The Ubuntu developers are moving quickly to bring you the absolute
latest and greatest software the Open Source community has to offer. The
Precise Pangolin Beta 2 release of Ubuntu 12.04 gives a preview of the
next LTS version of Ubuntu.
This include the following update:
@ Beta-2 includes the 3.2.0-20.33 Ubuntu kernel which is based on the v3.2.12 upstream stable Linux kernel.
@ As with Beta-1, the Beta-2 kernel no longer carries separate amd64 -server and -generic kernel flavors. @ Due to concerns surrounding OverlayFS, AUFS has been re-enabled for the Beta-2 kernel.
@ Other notable Beta-2 changes include the addition of seccomp filter patches, an updated AppArmor patch set, misc kernel config changes and bug fixes.
@ The default music player has been switched to Rhythmbox, which again includes the UbuntuOne music store.
@ LibreOffice has been updated to 3.5.1 Please report any regressions that you notice.
@ The System Setting's "Appearance" panel now allows users to easily configure some properties of Unity.
@ Nautilus quicklist support has been added to Unity launcher.
@ There is a new way to quickly search and access any desktop application's and indicator's menu, called the "HUD".
@ And many more...
How to update? To upgrade from Ubuntu 11.10 or Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a
desktop system, press Alt+F2 and type in "update-manager -d" (without
the quotes) into the command box. Update Manager should open up and tell
you: New distribution release '12.04' is available. Click Upgrade and
follow the on-screen instructions.
Or, you want to upgrade from Ubuntu 11.10 or Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a server system: install the update-manager-core package if it is not already installed; launch the upgrade tool with the command sudo do-release-upgrade -d;
and follow the on-screen instructions. Note that the server upgrade is
now more robust and will utilize GNU screen and automatically re-attach
in case of e.g. dropped connection problems.
