Canonical on Tuesday released its first publicly available developer edition of Ubuntu for mobile internet devices.
Canonical, the Linux distribution maker best known for the Ubuntu Linux desktop operating system, has taken the wraps off a new release of the server edition of its product.
From Monday, office supplies retailer Officeworks will start selling a limited range of pre-configured Dell PCs and laptops at 104 locations across the country.
Ubuntu can now access Parallels Workstation for Linux, which allows users to run Windows applications, via the operating system's built-in update tool.
Heading in a different direction from its main rivals, Ubuntu Linux will use KVM as its primary virtualisation software.
Who predicted Linux servers would outnumber Windows servers by 2006? Who said one in five enterprise desktops would be Linux-based by 2008? We look back at the bad (and good) predictions made about Linux over the past decade.
Linux has come a long way from the early, oft-crashing days. GNOME is now one of the primary desktops for the Linux operating system; not only is it highly customisable, but it is amazingly stable. We examine why Linux -- running GNOME -- is a viable desktop alternative.
Out of the box, a Linux desktop is far more secure than most others.
Even Linux devotees may need to use Internet Explorer on occasion for tasks such as testing Web design or JavaScript. We show you how to get Microsoft's browser running on Linux.
The idea of getting a robust, scalable operating system for free hasn't clicked with many enterprises -- until now.
Ubuntu is very user-friendly but not right for everyone. Oddly, both casual and advanced users will find this operating system wonderful, while day-to-day users may rail against Ubuntu's incompatibility with certain popular software applications.
Ubuntu is a well integrated, practical and absolutely free Linux distribution. There may be worries about support, but the Canonical organisation is building a good reputation and the head of steam in the wider Ubuntu community should provide decent local support from third parties, too.
