As we approach the launch of Ubuntu 8.10, it's time to create space for future plans, and so I'm writing to introduce you to The Jaunty Jackalope. Jaunty, the code name for what will most likely become Ubuntu 9.04, will be the focus of our efforts from November through to April next year.
Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope doesn't show the update icon in the system tray when there are updates available. This is because the update system was changed in Ubuntu Jaunty:
I decided to put up this guide which shows how to install the latest Wine release in Ubuntu 9.04 using 3 different methods. The default Jaunty repositories come with Wine 1.0.1, but the latest release is 1.1.24 and a new version is available every two weeks, so here is a tutorial which explains how to get the last Wine release in Ubuntu or Kubuntu Jaunty.
Ubuntu 9.04 i.e Jaunty is the newest Ubuntu stable version and i am going to discuss here how to install ubuntu Jaunty desktop with step by step procedure.I hope this will help some ubuntu users to install ubuntu edgyeft in their machines,laptops, etc.
I once wrote a tutorial here on installing Conky on Ubuntu. Unfortunately, that guide will not work on the latest version of Ubuntu, which is 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope). That’s why I'm going to make an update on that one with this post.
I loved Amarok 1.4 and even used it in Gnome. Then, I really hated all the 2.x series until this 2.2 RC1. It's kind of slow, but it finally looks like a real music player and reminds me why I liked Amarok so much.
If you want to upgrade From Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10) to Jaunty (9.04) use this tutorial for faster upgrades. We are going to use apt-p2p for this tutorial.apt-p2p is a p2p proxy for apt dowloads, it will act as a proxy between apt requests and a repository server, downloading any request files from peers (if possible), else will fallback to direct HTTP download.
