Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 3 Released Later Today - What's new?
The third and final Alpha of the Lucid development cycle is due for release this evening - but what can you expect to find inside?

Plymouth
Pretty much everyone should now see a Plymouth powered boot screen during boot up as the open-source Nouveau driver has now been included - and enabled - by default for Nvidia users. ATi and Intel users already have KMS support.
