3G a priority for next Ubuntu

Mobile connections and faster boot times are the top priorities for the release of Ubuntu 8.10

With the release of Ubuntu Linux 8.10, codenamed Intrepid Ibex, just a few months away the development team has released details of the most pressing issues for the final release. Among these are better 3G integration, tighter Firefox integration in KDE, and faster boot times.

Top of the list for Intrepid Ibex is much better support for 3G connections. To do this, Intrepid will ship with network manager 0.7 which already includes support for CDMA ans GSM connections. The development team plans to “assemble a list of frequently used hardware and 3G providers in the markets with the highest 3G penetration”, and add those in as standard profiles and to fix connection issues before final release.

Intrepid Ibex is also expected to have better Firefox integration for the KDE desktop. In current releases there is poor KDE-Firefox integration for a number of protocols, including mailto and solid mime-type support is lacking.

Boot performance is also high on the Intrepid Ibex agenda as Ubuntu eyes out potential in the rapidly-growing ultra-portable market. Key issues to be addressed to improve boot times in Intrepid include better use of multithreading by identifying processors up front and taking advantage of multi-core systems; using prefetch and preload to speed up the process and restructuring the boot order.

Another of the areas getting special attention for the release of Intrepid Ibex is better integration of Flash. The intention is to make the Flash player easier to install and use. As much as possible Intrepid will incorporate Free Flash and the long term goal is to ship a free Flash alternative by default.

OpenOffice.org 3.0 also looks to be guaranteed for inclusion in Intrepid Ibex as the release date for OOo is September 2 and Intrepid Ibex is scheduled for release on October 30.

Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex alpha 2 was released over the past weekend.

The REAL Ubuntu Story

Gather around, children, and I shall tell you about a fantastical story about a dreaded horror! It is a brown horror, that can only be refferred to as a single word: Ubuntu.

It happened not but five years ago. A young white African man named Mark “White Rhino” Shuttleworth visited the tribe of Poo`Fu`kku. He had traveled there because he realized with utter horror that he had no purpose in life. A rambling homeless person in a bar had told him: “Go South, young man, go South!”

And so he had went. He experienced the rich, unusual culture of the Poo`Fu`kku tribe. He lived on the exotic diet of ebola and Gwanta (Thin cookies made out of dirt and butter.)

And then came the rituals. Oh, the rituals. They had brought forth the rituals of the North, and made them wonderful. Mark’s favorite was known as “Poomba”. Twelve young girls of the Poo`Fu `kku tribe stood around him, and he chose his bride. She was a 14 year old, crippled girl who had lost her leg due to cancer. They were married, and they celebrated by eating a very rare mushroom: Amanita Muscaria (commonly known as fly agaric)

After eating this hallucigenic plant, Mark and his wife began to urinate upon one another. They licked up every droplet, and entered a second stage of hallucigenic euphoria.

When he had awoken the next morning, he had noticed that his wife, “The JungleBunny” was dead. In her place lay an elderly shaman named “Uhu Kaluru” (Warty Warthog). He looked down, and realized that his entire chest was covered in the shaman’s feces. It was true love at first sight.

Uhu and Mark grew very close over the course of the next several weeks. The entire village saw the shaman as Mark’s new wife, and Mark felt happy. He always brought flowers for Uhu, and Uhu would ride him well throughout the night in return.

One day, Uhu and Mark wandered into an open field. They both could feel the raw sexual tension in the air, and they began to make love like never before. Every animal in the jungle heard their moans of pleasure, and they obliged by defecating all over the two lovebirds.

The hallucinogens had passed through their systems many times over by now. They were in such a high and wonderous state, they both had the same thought in their minds: Why not share this love with everyone?

And so they ran down to the village. They gathered up fourteen boys and a young baby, and they happily returned to the field and had an orgy. The field cows observed this scene with joy, and they ejaculated all over the writhing mass of asses and balls.

The weeks wore onward. Finally, the orgy was finished, and all of the children died. Uhu reassured Mark that this was natural.

Amongst the African-French kisses, Uhu told Mark that the concept of Ubuntu should be smeared upon everyone’s chests, to ensure true happiness and unity. For the first time, Mark had truly understood the concept of Ubuntu Freedom.

After his wonderous trip, he decided to try out that newfangled “Windows XP” that he saw for sale at a local electronics outlet. He became outraged that a single blue box would cost so much, and so he vowed to create an alternative. He decided to rip off of the Debian project, which he used to supply proprietary code to.

After forking off the kernel and code severely to supply incompatibilities with Debian, Mark spent several million dollars on ex-employees of Apple, Microsoft, IBM, HP, and other software companies. It is not a coincidence that he hired people who had all been fired from their previous jobs for incompetence. Canonical was now a force to be reckoned with.

It took a solid year to produce something substantial enough. In the end, they had a bloated, slow, buggy distro that only an utter moron could use. To add a finishing touch, Mark smeared the remainder of the sex-poop he had from his experience in the jungle, and he smeared it on a piece of cardboard. He then scanned it into his computer. The Ubuntu color scheme had been completed.

After all this hard work, Mark was still displeased that his distro wasn’t buggy enough. He designed the LTS (Love-Time Suckling) to provide a featureset of outdated libraries, incompatible versions, and non-GPL’ed code. It was then offered as a “stable” service pack.

Every six months, the Ubuntu team works on making the distro even worse. That is because of a concept learned by Mark: when people are miserable, hold their hands. Then, smear more feces on their chests. They end up mindlessly worshipping their leader, and love Ubuntu like the other 600,000 brainwashed users.

And their community? It’s run by absolute jackasses, and followed by utter retards. Hopefully, one day they will pass away, and the world shall go on.

And THAT’S the Ubuntu story.

from Windows to Ubuntu

Well, as we mentioned over on the Jazz Team Blog, my Jazz teammates and I just shipped Rational Team Concert 1.0, the first GA product built on the Jazz Platform. More on that later.

Since I?ve been working on what became Rational Team Concert for the last three years, I?ve gotten into quite a groove with regards to the technologies that I use and how I use them. But there were a couple of things I didn?t like and I promised myself that I?d fix them once we shipped and I could spare a few days of being less than 100%.

Chief among these ?things I?d like to change when I have the time? was my use of Windows XP as my operating system. For quite a while I was happy to use WinXP - mainly because I knew how to use it and IBM?s internal set of applications are optimized for Windows XP users. And when I say ?optimized? here I mean in the sense of lack of barriers - available, tested, and with support.

But after the past couple of years as I got more into web development, I started to experience some pain as a WinXP user because it seems like most of the interesting web technologies are optimized for Linux or Mac users, and for Windows users there?s usually a short appendix in the doc that says ?If you are unfortunate enough to use Windows, the following has been said to work??

So the day after we declared bit freeze on Team Concert, I downloaded a Ubuntu ISO CD image, burned that, backed up my data, then formatted my hard drive and installed Linux.

The remainder of this entry I?ll write in Steve O?Grady Q&A format so I don?t have to think in full paragraphs

Q: How did the installation go?
A: It was truly easy. Just insert the CD, restart my Thinkpad, and let the Ubuntu installer do its thing. The last time I tried to install Linux was probably about 5 years ago and I remember it asking me all kinds of questions for which I didn?t know the answer. I don?t even recall Ubuntu asking me any questions, and if they did they must have been trivial because I don?t remember them.

Q: What was your first impression of the user experience?
A: I was really impressed. After installing just rebooted, logged in, and I was in a windowing system which was very easy to understand. The top panel has three simple, logical menus (Applications, Places, System), shortcuts to key programs, then the right side of the top menu has iconographic shortcuts to some important system applications (networking, sound, date time, system control). The bottom panel just lists the open programs and has some other miscellaneous controls related to desktop management (minimize all windows, switch between desktop, etc.)

My biggest takeaway on the window manager user experience is that it seems like they?ve taken care to strip out as much low-value cruft and redundancy as possible, so that you?re left with a small set of orthogonal, useful controls.

Q: Any problems?
A: There were two sets of problems: 1) Finding and learning the Linux equivalent for simple Windows programs like Notepad and Paint. 2) Getting IBM stuff to work that was mainly developed and tested for Windows and/or Internet Explorer web browser. To get over these humps I bought a license for VMWare and spent much of my first week within a Windows XP virtual machine. Luckily VMWare?s networking worked much better than I remember it working, so between VMWare and the Windows XP image with VPN and Lotus Notes, I could get basic things done like work email from home.

Luckily my Jazz colleague Matt Lavin has been using Ubuntu for over a year, so he was able to help me learn how to do some basic but important things like connect my system to the internal Debian package server.

I?m still having problems using Open Office vs. Microsoft Office. When I modified a Powerpoint file in Open Office, it ended up getting mangled back in Powerpoint. I?m not sure who?s fault it was, but it sure was frustrating. I may look into running emulated MS Office on Linux.

Using Ubuntu Linux on a flash drive and run it under Windows

The following article is going to tell you everything you need to know in order to make a USB flash drive with Ubuntu Linux installed, similar to the ones we sell here at PenLinux.com. However, there are a few things that you need to know first:

1. This method will not work with every brand of flash drive, please be aware of that fact before you start. Here at PenLinux.com it has been tested and worked on SanDisk drives.

2. This should be a no-brainer, but you will lose all data you currently have on the flash drive.

3. Depending on your computer and internet connection this could take you anywhere from a few hours to a few days.

Okay, now let’s get started…

Let’s start with everything you are going to need to pull this off:

- Obviously you need a USB flash drive (at least 2GB).

- You’ll need a working computer running Microsoft Windows with a USB port available.

- A copy of the Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy .ISO file (it’s 750MB).

- A copy of Qemu (this is the program that allows Ubuntu to actually run on Windows).

- A copy of Kqemu accelerator. This helps Qemu speed up Ubuntu.

- A copy of startubuntu.tar - This file holds two custom batch and img files.

- The HP-USB format tool to clear your USB drive.

Now it’s time to start… step by step.

1. Click here and download the HP-USB format tool. Install it and format your USB drive to FAT.

2. Click here and download the Ubuntu Edgy .ISO file. Remember, this is a big file (750MB).

3. Click here and download the Qemu program. Create a folder on your flash drive and name it Qemu. Now extract the contents of the Qemu zip file to this folder on your flash drive.

4. Click here and download the Kqemu accelerator. Now create a folder inside the Qemu folder on your flash drive and name it “Kqemu”. Now extract the contents of the Kqemu tar.gz file to the “Kqemu” folder you just made on the flash drive.

5. Once the Ubuntu Edgy 6.10 .ISO file is finished downloading, move it to your flash drive. Place it inside the Qemu folder.

6. Click here and download the startubuntu.tar file. Take the two files inside the startubuntu.tar file and move them to the Qemu folder on your flash drive (the same folder you just put the .ISO file).

That’s it! You’ve just (hopefully) made a working USB flash drive with Ubuntu Linux installed on it… but wait… how do I USE it?

1. Go to the Qemu folder on your flash drive and locate the ubuntu.bat file. Double click it… this should start Ubuntu.

2a. You will soon see the Ubuntu boot screen. You have 30 seconds to make a choice… you will choose “usb” from the list, but wait! You need to do something special before hitting enter to let Ubuntu know that you want to save your settings. So, hit the “F6″ key and you will see a string of words at the bottom that looks something like this: “Boot Options root=/dev/ram rw quiet splash –”. The “F6″ key will allow you to add a boot command at the end of this string, so type the word “persistent”. The string now looks like this: “Boot Options root=/dev/ram rw quiet splash — persistent”.

2b. You will need to type the “persistent” command everytime you boot. If you forget, or choose a different boot option you will only get the default Ubuntu desktop, not the one you saved.

3. Now Ubuntu will load. Depending on your computer this could take anywhere from 1-5 minutes (maybe longer if your computer is really old).

4. To switch between Ubuntu and Windows type “ctrl+alt”.

5. When shutting down Ubuntu make sure you select “shut down” and wait for the Ubuntu screen to tell you to press enter. After that, you can close the Ubuntu window. If you just unplug the drive without doing this, you could corrupt it.

Final thoughts

That’s it. You now have the same basic flash drive that we sell here at PenLinux.com. Please note that we do not offer support for this tutorial, if you need help you might check out the Ubuntu Forums… or you could skip this whole thing and buy one that’s guaranteed to work from us!

Why you should be excited about Ubuntu 7.10

I always enjoy it when a new version of an operating system hits the streets. I like moving through all the new features, finding out what was included and what was left out and generally enjoying myself for a few hours just looking around. But then, I’m a geek. I know not a ton of other people share this passion.Even if you’re not as passionate about new operating systems as I am, if you’re at all a Linux fan you should be excited about the latest Ubuntu release. Why? Because it’s going to fix one of the four major issues keeping Linux off desktops.

In short, here’s my major beefs with my favorite operating system.

No way to configure X.org without hacking a text configuration file.
Lack of modern games developed for Linux.
Lack of minty, fresh off the shelf drivers for all the latest video cards.
Inability to purchase bare metal machines without paying the Microsoft Tax. (Starting with Dell however, this may be going away fast).

Notice that three of them are interrelated? Graphics, graphics, graphics. This is the major blockade that’s keeping Linux from moving more swiftly on to the desktop. Thankfully with the new X.org (7.3) which will begin to make appearances in Gutsy (7.10) will go a long way towards fixing this issue.

Not only does X.org 7.3 have much better monitor autodetection, come with a new Intel driver and have RandR support (think output hotplug – or fast switching of monitors or output devices) but it will also jive with BulletProofX and DisplayConfigGTK.

So what the heck are those things? BulletProofX is an attempt to have Ubuntu always boot into a graphical environment, even if the xorg.conf file is bad. Think of it as a failsafe mode. From this 800×600 or 600×400 screen you can use DisplayConfigGTK to configure a new xorg.conf file.

And what’s so special about DisplayConfigGTK? It’s a graphical way to adjust your display! Not only does that rhyme, but it’s bringing Linux in line with every other major operating system out there. You can now adjust your display settings, set up a dual-monitor system or have several display profiles and you can do it all graphically. Finally!

All of this is new stuff, and it may not all make it into Ubuntu 7.10, as many aspects are fairly modular but it’s a damned good start.

Hats off to all the folks who are working on these projects, from the X.org folks to the Ubuntu developers to the Janes and Joes like you and I who test the Alpha and Beta releases and provide bug reports. This is a huge step forward and we should all be proud.

Ubuntu 7.10 Features Overview

Announced at the middle of April 2007, the next version of Ubuntu Linux distribution (7.10, codename Gutsy Gibbon) has already started to stir up a lot of interest among the Ubuntu fans around the world. The Ubuntu team announced today the features that Ubuntu 7.10 will bring in late October this year. Here’s a quick overview of the features you will find in Ubuntu 7.10:

Desktop

Ubuntu 7.10 will ship with the latest version of the GNOME desktop (2.20), which will be released a few weeks before the final version of Gutsy Gibbon. On the other hand, Kubuntu will ship with the latest version of the KDE desktop (3.5.7). Moreover, Kubuntu users will have the possibility of installing KDE 4.0 RC2 packages.

Ubuntu 7.10 will be the first distribution to include the newly merged Beryl and Compiz projects, which will be the default window manager on systems that will support it.

Hardware Support

The Linux kernel 2.6.22 with the usual selection of updated and additional drivers will be part of the Ubuntu 7.10 release.

Ubuntu 7.10 will include the most awaited release of Xorg, version 7.3, which brings bleeding-edge features such as:

better graphics hardware support;
hotplug monitors and input devices;
easier configuration;
hotplugging-supported drivers (no xorg.conf).

You should also expect improvements to the Restricted Driver Manager, and the “winmodem” chips will be supported out of the box (where drivers are available).

Mobile

Ubuntu 7.10 will be the first release available for hand-held devices and other
mobile/embedded form factors, through the Mobile and Embedded edition.

Server

Ubuntu 7.10 Server Edition aims to attract more and more server administrators and it will bring attractive features for small businesses and organizations. Novel’s AppArmor security framework will also be available for those that want it.

Stability and Performance

Last but not least, Ubuntu 7.10 is promised to be more stable and powerful than the previous releases were. The system should work much better when the filesystem is full, allowing the user to make room and continue his work without interruption.

Moreover, Upstart 0.5 will be on board of Ubuntu 7.10 to provide flexible and reliable service supervision. Also, the boot process will “suffer” improvements and reduce start-up time.

The release schedule for Gutsy Gibbon was also made public. The development process started as expected, on June 7th, with the first Alpha release, and it will end somewhere around October 18th with the final release:

June 7th - Tribe CD 1 (first alpha release)
June 28st - Tribe CD 2 (second alpha release)
July 26th - Tribe CD 3 (third alpha release)
August 9th - Tribe CD 4 (fourth alpha release)
August 23rd - Tribe CD 5 (fifth alpha release)
September 6th - Tribe CD 6 (sixth alpha release)
September 27th - Beta Release
October 11th - Release Candidate
October 18th - Final Release

Ubuntu Feisty experience

So part of my “see what all the hype is about” thing is trying out Ubuntu on the desktop. It also helps that a) my 3 year old XP install really needed a nice clean format etc and b) my hard drive developed errors and had to be replaced anyway. I’d been threatening to install some linux distro on my laptop and the hard drive thing was the catalyst. Ubuntu seems to be the most hyped distro and Feisty was recently released, plus it was only a 1 CD download. Also Ubuntu kind of has the hype of being easy and “just work”(tm) which is pretty much what I want from my desktop.

So… installation was pretty quick, not too many options but that’s fine. I was pretty impressed that WiFi worked out of the box (I replaced my Broadcom based mini-PCI card with an Atheros based one a while ago in anticipation). Next to do was dial a PPPoE connection. Um, no shortcut or anything, but help told me to run pppoeconf which worked after accepting the defaults to a million questions. Also told me to use “pon dsl-provider”, “poff” and “plog”. Fair enough. It seems that dsl-provider did get added to the networking applet on the top panel. +10 points for working. -1 point for not having an indicator of any sort of whether I was actually connected (I added a network monitor with ppp0 but that’s not quite the same). It also needs to tell me when my ADSL has been conveniently reset by the evil overlords. And a way to automatically connect when my WiFi connects to a certain AP would be good too.

The interface looks very very boring to start off with so I played around with themes etc a bit. Why the hell are all the buttons and menu bars so huge on all the themes that come with Ubuntu? Are we blind? I honestly felt rather cramped real estate wise because of all the huge buttons/menus. “Redmond” and “SmoothGNOME” seem to be the only ones with reasonable sizes. -2 points for looking like poo. This isn’t ‘95.

Next was getting connected to my desktop PC that I’d backed up all my stuff onto. That worked fine with the Places > Network menu and “smb://”. I used the little “Connect to server” applet in the top panel to connect, strangely it doesn’t actually connect you, it just places a shortcut on the desktop. While I noticed this the first time it’s not immediately obvious. Maybe a little checkbox like “open now?” or something? +5 points for working.

+5 for Gaim connecting to MSN etc. -1 for not supporting custom emoticons (how hard can it be?). +5 for connecting to Google Talk, and -2 for making me Google for the settings I needed. I thought they were collaborating or something? Surely there should just be a Google Talk option there then?

I downloaded whatever updates there were. apt-get is a dream and one of the reasons I chose Ubuntu. It’s like the friendly hip version of Debian. After the update I installed a few things including Automatix. My downloads were also going at the max speed for my ADSL line which I was pretty happy about. +20 for apt-get being totally awesome and fast servers.

I see this is a bug so maybe it’s only Feisty, but Totem won’t play files over “smb://”. Mounting it “properly” worked fine though. A bit of an extension to Nautilus to do that would be cool. Or even to that “Connect to server” applet. I noticed a few other apps also don’t like opening files over “smb://” though, like Linux DC++ which tried to hash “/” when I gave it an “smb://” type address. Movies in Totem were super jerky and unwatchable until I converted to Xine. For some strange reason movies in Xine were super bright though. -10 for still not being able to watch a movie properly.

I tried enabling “Desktop Effects” just to see if it would work on my on-board Intel graphic. It did surprisingly well but completely killed movies or any vis etc.

Another small thing I noticed is the network monitor applet and the system monitor network section show “%” as the units but it seems that 100% is adjusted to whatever the max throughput has been while you were staring at it. It also doesn’t distinguish between or even show what adapter it’s monitoring. There’s no options anywhere for this either. This makes it pretty useless because the numbers are meaningless. -2 points.

I only noticed this when I tried to play a DVD, but my CD-ROM is not detected at all. Damn. Bit of a disaster. noapic or noacpi or something might help, haven’t tried.
I tried out “Swiftfox”. Well actually I’m trying out Firefox at the same time as Ubuntu because I normally use Opera. I ran into a pretty random issue with Swiftfox, I can’t go to any typed in URLs. It’s like “enter” or the “Go” button just don’t do anything at all. I can click links etc fine but can’t go to a URL. I could even use the Google search thing. Using normal Firefox now and hopefully it won’t happen again (edit: Nope, happens in Firefox too, tried switching to another theme). Firefox still insists on opening new windows all the time, I only want 1 window with TABS ffs! Arg! I changed my prefs to open new windows in a new tab but some links still open new windows. Also since I have no middle click button I’d REALLY appreciate a setting/extension that opens bookmarks in new tabs as opposed to the current tab. I know I can hold Ctrl but I don’t want to, I want to change the default behaviour not continuously change to alternate behaviour.

Ok, what the hell is up with vi (or Vim rather) in Ubuntu? The up,down,right and left arrows insert an “A\n”,”B\n”,”C\n”,”D\n” respectively in INSERT mode. The backspace key deletes characters but doesn’t show them as removed until you move to another line. It’s not the terminal because SSH’ing somewhere else and using vi works fine.

Are there any image viewers for psd files? Something like IrfanView for that other OS. The GIMP scores -10 points just because. Why can’t they use MDI type windows? Or do those not exist in Linux? It’s impossible to see what’s going on in GIMP unless it’s on a separate virtual desktop. Speaking of windows I found a few times you would do something like open a new app or even just a dialog within an app and the window would appear behind the current one instead of right on top. -5 points for that.

So that brings to points total to: I don’t know, the points are like Whose Line Is It Anyway… If I can get the CDRW/DVD-ROM working I might stick with Ubuntu a little bit longer, otherwise I think next on the list is PCLinuxOS. Maybe Sabayon.
