Ubuntu Beta: A Glimpse Of What's To Come In 7.10
The Ubuntu team has announced the beta release of Ubuntu 7.10 and its variants, including Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Xubuntu. The final release of Ubuntu 7.10, dubbed "Gutsy Gibbon," will happen sometime next month.
Today’s beta release gives a glimpse of some of the features slated for next month’s final release — GNOME 2.20 and the default installation of NTFS-3g, which provides read/write access to Windows (NTFS) partitions are probably the biggest new features.
The Ubuntu 7.10 desktop beta also features Compiz Fusion, the 3-D window manager and desktop effects package, as well as improved printer support in GNOME with printers automatically configured as they are connected.
