14 DAY TRIAL // Canonical released last evening the final wallpaper for the upcoming Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) operating system.
A couple of weeks ago, we've announced that Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) has seventeen new beautiful wallpapers and a lightweight and eye-candy theme, that will please every existing and future Ubuntu 10.10 user.
Apparently the default wallpaper introduces on August 27th, was not good enough for the final release of Ubuntu 10.10, and for most of the Ubuntu users. Therefore, Canonical replaced that ugly wallpaper with the one below.
This is the final and default wallpaper for the Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) release!
Among some of the interesting features that will be present in Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat), we can mention the upcoming GNOME 2.32 desktop environment, which brings lots and lots of improvements in many areas, such as Nautilus, Evolution, Empathy, Totem, or Rhythmbox.
Ubuntu 10.10 will feature a revamped installer, support for gestures with multi-touch, a new user interface for the Netbook edition, and a new font.
Ubuntu 10.10 will be powered by Linux kernel 2.6.35. Applications such as Oracle's OpenOffice.org 3.2 office suite, Mozilla's Firefox 3.6 web browser, Transmission 2 torrent downloader, Pidgin 2.7 instant messenger, Mozilla Thunderbird 3.1 e-mail client and The GIMP 2.6.10 image editor (some available only from the default software repositories) will also be present in the final version.
Don't forget to visit our website next Thursday (September 30th) for a detailed report on the Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) RC (Release Candidate) release, where we will unveil more of Maverick's new features!
