Combo: Slackware Ubuntu 4.11 + 13.37

That is, the final version of Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty The Narwhal) is finally available for download. This new version brings of course a lot of new, one of the most visible is probably the default choice of Unity as a graphical interface instead of Gnome-Panel. Gnome 2.32 remains the default desktop environment.

The kernel passes on his side in version 2.6.38, while the X server org Mesa 1.10 with 7.10 improves support for Radeon and adds support for GPU integrated into Intel's Sandy Bridge. Ubuntu 4.11 finally marks the end of the Netbook Edition (x86/x64), the features of this edition is now integrated into the Desktop edition.

All versions of Ubuntu 11.04 (Desktop, Server, 32 or 64 bits) can be downloaded here. By a curious coincidence - or not - Slackware advantage of launching this new version of Ubuntu to unveil his version 13.37 (sic). Among the new features kernel 2.6.37.6 (with support for SCSI and ATA RAID volume, the SATA or 3D hardware acceleration), KDE 4.5.5, Xfce 4.6.2, Apache 2.2.17, PHP 5.3.6, gcc-4.5.2, 5.12.3 Perl, Python or Ruby 2.6.6 1.9.1-P431.

Version 13.37 of the oldest Linux distributions still under development is available here.
