Puntualmente y con la regularidad y precisión que las caracteriza Canonical ha publicado la nueva versión de Ubuntu 21.04 nombre en código Hirsute Hippo.

No solo ha publicado la versión oficial de Ubuntu sino también la de todos sus sabores (derivadas oficiales de la distro). Algo a lo que ya nos tiene acostumbrados la distro creada hace más de 15 años por Mark Shuttleworth.

A continuación todos los enlaces de cada distribución y características a través del sitio Distrowatch:

Canonical has released Ubuntu 21.04 which carries the code name "Hirsute Hippo". The distribution's new version ships with GNOME running on a Wayland session as the default desktop and includes the built-in ability to join Active Directory domains. "Ubuntu machines can join an Active Directory (AD) domain at installation for central configuration. AD administrators can now manage Ubuntu workstations, which simplifies compliance with company policies. Ubuntu 21.04 adds the ability to configure system settings from an AD domain controller. Using a Group Policy Client, system administrators can specify security policies on all connected clients, such as password policies and user access control, and Desktop environment settings, such as login screen, background and favourite apps. Ubuntu 21.04 uses Wayland by default, a significant leap forward in security. Firefox, OBS Studio and many applications built with Electron and Flutter take advantage of Wayland automatically, for smoother graphics and better fractional scaling."

Martin Wimpress has announced the release of Ubuntu MATE 21.04. The new version offers nine months of support and includes several visual changes. "The MATE Desktop team released maintenance updates for the current stable 1.24 release of MATE. We've updated the MATE packaging in Debian to incorporate all these bug fixes and translation updates and synced those packages to Ubuntu so they all feature in this 21.04 release. There are no new features, just fixes. Ayatana Indicators: A highlight of the Ubuntu MATE 20.10 release was the transition to Ayatana Indicators. You can read the 20.10 release notes to learn what Ayatana Indicators are and why this transition will be beneficial in the long term. We've added new versions of Ayatana Indicators including ‘Indicators' settings to the Control Center, which can be used to configure the installed indicators."

The Ubuntu Studio team have announced the release of version 21.04 of their multimedia-focused distribution. The project's latest release will be supported through to January 2022 and includes several updated utilities: "This release includes Plasma 5.21.4, the full-featured desktop environment made by KDE. It uses the Materia theme and the icons are Papirus icons. Studio Controls has seen further development as its own independent project and has been updated to version 2.1.4. Ardour 6.6+ (a future 6.7 snapshot). Ardour has been updated to version 6.6+, meaning this is a git snapshot of what will eventually be Ardour 6.7. This had to be done because Ardour 6.5 started to fail to build with a newer library introduced into the Ubuntu archives, and could only be resolved with this snapshot. We hope to have Ardour 6.7 in via official updates once released. Agordejo is new to Ubuntu Studio this release. It was brought-in for those unsatisfied with RaySession's audio session management but found New Session Manager's interface to be too old and clunky."

Xubuntu es un sabor oficial de Ubuntu que usa el entorno de escritorio XFCE que se adapta bastante bien para los PC de limitados recursos. Viejos en una palabra.

Datados dicen los más técnicos. Fuera de moda dicen algunos geeks. Lo cierto es que no soportan la marea de megabytes que se descargan diariamente a través de las diversas plataformas, apps, software vario, etc.

Como quien escribe este post.

Lo importante de Canonical es que sigue manteniendo el soporte técnico, incluso a LTS, para una distro que se adapta a una cantidad de PC que, de a poco están desapareciendo del mercado.

Xubuntu 20.10 "Groovy Gorilla" no se olvida de los viejos ordenadores.

Porque tarde o temprano claudicano. O porque está siendo substituídos (todos en general) por los celulares de útima generación o por las tabletas. 

Sin olvidarme de los portátiles (notebooks) porque los netbooks han quedado relegados en su gran parte al ámbito escolar, especialmente en aquellos países que los entregan gratis como parte del plan de estudios.

Hecha esta breve introducción paso a contarles las novedades en la última versión de Xubuntu 20.10 nombre en código "Groovy Gorilla" publicada a fines del mes pasado (octubre).

"This is the fourth Lubuntu release with LXQt as the main desktop environment. The Lubuntu project, in 18.10 and successive releases, will no longer support the LXDE desktop environment or tools in the Ubuntu archive, and will instead focus on the LXQt desktop environment. You can find the following major applications and toolkits installed by default in this release: LXQt 0.14.1. Qt 5.12.8 LTS. Mozilla Firefox 75, which will receive updates from the Ubuntu Security Team throughout the support cycle of the release. The LibreOffice 6.4.2 suite. VLC 3.0.9.2, for viewing media and listening to music. Featherpad 0.12.1, for notes and code editing. Discover Software Center 5.18.4, for an easy, graphical way to install and update software.
