspace margins in the Settings Manager.</dd></dl><dl> <dt><a name=" Application management"></a>Application management
<dd>To see what applications are currently running, you can look at the task list on the panel. Clicking on an application in the task list will focus it, and clicking it again will hide it.
<dd>When you click with the middle mouse button on the desktop background a list of windows is shown, ordered by workspace. You can activate the application or change workspaces by choosing the appropriate menu entry.</dd></dl><dl> <dt><a name=" Workspaces"></a>Workspaces
<dd>You can change workspaces by clicking on them in the graphical pager on the panel. Pressing <strong>Ctrl</strong>-<strong>Alt</strong>-<strong>LeftArrow</strong> or <strong>Ctrl</strong>-<strong>Alt</strong>-<strong>RightArrow</strong>will cycle through the workspaces. Scrolling the mouse wheel while hovering over the pager or the desktop background has the same effect.
<dd>To add or remove workspaces, you can use the middle-click desktop menu or the settings dialog (see below).</dd></dl><h6>Using the Settings Manager</h6><p>The Settings Manager provides access to the global preferences of many aspects of the Xfce Desktop Environment. You can run it by pressing its launcher on the panel, from the desktop mouse menu or by running <code>xfce4-settings-manager</code>.<p>Refer to the individual manuals of the Xfce components for more information on settings specifically for that application. Don't be afraid to explore all the settings to find out what options are available that allow you to create the best possible working environment.<h4>Further Reading</h4><p>This guide provides only a general overview of the Xfce Desktop Environment. More information is available in the <a href="https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/start">manuals</a> of the individual components of Xfce.Hugohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10442806299499176047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542860820009090468.post-75526817134794706072019-06-10T08:39:00.001-05:002019-06-10T08:47:53.614-05:00Ubuntu 19.10 Codename Revealed: Eoan Ermine.Ubuntu 19.10 Codename Revealed: Eoan Ermine.<p>
Ubuntu releases are always named alphabetically, so a genius wasn’t required to know that the Ubuntu 19.10 codename would use an alliterative adjective/animal combo based on the letter “E”.</p>
<p>“Launchpad reveals the Ubuntu 19.10 codename as ‘Eoan Ermine'”</p>
<p>Launchpad, the online code hub where Ubuntu development takes place, revealed the first half of the codename as Ubuntu 19.10 as “Eoan”.</p>
<p>— And no, that’s not a typo!</p>
<p>Collins Dictionary states that the word Eoan is an adjective that means “of, or relating to, the dawn”.</p><p><img width="640" height="360" src="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/eoan-ermine-ubuntu-1910.jpg"></p>
<p>Other online dictionaries suggest the word is also used to describe something ‘of the east’.</p>
<p>I can’t lie: “Eoan” is not a word I’d ever heard of before today. I am told it pops up in poetry, and is a valid Scrabble answer.</p>
<p>But it’s still only half of the codename.</p><p>Mark Shuttleworth typically reveals the full codename in a blog post. He hasn’t this time, leaving it up to eagle-eyed developers to spot the 19.10 codename.</p>
<p>The landing page for Ubuntu 19.10 daily builds reveals the second half of the Ubuntu 19.10 codename, the animal mascot as “Ermine”.</p>
<p>“This is the second Ubuntu release to use the letter ‘E’ after ‘Edgy Eft'”</p>
<p>This is the second Ubuntu release to use the letter “E”. The other being Ubuntu 6.10 “Edgy Eft” released back in 2006.</p>
<p>So what’s an “Ermine” when it’s at home?</p>
<p>Well, it’s the formal name for a Stoat, often described as a short-tailed weasel. Ermine can be used to describe a stoat wearing its pure white winter coat (e.g. “Look at that pretty ermine!”), or simply its fur (i.e. “the evil man wore ermine”).</p>
<p>Ermine fur is used to line the robes of peers who sit in the British House of Lords — as if need any further indication symbolism of how antiquated and outdated they are!</p>Hugohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10442806299499176047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542860820009090468.post-49957447463987944632019-04-19T13:46:00.001-05:002019-04-19T13:46:08.325-05:00The team behind Ubuntu Kylin has published a new version of their distribution which introduces a new visual style<p><img src="https://ywnz.com/uploads/allimg/18/1-1Q230202Q1448.JPG"></p><p>The team behind <a href="https://distrowatch.com/ubuntukylin">Ubuntu Kylin</a> has published a new version of their distribution which introduces a new visual style.

HUGE thanks to <a href="https://jonathancarter.org/">Jonathan Carter</a> and <a href="https://mitya57.me/">Dmitry Shachnev</a> for helping this land.<p><strong>Note:</strong> In case of full-disk encryption, unlike the other flavors, Calamares does not create a separate, unencrypted <em>/boot</em>partition. Therefore, LUKS 1 is the default, so that GRUB 2 can decrypt the partition. This is because GRUB 2 <a href="https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55093">does not have support for LUKS 2</a> and Ubuntu switched to it by default in this release.<p>Some notable upstream features and fixes include:<ul><li>Easier customization of Calamares configurations using XDG configuration variables.
<li>The default fullscreen mode can now be set.
<li>RAID devices are now supported in the partitioner.
<li>The Austrian keymap is now properly handled.</li></ul><p>For a full description of the new features and fixes, see the upstream announcements for <a href="https://calamares.io/calamares-3.2.3-is-out/">3.2.3</a> and <a href="https://calamares.io/calamares-3.2.4-is-out/">3.2.4</a>.<p>Lastly, due to popular demand, the minimum RAM requirement has been lowered to 0.5 GB of RAM. (The RAM consumption is around 300-400 MB after startup).<h4>Desktop Environment</h4><p>Lubuntu 19.04 ships with the latest release of the LXQt desktop environment, <a href="https://lxqt.org/release/2019/02/26/lxqt-0141/">0.14.1</a>. Some notable features and fixes in this release include:<ul><li>File manager/desktop icons:
<ul><li>Trash, Home, Computer, and Network icons have been added to the desktop for easy accessibility.
<li>Hidden icons are now shadowed.
<li>Split view has been implemented.
<li>Allow full names to be shown instead of only display names.
<li>Fixed view icons with HiDPI scaling.
<li>Theme icons are preferred for view actions.</li></ul><li>Image viewer:
<ul><li>An image’s EXIF data can now be rendered.
<li>A confirmation dialog is now present when using “Save as” without a file extension.
<li>Added ImgBB as an upload provider.
<li>Added the ability to annotate images.
<li>Added a copy button to the upload dialog.</li></ul><li>Terminal:
<ul><li>Margins have been added.
<li>History-based tab switching has been implemented.</li></ul><li>GTK Appearance settings have now been upstreamed.

The new release is supported for nine months and ships with a new audio plugin host called Carla. "Officially released on April 15, 2019, Carla 2.0.0 has been added to Ubuntu Studio to replace the outdated jack-rack and add more functionality. Carla is an audio plugin host that can handle many different types of plugins, from Ladspa to DSSI to LV2 to VST. In fact, if you install the WINE bridge (not installed by default), Carla can host Windows-compiled VST plugins. Carla can also act as a plugin itself, allowing your DAW to use any audio plugin. Carla also includes a patchbay, which is functionally similar to that of Patchage. Ubuntu Studio Controls has been upgraded to 1.7 with many bugfixes, and is now the preferred method for starting Jack. As such, we ask that you discontinue use of QJackCtl for starting Jack. QJackCtl remains a good way to monitor Jack’s performance and logs."

"Ubuntu MATE 19.04 is shipping with MATE Desktop 1.20. Albeit, the latest maintenance release of MATE Desktop 1.20 with some of the bug fixes and new features from MATE Desktop 1.22 included. In fact, the version of MATE Desktop being shipped in 19.04 is derived from the same MATE packages that will feature in the upcoming Debian 10 (Buster) release. You may be wondering why we're not shipping MATE Desktop 1.22? The answer: stability. MATE Desktop 1.22 introduces some underlying API changes in core components and while all first party MATE Desktop applications are compatible with the changes and completely stable, some third party applications are not. Some third party applications are big crashers now and we've not been able to fix them in time. So, we are playing it safe and sticking with MATE Desktop 1.20 and working with upstreams so we can land MATE Desktop 1.22 early in the Ubuntu MATE 19.10 development cycle."

It combines intuitive mechanics with in-your-face action to elevate your heart rate. Xonotic is and will always be free-to-play.<br />
<br />
Xonotic has 9 core weapons and 16 full weapons in its armoury. Each has a primary fire and a UT-like secondary fire.<br />
<br />
They are each useful in particular situations, so weapon choice is critical. Frag away!<br />

Through the support of our diverse community Xonotic has a huge variety of game modes for you to play. There are the normal game modes you'd expect from an arena shooter like Deathmatch (FFA), Capture The Flag, and Clan Arena, plus more whacky modes like Nexball and Freeze Tag. Multiplayer Race is also supported!<br />
<br />
Xonotic ships ready to play with 25 official maps, with dozens of community-made ones just a click away. Classic Nexuiz maps are also supported, including those converted from Quake 3! Those interested in making maps of their own can use our map editor, which also ships with the game.<br />
<br />
Track your progress with XonStat, the integrated player statistics application. See vital stats like your kill:death ratio, weapon damage and accuracy, and recent games. Tracking is completely opt-in, and no login is required!<br />
<br />
Tailor the information on your screen to what you’re used to with our easy to use HUD editor. Stick with the defaults, add all the whiz-bang widgets, or go minimalist – it is completely up to you!<br />
<br />
Xonotic is easy to learn but hard to master! We strive to provide thrilling action for the casual player but also e-sport opportunities for those interested in friendly competition. Features such as simple items, fully customizable configs and servers, a functioning anticheat system, spectator mode, and the opportunity to watch and record games make Xonotic appealing to competitive players.<br />

Since there is not much known about Ubuntu 19.04 features yet, let’s talk about this cheesy codename.<br />
<br />
These letters are in the alphabetical order. So after <strong>Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver</strong>, you had Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic Cuttlefish.<br />
<br />
The first word is usually an adjective and the second word is a (usually endangered) species.<br />

<br />
<h4>Features.</h4><br />
The pattern in the second word was broken with the<br />
release of Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn. Instead of an endangered species, it was a fictional animal. Yes, Unicrons are fictional. Stop believing in that rainbow farting animal.<br />
<blockquote>Read also: <a href="http://turboagram.com/609F">Habemus nominem: Ubuntu 18.10 will be called Cosmic Cuttlefish</a>.</blockquote>With Ubuntu 19.04, the pattern has been broken again but this time, it’s the first word of the codename.<br />
<br />
The first word used to be an adjective however ‘disco’ is a noun and a verb but not an adjective. I wonder how come Ubuntu team ran out of ideas for an adjective starting with letter D. I guess they just wanted to party.<br />
<br />
<h4>Dingo is a type of dog native to Australia.</h4><br />
<b>Dingo </b>is a type of dog native to Australia. It’s not an endangered species but at least it’s a real animal. If Ubuntu were going for a fancy name with fictional animals, Disco Dragon would have been a lot more fun in its own way. And yes, Dragons are not real as well.<br />
<br />
<h4>Australian Population and Hybrids.</h4><br />
Australia is home to so many of these animals that they are generally considered pests. A famous “dingo fence” has been erected to protect grazing lands for the continent's herds of sheep. It is likely that more dingoes live in Australia today than when Europeans first arrived.<br />
<br />
Though dingoes are numerous, their pure genetic strain is gradually being compromised. They can and do interbreed with domestic dogs to produce hybrid animals. Studies suggest that more than a third of southeastern Australia's dingoes are hybrids.<br />

ratification by the States.<p>The <strong>GDPR</strong> is a legislative instrument that serves to <strong>standardize privacy legislation at the European level</strong> and replaces

Any fine for offenders for <b>not complying with the GDPR</b> will not be immediate. It will start with <strong>a warning, then with a reprimand, then with a suspension of data processing</strong> , and in case of a <strong>continuing violation</strong> of the rule, only then <strong>fines could be received</strong> .<p>The first obligation is to have a <strong>Privacy Policy</strong> or a document that illustrates <strong>how private data is processed.</strong> This information should be updated and contain:<ol><li><p>the purpose of data processing</p><li><p>the mode of this treatment</p><li><p>the subjects of third parties that store, control and use this data through applications or technologies installed on sites such as Google, Facebook and other players in the sector</p><li><p>browser rights</p><li><p>The details of the data controller or the site administrator.</p></li></ol><p>There must be a <strong>legal basis</strong> for the processing of personal data and the presence of <strong>the user's consent</strong> for one or more purposes of this data processing.<h3>PRIVACY OF GOOGLE AND FACEBOOK</h3><p><strong>Google</strong> is the largest Internet player with <strong>Facebook</strong> and together they are the largest repositories of data processing of the users who visit the different sites. <strong>Google</strong> has published a very extensive and detailed guide on its <strong><a href="https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?anno=0&depth=1&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=auto&sp=nmt4&tl=en&u=https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c%3Fanno%3D0%26depth%3D1%26rurl%3Dtranslate.google.com%26sl%3Dauto%26sp%3Dnmt4%26tl%3Des%26u%3Dhttps://policies.google.com/privacy%253Fhl%253Dit%26xid%3D17259,15700022,15700124,15700149,15700168,15700173,15700186,15700189,15700191,15700201,15700205%26usg%3DALkJrhhIbC45NufXPZyfVDH0OmIm624etw&xid=17259,1500004,15700002,15700022,15700124,15700149,15700168,15700173,15700186,15700189,15700190,15700201,15700205&usg=ALkJrhjWxNGnuLZ_2jACJO3ITPxHXd2raQ">Privacy Policy</a></strong> and one of its own <strong></strong><a href="https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?anno=0&depth=1&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=auto&sp=nmt4&tl=en&u=https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c%3Fanno%3D0%26depth%3D1%26rurl%3Dtranslate.google.com%26sl%3Dauto%26sp%3Dnmt4%26tl%3Des%26u%3Dhttps://policies.google.com/privacy/update%253Fhl%253Dit%26xid%3D17259,15700022,15700124,15700149,15700168,15700173,15700186,15700189,15700191,15700201,15700205%26usg%3DALkJrhhP-gFouuPNc87pkYRuyfNwtWDgDw&xid=17259,1500004,15700002,15700022,15700124,15700149,15700168,15700173,15700186,15700189,15700190,15700201,15700205&usg=ALkJrhjwT_n5GvrvRuhCK3s2UlqoZ9sYhw"><strong>updated version</strong></a> according to the <strong>GDPR</strong> .

</p><p>
It’s a new LTS (Long Term Support) release. So you get 5 years of support for both the desktop and server version.
Named “Bionic Beaver”. </p><p>The founder of Canonical, Mark Shuttleworth, explained the meaning behind the name. </p><p>
The mascot is a Beaver because it’s energetic, industrious, and an awesome engineer – which perfectly describes a typical Ubuntu user, and the new Ubuntu release itself. </p><p>The “Bionic” adjective is due to the increased number of robots that run on the Ubuntu Core.
</p><h3>Features</h3><p>Enjoy the simplicity of Ubuntu’s intuitive interface. Fast, secure and with thousands of apps to choose from — for everything you want to do, Ubuntu has what you need.<p><a href="https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop">Download Ubuntu</a><p><img alt="" src="https://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/01600134-XPS-touch-notebook.png?w=500"><h4>A whole world of apps</h4><p>Ubuntu offers thousands of apps available for download. Most are available for free and can be installed with just a few clicks.<p><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
