=== Ubuntu App Developer Blog: The versioning of the Ubuntu UI Toolkit ===

 

Zoltan Balogh tells us of UITK version 1.3. Previously the UITK

targeted touch devices, but with this version it will support not just

any screen size; but also keyboard & mouse (missing from prior

versions). Lots of bug fixes are included; and the API will be

supported for 1 minor release, so until 1.5 at a minimum.

=== Bryan Quigley: Ubuntu 16.04 LiveCD Memory Usage Compared ===

 

Bryan Quigley has conducted an analysis of memory usage among various

flavor versions of Ubuntu 16.04. He concludes that while Lubuntu is

the most efficient in terms of memory usage, he also asserts that

memory limited users should change flavors rather than changing to a

32-bit version.

=== Kubuntu - Kubuntu Party 4 - The Gathering of Halflings ===

finished projects we've all got lying around our Geekdoms, and

fetching them along for a Show 'n' Tell. As ever, there will be party

fun and games, an opportunity to kick back from all the contributing

that we do, so join us and enjoy good company and laughter."

=== Is Ubuntu's Convergence the Future of Linux? ===

 

Bruce Byfield writing for Datamation reflects upon the vision of

Ubuntu Convergence, a single software platform across devices. He

expresses skepticism as to whether convergence is really a desired

feature for most users and his expectation that it's most valuable for

folks who travel a lot, writing: "For those who travel, or move from

site to site during their work day, convergence should be exactly what

they are looking for."

=== Ubuntu BQ Aquaris M10 Review - Part 1: Hardware ===

 

JC Torres of SlashGear reviews the hardware of the bq Aquaris M10,

covering the technical specs, hardware design, performance, display,

battery life, camera and speakers. He concludes: "When it comes to

hardware, the bq Aquaris M10 can perhaps be best described as

something that 'Just Works'. That can be taken both ways. On the one

hand, it has a no fuss approach to features, with hardware that

performs decently for the price you are paying for it. On the other

hand, it also means that, as far as hardware and design is concerned,

the tablet is unexciting and unassuming. Depending on your particular

inclination, that might very well be your cup of tea."

=== Hands-on with Ubuntu MATE 16.04 on the Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 ===

 

J.A. Watson for ZDNet reviews Ubuntu MATE 16.04 on the Raspberry Pi 2

and 3, walking through several gotchas he found during installation.

Once booted, he explores the system and reports that "Ubuntu MATE on

the Raspberry Pi 3 is honestly quite pleasant. It boots very quickly"

and writing of the Pi 2 that "even on the slower model is not

distractingly bad." He concludes " Some people (including me) might

argue that there are really not many (or any) significant advantages

of Ubuntu MATE over Raspbian, but even I can't deny that MATE looks

more polished, and if you are accustomed to Ubuntu in general or MATE

in particular, then this distribution is the way to go."
