It’s been an amazing journey, knowing that my blog helps people around the world and the ability to reach out to so many people is a dream that came true to me!
Blogging has helped me reach places I never dreamed to be and interact with people I never knew existed, you have to blog!
If I had one advice to give that would be open a blog and start sharing your experiences and knowledge with the world!

Ubuntu 16.04 Beta 1 download

2016-02-26 / / 0 Comments
Today Ubuntu 16.04 Beta 1 is ready for download on all flavors of Ubuntu, that includes Lubuntu, Ubuntu Gnome, and Xubuntu. 

 

This is the first major milestone for many flavors as Alpha wasn’t available to many of them, while this version is far from complete, it gives you a clear idea on how will Ubuntu 16.04 will look and behave.

Now every flavor has it’s changes and improvements, but since I’m with Ubuntu Gnome now, here is a list of update and known bugs (Source):

Software Updates

  • GNOME Shell 3.18
  • Most of GNOME 3.18
  • GNOME Software has replaced Ubuntu Software Center
  • GNOME Calendar and GNOME Logs are installed by default
  • GNOME Builder (IDE) is now available in the archives
  • gnome-control-center sharing panel has been fixed
  • Experimental wayland session is now available. Install gnome-session-wayland and then select “GNOME on wayland” from login screen (Only works with OSS GPU drivers).

Known Problems

  • The prompt asking for media removal is not shown at the end of the installation (966480)
  • Shutdown/Restart of live session guest does not work in Virtualbox, and VMWare (1447038)
  • No auto login in Ubuntu GNOME Xenial (1547297)
  • Ubuntu installer says: The creation of swap space in partition failed (990744)
  • Ubuntu GNOME Xenial live image boots to tty1 (1548864)
  • It only shows installed apps, not available ones (1548933)

    The beta version isn’t ready for everyday use, but if you can and have a decent Internet connection, downloaded and give it a try even on a VM.
    I seriously can’t wait for Ubuntu 16.04. It’s going to be awesome!!

    Are you excited as I am? Let me know what you think in the comments section below?

Ubuntu Tablet! Also a PC!

2016-02-05 / / 0 Comments
Ubuntu has been teasing a marketing campaign under the logo Reinvent, people have been speculating for days on what could it mean? Now we know there is a Tablet in the works, and it’s out very soon!

The tablet is made by Spanish carrier BQ much like Ubuntu Phone, BQ Aquaris M10 will be available all over Europe directly from the manufacturer, unlike Ubuntu phone which was sold in flash sales..

The specifications of the Tablet are the following

  • 10.1 inch display.
  • 16GB internal memory plus MicroSD slot
  • Full HD video camera
  • 2GB RAM
  • 8 megapixel rear camera with autofocus and 5 megapixel front camera
  • Frontal speakers
  • Micro HDMI slot
  • Dimensions: 246 x 171 x 8.2mm
  • Lightweight at only 470g

Convergence

One of the killer features of this Tablet is convergence, the ability to turn it into a PC once connected to a wireless mouse and Keyboard, with the ability to work on the tablet at the same time for true multi-tasking! 
This also means that the apps developed for the tablet are the same as the desktop.

 Ubuntu tablet convergence

Ubuntu Scops

 It’s a new concept that allows you to get services without downloading apps on your tablet.

Final word

The Ubuntu tablet could be a true game changer, being the first ever to run the open source OS, with nice specifications and convergence, could it break into the mainstream market and attract attention outside the open source world? Only time will tell!
