Update on Precise + Ubuntu Norge
Precise Report
As promised, hereby is my report on Precise Pangoline, due in April 2012 as Ubuntu LTS 12.04.
- Working multi-screen setup (had problems with the right screen on 11.10)
- System is stable (11.10 was really unbearable)
- Fast (It feels a lot faster from cold start to desktop. Improvement also on Suspend/Hybernation)
- Sometimes things break (skype & spotify mainly) but after a dist-upgrade (yes, using the terminal for updates as the software center seems REALLY broken) it is all good again!
Ubuntu Norge Update
And, I am stepping down as Contact Member for the Nowegian LoCo team. So please welcome Jo-Erlend Schinstad as the new contact for the team. For me this means two things:
- Peace of mind
- Being able to contribute to Ubuntu Norge activities without the implicit overhead of being the main responsible person
Hopefully this will translate in more team activity. I am already planning a great release party for Precise in Oslo.
And cannot leave without my promised screenshot:
Thank you. I’m very happy that you’ll keep up the good work in fixing parties. You’re very much better at it than I would ever be. I’ll do my best to facilitate efficient communication up and down. I just hope there’ll be a lot of interesting things to communicate!
I think this’ll be an exciting year for us.
Thanks for your kind words. I DO what I can.
Indeed 2012 will be a great year for us!
[...] Chatting with friends and old colleagues I thought I would tell you more about my experience with precise. You can read more on that here and the first update here. [...]
