<strong style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">Ubuntu Touch comes with its own browser, developed by Canonical, but Ubuntu 14.04 LTS users can also employ it.</strong><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">The browser from Ubuntu Touch has been included by default in Ubuntu 14.04, at least so far. It's unsure whether it's going to remain installed by the end of the development cycle or if it's going to get removed.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">Aptly named Browser, it features a very simple experience for users, with little to no options. You get a short history log, which is combined with the Bookmarks, and that's about it.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">It will be interesting to see what the exact use of this app is in the context of a desktop distribution, but the software is stable and complete. It's also interesting to play around with.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">The browser is built on Webkit and identifies as Ubuntu if you check the user Agent. Go ahead and have fun!</span><br />

<strong style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">Canonical has upgraded a lot of aspects of Ubuntu 14.04, and the developers are pushing updates every day. The Software Updater has also received a sizable upgrade, making it a lot more user-friendly than ever before.</strong><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">More and more new users are installing Ubuntu for the first time and not everyone is ready to upgrade the system from a terminal or from a simple interface that only shows what packages will be downloaded and installed.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">The new Software Updater is now a lot more user-friendly and shows more details about what you are actually installing. This is a great improvement over the previous version present in Ubuntu 13.10, but it would be nice if more features were available, like a changelog for the new version of an app.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is still under development and it's likely that the Software Updater will continue to get better.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;" /><strong style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;">Update:</strong><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify;"> The changelog is shown under Technical Info for each package.</span></div>

<h3 style="color: red; text-align: left;">
<strong>Window of opportunity</strong></h3>
Ubuntu is a widely popular open source Linux distribution with eight
years of maturity under its belt, and more than 20 million users. Of the
roughly 5% of desktop OSs accounted for by Linux, at least one survey
suggests that about half are Ubuntu. (Windows, meanwhile, accounts for
about 84%.)<br />
The timing of this latest Ubuntu release couldn't be better for
Windows users faced with the paradigm-busting Windows 8 and the big
decision of whether to take the plunge.<br />
Initial uptake of Windows 8 has been unenthusiastic, according to
some reports, and a full 80% of businesses will never adopt it, Gartner
predicted. As a result, Microsoft's big gamble may be desktop Linux's
big opportunity.<br />
So, now that Canonical has thrown down the gauntlet, let's take a
closer look at Ubuntu 12.10 to see how it compares with Windows 8 from a
business user's perspective.<br />

<strong>1. Unity vs. Modern UI</strong></h3>
Both Microsoft and Canonical have received considerable flak for the
default user interfaces in their respective OSs. In Microsoft's case, of
course, it's the Modern UI, formerly known as Metro; in Canonical's
case, it's Unity. Both are designed with touchscreens in mind, and
borrow heavily from the mobile world.<br />
By removing the Start button and overhauling the way users interact
with the operating system, Windows 8's Modern interface poses a
considerable challenge for users, who face a significant learning curve.<br />
Unity, on the other hand, became a default part of Ubuntu back in
April 2011 with Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal. It has definitely undergone
growing pains, but more than a year has passed, and Canonical has
revised the interface accordingly. Although it still has numerous
critics, most people concede that it has matured and improved. Some
observers, in fact, have even suggested that it may feel more familiar
to many longtime Windows users than does Windows 8.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>2. Customization</strong></h3>
Linux has long been known for its virtually limitless
customisability, but given the current controversy surrounding desktop
interfaces, that feature has become more salient than ever.<br />
This is a point on which Windows 8 and Ubuntu differ considerably.
Yes, Windows 8 does allow users to customise some aspects of their
environment, such as by specifying the size of Live Tile icons, moving
commonly used tiles to the left side of the screen, or grouping tiles by
program type.<br />
Most of the changes you can make in Windows 8, however, are largely
cosmetic, and they don't include a built-in way to set the OS to boot to
the traditional Windows desktop. A growing assortment of third-party
utilities such as Pokki can restore that capability, but otherwise
you're stuck with Modern UI. Windows 8 offers what you might call a
"tightly coupled" interfacein other words, one that you can't change
substantially.<br />
Ubuntu's Unity, in contrast, is more of a loosely coupled UI. First
and foremost, you can easily replace it with any one of several free
alternatives, including KDE, Xfce, LXDE, GNOME 3 Shell, Cinnamon, and
MATE.<br />
Also available for Unity are third-party customisation tools,
including the increasingly popular Ubuntu Tweak, while a raft of look
sites are available for myriad Linux interfaces with a variety of themes
to change the desktop's appearance.<br />
The rule of thumb with Linux in general and Ubuntu in particular is,
if you don't like it, swap in something else. Also worth mentioning is
the fact that Ubuntu supports multiple workspaces, essentially letting
you run up to four different desktops; Windows 8 Pro does not.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>3. Apps</strong></h3>
Whereas Windows 8 Pro comes bundled with Microsoft's Internet
Explorer 10 browser, Ubuntu comes with a wide assortment of open source
software packages such as Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice, and more,
offering both individual and business users a pretty full suite of
functionality.<br />
Beyond those bundled programs, both Ubuntu and Windows 8 offer app stores to help users find the additional software they need.<br />
Dating back to 2009, the Ubuntu Software Center now houses more than
40,000 apps, ranging from games to productivity tools to educational
resources. In addition, by using Wine or CodeWeaver's CrossOver, you can
run Windows programs on top of Linux.<br />
The Windows Store just launched with Windows 8, and at the time of
its debut it included just over 9,000 apps. Microsoft execs have said
that they hope to provide 100,000 apps in the Windows Store within 90
days of the Windows launch.<br />
Operating system binaries and drivers, however, will not come from
the Windows Store. Rather, it will have both Windows RT (ARM) apps and
Windows desktop (legacy) apps. Entries for legacy desktop apps in the
Windows Store will take users to separate sites where they can purchase
or download the apps. Ubuntu's repository, on the other hand, centrally
stores all operating system and app binaries and drivers.<br />
As a result, aside from numbers, a key difference between the two app stores involves security. Ubuntu provides a GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG)
keyring-protected repository system wherein each application and driver
has a unique keyring identity to verify its authenticity and integrity
as having come only from the Ubuntu repo system. The keyring method of
protection has been highly effective at ensuring that no rogue
applications find their way into the repoor onto users' PCs.<br />
Historically, Microsoft Windows has lacked such a keyring-protected
repository. Although Microsoft does support its OS with monthly Windows
Updates, no comparable third-party vendor support for updates
exists. Because of this situation, users have had to venture online to
obtain their own third-party-supported updates manually at separate
websites. The Windows Store was developed to mitigate that risk and is
specifically designed to curate apps, screen apps, and provide the
capability to purchase apps. Time will tell how well it succeeds.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>4. Hardware compatibility</strong></h3>
To run Windows 8 on your PC, you'll need a processor that's 1GHz or
faster with support for PAE, NX, and SSE2. You'll also need a minimum of
1GB RAM for the 32-bit version or 2GB for the 64-bit version, along
with 16GB (32-bit) or 20GB (64-bit) of space on your hard drive. For
graphics processing, you'll need a Microsoft DirectX 9-compatible
graphics device with a WDDM driver, Microsoft says.<br />
Of course, that's the minimum. If you want to take advantage of
Windows 8's touch features, obviously you'll need a multitouch device.
To make the most of the software, you'll want considerably more than
that.<br />
Ubuntu's requirements, however, are much more modest: Canonical
recommends 512MB of RAM, plus 5GB on the hard drive. You'll also find
versions such as Lubuntu and Xubuntu for lower-spec machines. In short,
if hardware is a constraining factor for you, Ubuntu is most likely the
better choice.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>5. Cloud integration</strong></h3>
Starting with the launch of Ubuntu One in 2009, the cloud has played a
key role in Ubuntu Linux for some time, enabling users to store files
online and sync them among computers and mobile devices, as well as to
stream audio and music from the cloud to mobile devices.<br />
Ubuntu One works on Windows, OS X, iOS, and Android, as well as on
Ubuntu. Users of Ubuntu Linux get 5GB of Ubuntu One storage for free;
20GB costs $30 per year.<br />
Beginning with Ubuntu 12.10, the OS also integrates web apps and
online searches directly into the Unity desktop for a more seamless
experience.<br />
With Windows 8, the cloud is coming to the forefront of Microsoft's
platform as well. For storage, Microsoft's SkyDrive offers users 7GB of
space for free. If you need more than that, you can have an extra 20GB
for $10, 50GB for $25, or 100GB for $50 annually.<br />
Storage isn't the only benefit of the cloud, however. Beginning with
this new release, the new Microsoft Account sign-in (formerly Live ID)
lets you use a single username and password to establish common
preferences among all the Windows-based hardware and services with which
you work. The idea is to employ the cloud to connect your PCs, tablets,
and smartphones through a common, user-specific experience.<br />
Ubuntu doesn't fully compete with Windows in this regard, since it
doesn't offer counterparts to Windows Phone 8 or Windows 8 RT that are
tailored specifically to non-PC devices. However, Ubuntu for Android
is in the works.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>6. Security</strong></h3>
Although Windows RT apps run within a sandboxed environment for
greater security, Windows 8 Pro desktop legacy apps have no equivalent.
Instead, third-party software developers are left to their own devices
to add security measures to their apps.<br />
Windows 8 and Ubuntu Linux provide their own firewalls, however, as well as the option for full disk encryption.<br />
Despite the fact that Windows 8 Pro offers some security improvements
over Windows 7, the new OS still carries forward with the WinNT legacy
kernel, which is at least partially responsible for the litany of
security issues Windows has suffered over the years.<br />
To mitigate some of those issues, Microsoft created in conjunction
with partnering OEMs Secure Boot, an extension to UEFI. Windows 8 now
provides Secure Boot support on OEM systems, while Ubuntu 12.10 offers a
raft of advanced security features such as support for installation
with Secure Boot systems.<br />
Additionally, Ubuntu Linux comes with Linux Security Modules (LSM)
installed by default. Other security-enhancing measures include chroot,
seccomp, seccomp-bpf, and the newest additionLinuX Containers (LXC)for
third-party developers and users alike.<br />
Just as an aside, it's interesting to note that, each year at
Pwn2Own, hackers get a chance to hack Windows and Apple Mac systems, but
Linux is not included in the contest. No exploit can escalate against
(and gain root privilege on) Ubuntu Linux running AppArmor-sandboxed
Firefox.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>7. Administrative tools</strong></h3>
For administrative controls, Windows provides Active Directory, using dedicated Active Directory servers.<br />
Canonical supports Active Directory as well, and Ubuntu Linux clients
can join to an Active Directory Domain using third-party software such
as Likewise Open or Centrify.<br />
In addition, Canonical provides Landscape, an enterprise
administrative tool of its own that can perform most Windows Active
Directory tasks. Landscape presents an easy-to-use, browser-based
control panel through which you can manage desktops, servers, and cloud
instances.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>8. VPN support</strong></h3>
Users who require virtual private network support will find it in both Windows 8 and Ubuntu 12.10.<br />
In Ubuntu repositories, the provided utility is OpenVPN, which uses a
custom security protocol based on SSL/TLS for key exchange. Both
operating systems offer support for varied protocols, however, depending
on site-specific and inter-site needs.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>9. User support</strong></h3>
Microsoft offers support for Windows 8 Pro users through its TechNet
subscription service, which is priced starting at $149 per year.<br />
Canonical offers Ubuntu Advantage service-level agreements starting
at about $80 per year at the standard desktop level, including legal
coverage and use of the Landscape administrative tool.<br />
<h3 style="color: red;">
<strong>10. Price</strong></h3>
Last but certainly not least, Ubuntu Linux is free, while Windows 8
Pro will reportedly cost $199 after the current introductory upgrade
offer of $39 to $69 expires.<br />
So which operating system is better for small-business users? The
answer, of course, is in the eye of the beholder. If one thing is clear,
however, it's that any lead Windows may have once had over competing
operating systems is shrinking every year. Depending on your needs,
Ubuntu Linux 12.10 could provide a compelling alternative. If nothing
else, it's almost certainly worth your while to <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/tour/en/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">try it online</a>.</div>

Ubuntu phones and tablets may not be a reality yet, but Canonical
founder Mark Shuttleworth says Ubuntu is "close" to running on
everything from smartphones to supercomputers.<br />
"The really interesting opportunity is to unify all of these different kinds of computing," Shuttleworth said in a Q&A with Slashdot readers published today.
"Let's make one OS that runs on the phone AND on your supercomputer.
We're close to that now—we know Ubuntu makes a great cloud OS and a
great server OS and a great desktop. So I think the next frontier is to
create a seamless experience from the embedded world to the cloud. And
yes, that's very much what we are focused on at Canonical."<br />
The Linux kernel, of course, already runs on smartphones, tablets,
desktops, servers, and supercomputers. While Ubuntu is the most widely
used Linux desktop, it has done nothing to stop the dominance of Windows
and it only runs on mobile devices in limited ways. There is <a href="http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/02/ubuntu-for-android-canonical-brings-ubuntu-desktop-to-docked-smartphones/">Ubuntu for Android</a>, which aims to turn Android phones into Ubuntu desktops when <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android">connected</a> to a monitor, mouse, and keyboard. And Ubuntu can be installed on the Nexus 7 tablet in an <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7">experimental fashion</a>.<br />
Shuttleworth's stated timing for Ubuntu on phones and tablets is
still so far in the future that it's hard to have much confidence in its
prospects. "We've said clearly that the phone and tablet are key
stories we need to tell by 14.04 LTS," Shuttleworth said. Ubuntu 14.04
comes out in April 2014.<br />
While major PC vendors are shipping computers with Ubuntu
pre-installed, Shuttleworth noted they are "nervous to promote something
new to PC buyers." That's one reason Canonical believes mobile is
crucial to its success. "If we can get PC buyers familiar with Ubuntu as
a phone and tablet experience, then they may be more willing buy it on
the PC too," he said.<br />
<h2>
Ubuntu is touch-ready, but still a desktop OS</h2>
The Unity desktop on the latest versions of Ubuntu is designed to be
touch-ready, but Shuttleworth defended its usability with mouse and
keyboard. "Unity positions itself to be ready for touch-only platforms
like the tablet and phone, but the desktop flavor of Unity is optimized
for the desktop," he said. "That's why we have such great support for
keyboard navigation and hotkeys, why we have menus and indicators that
you really need a mouse and keyboard to use. Yes, we have big app icons.
But so have some desktop shells for 15 years (before the NextStep Dock,
even)."<br />
"On balance, I think Ubuntu's share of users has continued to rise,
based on trends in hard-to-fake sources like Wikipedia traffic logs," he
continued. "Unity is by far the most widely used shell on Ubuntu,
despite the depressed-hipster 'can't live with unity' meme."<br />
One reader asked whether Ubuntu "might be losing its way amongst the
more technical users" because of decisions including the inclusion of <a href="http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/12/richard-stallman-calls-ubuntu-spyware-because-it-tracks-searches/">Amazon shopping results</a> in Dash searches. The reader also said Ubuntu "forc[ed] a beta-level UI onto users for 3 versions of Ubuntu from 11.04-12.04."<br />
Without addressing those specific points, Shuttleworth replied "We
are all at risk of stagnating if we don't pursue the future, vigorously.
But if you pursue the future, you have to accept that not everybody
will agree with your vision."<br />
Here are a few other questions Shuttleworth answered:<br />
<i>Why doesn't Ubuntu include Android emulation so people can run
their vast catalog of Android apps on their laptop, tablet, or the like?</i><br />
<blockquote>
Because no OS ever succeeded by emulating another OS.
Android is great, but if we want to succeed we need to bring something
new and better to market.<br />
If we said we aimed to run Android apps, then two things would
happen. Every developer that potentially cared about Ubuntu would feel
it was OK to just write an app for Android. And every bug that would be
specific to our implementation of Android's APIs would of course be a
bug for us to fix, not a bug for the app developer. So, we won't do
that.</blockquote>
<i>Will Ubuntu ever be a certified platform for running Oracle databases?</i><br />
<blockquote>
That's not really something I can say "yes" to ;)<br />
We do know that there are some very large Oracle databases running on
Ubuntu, and the people running them get all the support they need from
Oracle. If you're a large Oracle shop, call them up and ask for support
on Ubuntu. But of course, with Oracle's own Linux now in the market,
Oracle is unlikely to promote another Linux until they change strategy.<br />
Nowadays, we get asked about this very rarely—people seem to have
moved to care a lot more about Hadoop and some of the newer big-data
options than they do about traditional SQL. And of course Ubuntu is by
far the most popular OS for large big-data deployments. Perhaps for that
reason we are not pushing Oracle very hard ourselves.</blockquote>
<i>What is the appropriate level of the government's role in space?</i> (Note: Shuttleworth was one of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Shuttleworth#Spaceflight">first space tourists</a>.)<br />
<blockquote>
The national space missions should be exploratory and
seeking to push back boundaries, not crowding out the basics. I think
the agencies failed to recognize that they could facilitate private
sector activity in areas they pioneered, so we got stuck in
agency-monopolized access to low earth orbit for decades. That is
changing now, and the real win will be that agencies get lower-cost lift
and certification and training options that let them plan the really
pioneering missions of tomorrow—Mars and the outer planets.<br />
Regulation is good for established markets—I generally like to see
governments regulate hard to achieve efficiency and level playing fields
in markets. What gets broken is government actors that participate
directly, as Fannie and Freddie do in real estate in the US, for
example. But I'm not a libertarian (apart from a brief spell in student
days)—I've seen far too much corrupt and nasty behavior by corporates
that act in a very narrow set of interests.<br />
So, when you take that trip to low-earth orbit, or parabolic
firecracker ride courtesy of one of the space tourism operators, you'll
be glad of a regulatory framework that aims for passenger safety. And
the professional astronauts, who don't really give a hoot about personal
safety beyond the obvious 'don't be an idiot with my life', will be
glad for the access to deep space that they would get courtesy of a
vibrant market in the 'easy' stuff.</blockquote>

<span id="intelliTxt"><strong style="font-weight: normal;">Canonical announced a few hours ago, June
13th, in a security notice, that a new Linux kernel update for its
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) operating system is now available,
fixing six security vulnerabilities discovered in the Linux kernel
packages by various developers. </strong><br />
<br />
These are the six kernel vulnerabilities found in the kernel packages for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: <a href="http://people.ubuntu.com/%7Eubuntu-security/cve/CVE-2012-2121" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">CVE-2012-2121</a>, <a href="http://people.ubuntu.com/%7Eubuntu-security/cve/CVE-2012-2133" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">CVE-2012-2133</a>, <a href="http://people.ubuntu.com/%7Eubuntu-security/cve/CVE-2012-2313" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">CVE-2012-2313</a>, <a href="http://people.ubuntu.com/%7Eubuntu-security/cve/CVE-2012-2319" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">CVE-2012-2319</a>, <a href="http://people.ubuntu.com/%7Eubuntu-security/cve/CVE-2012-2383" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">CVE-2012-2383</a>, and <a href="http://people.ubuntu.com/%7Eubuntu-security/cve/CVE-2012-2384" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">CVE-2012-2384</a>.<br />
<br />
As usual, you can click on each one to see how it affects your system, or go <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-1473-1/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a> for in-depth descriptions, as it affects other Linux operating systems as well.<br />
<br />
The security flaws can be fixed if you upgrade your system(s) to the <span style="color: teal;"><em>linux-image-3.2.0-25 (3.2.0-25.40)</em></span> package(s). To apply the update, run the Update Manager application.<br />
<br />
Don't forget to reboot your computer after the upgrade!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><strong>ATTENTION: </strong></span><em>Due
to an unavoidable ABI change, the kernel packages have a new version
number, which will force you to reinstall and recompile all third-party
kernel modules you might have installed. Moreover, if you use the
linux-restricted-modules package, you have to update it as well to get
modules which work with the new Linux kernel version.</em><br />

<strong><span style="font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Ubuntu
Tweak is an application to config Ubuntu easier for everyone. It provides many
useful desktop and system options that the default desktop environment doesn't
provide. With its help, you will enjoy with the experience of Ubuntu</span>.</strong><br />

PPA and update the system. Enter the following commands in a terminal
near you.<br /> <br /> <span style="color: teal;"><em>sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa<br /> sudo apt-get update<br /> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak</em></span></span><br />

<span id="intelliTxt">Ubuntu YouTube Lens and Scope are two unique Unity
Dash plugins that allows users to quickly search, filter and access
videos from the popular YouTube website.<br /> <br /> The search results can
be narrowed down using the popular YouTube category types, such as
Autos & Vehicles, Comedy, Education, Entertainment, Film &
Animation, Gaming, Howto & Style, Music, News & Politics,
Nonprofits & Activism, People & Blogs, Pets & Animals,
Science & Technology, Sports, and Travel & Events, implemented
in the Categories filtering section.<br /> <br /> The Order filter section
allows you to order video results by Relevance, Published, Viewcount,
and Rating. The Time filter section allows you to order video results by
Today, This week, This month, and All time. And finally, the Ratings
filter section allows you to sort videos by their ratings.</span><br />

<h2>
Just TV. No wires. No boxes.</h2>
Viewers want entertainment, not electronics. They want to relax and enjoy the movie, not juggle remote controls.<br />
Beautiful simplicity is the driving force behind Ubuntu
TV. It integrates broadcast, time shift, online box office, personal
cloud, apps and disk media experiences - all without wires, connectors
or more boxes. It really is just the TV.<br />
