Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 1, First Impression

Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 1 is out, I download it and installed it on VirtualBox.

I have installed pre-alpha release but I didn't update it to alpha 1 because I wanted fresh installation.

First i wanted to install it to My old PC but notice problems with Ubuntu Software Center when I tried Ubuntu 10.04 in Live mode.


They changed cd boot menu, it is same but image is white.

Installation is same as in Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 pre-alpha

Check Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha Installation Video

Installation went fine.

I had problems with Compiz after installing virtualbox guest additions, by default it enables compiz when drivers for GPU are installed (and I enabled 3D in virtual box) when I restarted Ubuntu cursor was gone. It was there but it was transparent.

I solve this issue with disabling effects (compiz).

And I notice that mouse integration didn't work.

I didn't have this problems after installing virtualbox guest additions in Ubuntu 10.04 pre-alpha.

They didn't change application stack in Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 1, Gimp, F-Spot are here Music Store and other new announced application are not included.

There are less games, only 5 games.



The Indicator Applet still have bug, also Ubuntu Software Center doesn't starts it work but You must update Ubuntu (there is fix in updates).




I din't tested it more because i was sick last 4 days, this weak I will post more info about Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 1.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx Alpha 1 Available For Download

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx Alpha 1 is available for download.

• Desktop CD

The desktop CD allows you to try Ubuntu without changing your computer at all, and at your option to install it permanently later. This type of CD is what most people will want to use. You will need at least 256MB of RAM to install from this CD.
There are two images available, each for a different type of computer:
PC (Intel x86) desktop CD
For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows, as well as newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors. Choose this if you are at all unsure.
64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD
Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon, Core 2). If you have a non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit code, use the Intel x86 images instead.

• Server install CD

The server install CD allows you to install Ubuntu permanently on a computer for use as a server. It will not install a graphical user interface.
There are two images available, each for a different type of computer:

• Alternate install CD

The alternate install CD allows you to perform certain specialist installations of Ubuntu. It provides for the following situations:
setting up automated deployments;
upgrading from older installations without network access;
LVM and/or RAID partitioning;
installs on systems with less than about 256MB of RAM (although note that low-memory systems may not be able to run a full desktop environment reasonably).
In the event that you encounter a bug using the alternate installer, please file a bug on the debian-installer package.
