[Ubuntu-SG] Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) Beta Released

[Harris Ngan]

Welcome to the club. I have the same temptation to move to feisty but I shall wait till the 19th April. Just some doubt from myself. Is there going to be more proprietary drivers/codecs included in the new version since the different partnership that Ubuntu has taken up?
 
Falchion: Does ubuntu not working well with your palm (Kpilot, Jpilot?) and Ipod (amarmok, banshee etc)? I can't say for sure but it seems to work with my palm out of the box (Sony Clie) and I think I got my ipod sync as well. I don't play games though so i don't say dual boot is no good.
 
Anyway, shall we somehow do a mass mailing to the mailing list to make sure everyone are aware of the new and cool features of ubuntu?:P
 
Harris

Greetings All,Have been lurking on this mailing list for a few months now, but with the release of Feisty coming soon, I figured it would be best for me to make a formal introduction. Been using Ubuntu from the Breezy days, but only mainly started using it as my main OS since Dapper. I run it on a DIY desktop machine with dual-boot to WinXP as I still need my games and the synchronization modules for the SplashSuite series of programs that I use on my Palm OS device. Also too much in love with Winamp and the easy integration it has with my iPod and my networked harddrive. As for the release of Feisty beta, I am itching to upgrade to it and test it out, but I'm quite wary of messing with all my little tweaks and hacks, especially of those to my xorg.conf file which includes stuff like getting my extra mouse buttons to work and more screen resolution options. I am also using the nvidia-glx package (9746) which now doesn't break X windows with each kernel upgrade and have beryl working great and fast with it. Still lots of Feisty beta problems with Nvidia being thrown around on the forums, which just makes me want to bite the bullet and wait for stable release. The itch to upgrade doesn't go away though....RegardsColin "Falchion"
