[ubuntu-us-ut] [Fwd: Tribe 5 Released]

[Christer Edwards]

For those that haven't seen the news, Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy" Tribe (alpha)
5 was released yesterday.  Any of you that can afford testing on a spare
machine it is *much* appreciated.

I have been running Gutsy in production since Tribe (alpha) 2 and it has
been very stable.  The earlier we can get the bugs squased in the alpha
releases the fewer bugs end up in the final, remember.

Enjoy!

As an alpha release there are still bugs, notably some intel video
drivers have problems in this release.

 * Some Intel graphics drivers fail to load
   (https://launchpad.net/bugs/133824,
   https://launchpad.net/bugs/134284)

 * The Restricted Manager notifies users about the availability of
   restricted drivers also on the live
   CD. (https://launchpad.net/bugs/134227)

 * Printing does not work in the live system. Once the system is
   installed, it works fine. As a workaround in the live system,
   execute this command: sudo aa-complain
   cupsd. (https://launchpad.net/bugs/131976)

 * Kubuntu usplash does not run on the live CD
   (https://launchpad.net/bugs/134225)

Please report bugs to the Ubuntu bug tracker on Launchpad:
