Canonical has introduced characteristic plans for Ubuntu 24.10 which can release in mid-October this 12 months. As the primary unencumber since Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, the crew has more room to innovate and thatโ€™s precisely what theyโ€™re planning on doing with Wayland make stronger by means of default for Nvidia customers and expanded TPM-backed Full Disk Encryption (FDE) make stronger.

The very first thing that Canonical needs to do is to organize the groundwork for increasing TPM-backed FDE by means of re-enabling detailed comments from instrument configuration problems which might be combating other people from the use of the characteristic. By addressing the problems preventing other people from the use of this selection, extra other people must get make stronger and added safety.

Next, the corporate stated it is going to be redesigning the welcome wizard in order that itโ€™s extra in keeping with the installer. This isnโ€™t a large alternate as each and every consumer best wishes to head thru this procedure as soon as consistent with set up however it must make the revel in higher for customers, particularly the ones the use of Ubuntu for the primary time.

Another cool alternate on this replace is that it is going to include GNOME 47, which, it was once introduced the day gone by, will land on September 18. For those that have Nvidia graphics playing cards, Canonical may be aiming to allow Wayland by means of default.

The corporate up to now made up our minds to not transfer to Wayland for Nvidia customers as a result of there have been recognized problems because of the heavy use of Ubuntu in AI/ML, VFX, and different industries. By enabling it in Ubuntu 24.10, Canonical hopes to find and fasten insects by the point Ubuntu 26.04 LTS is introduced in two years.

In its announcement, Canonical additionally discussed that it might be in search of to develop the Ubuntu Desktop crew by means of a minimum of 50% over the following 12 months. It will get started recruiting in simply the following couple of weeks in any respect ranges of seniority. It stated that the way forward for Linux at the desktop is shiny and that in the event youโ€™re curious about running on Ubuntu then you’ll be able to touch and practice for the open positions.

Another thrilling point out was once that of Ubuntu Core Desktop, which an immutable model of Ubuntu very similar to Fedora Silverblue. Last month, I wrote an Editorial for Neowin arguing that folks must make a selection Fedora Silverblue 40 over Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on account of all of the further safety advantages it brings; itโ€™s nice to look that Canonical may be running on this path.
