=== Ubuntu on Windows -- The Ubuntu Userspace for Windows Developers ===

 

Dustin Kirkland writes about news announced at the Microsoft Build 2016

conference, the Windows 10 feature which provides the ability to run

Ubuntu natively. Dustin confirms, "An Ubuntu user space and bash shell,

running natively in a Windows 10 cmd.exe console!" He also gives a short

tutorial on how to do it, answers some questions that might come up, and

ends by stating, "From Microsoft's perspective, a variety of surveys and

user studies have pointed to bash and Linux tools - very specifically,

Ubuntu - be available in Windows, and without resource-heavy full

virtualization."

=== Xubuntu: The Small and the Noisy ===

 

The Xubuntu team writes that they have prepared some tidbits for its

blog to make waiting for the upcoming 16.04 LTS release more enjoyable,

reporting that will publish articles in two different series. One series

covers the fact that that Xubuntu 16.04 LTS will not come with a default

media manager, and invites team members to discuss their favorite media

players. In the second article series, the Xubuntu team will present

smaller details to help you use your system with ease.

=== Xubuntu: My media manager: Clementine ===

 

The Xubuntu team begins their series of discussions with team members

leading up to the Xubuntu 16.04 LTS release where there will no longer

be a default media manager. In this installment of an ongoing series,

Xubuntu team members Kev and Daniel talk about using Clementine and the

features and reasons they've selected it as their media manager.

=== Stephane Graber: LXD 2.0: Image management [5/12] ===

 

Stephane Graber publishes his fifth installment about LXD 2.0. This

article discusses how LXD manages images, and how to create your own. He

states "with LXD, we're taking this one step further by being all-in on

the image based workflow." "All containers are created from an image and

we have advanced image caching and preloading support in LXD to keep the

image store up to date," he stated. He goes on to explain "The ability

to have the exact same image easily available bit for bit on a bunch of

globally distributed system is a big step up from the old LXC days and

leads the way to more reproducible infrastructure."

=== Didier Roche: Ubuntu Make 16.03 features Eclipse JEE, Intellij EAP,

made to begin up[censored] all their hosted PPAs with new SHA-512 digest

based signatures. He writes that the changes resulted in an eight fold

performance improvement and allowed all Xenial release files to be

updated in a timely fashion.

=== Dustin Kirkland: Still have questions about Bash and Ubuntu on

Windows? ===

 

Dustin Kirkland provides two recorded sessions with Microsoft to help

answer questions about the new Bash on Ubuntu on Windows project. The

sessions discuss using the standard image of the Ubuntu userspace on

Windows, using translated syscalls to execute the ELF64 binaries

directly in Windows lightweight processes, how the networking works

normally with Windows Firewall, how apt still functions as expected in

Ubuntu, and more.

=== Xubuntu: The small details: Theme configuration & Menu editing ===

 

The Xubuntu team gives us some tips about some of the smaller details in

Xubuntu, stating, "In this series the Xubuntu team present some of the

smaller details in Xubuntu to help you use your system more efficiently.

Several of the features covered in this series are new for those who

will be upgrading from 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS. We will also cover some

features that have been in Xubuntu for longer, for those that are

completely new to the operating system." The first article shows us how

to modify the theme colors and the second one shows menu editing.

* Ubuntu 16.04 beta now available for LinuxONE -

== In The Press ==

 

=== Go nuts, brother: Ubuntu 16.04 beta - no more auto data-spaffing ===

 

Scott Gilbertson of The Register writes that Xenial Xerus is the first

significant update to the Ubuntu desktop in two years, due to the status

as an LTS release (Long Term Support). He explains that Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

will not just set the framework for all the next releases for the

following two years, it will enjoy full support and updates until 2021.

"There's still a few weeks to go," Gilbertson writes, "and this beta

definitely has some rough edges, but Ubuntu 16.04 is shaping up to be an

excellent release, particularly from an LTS stability standpoint. LTS

releases always have to find a balance between incorporating the best of

what's new with the need to support those features and apps for five years."
