Kernel 6.8, GNOME 46, and more apps in Snap packages
The beta version of this year's Ubuntu LTS release is out, complete with a new, and automatable, installation program.
If you do a clean install, one of the first things you'll see is the new installation program. It offers some accessibility options right at the beginning, which is always good, and asks if you have a YAML file with which to customize the setup. Feed it the URL to your ready-rolled config and it will do the rest, which will be handy if you're deploying multiple machines. Also YAML-driven is the, which hits version 1.0 in this release.
This version defaults to a minimal installation, so if you want the extra applications which Ubuntu used to include as standard, such as LibreOffice, email, chat and media clients, you must choose the"extended selection." If you do, there are some changes: Thunderbird is now a Snap package, the Cheese webcam viewer has been replaced, and the GNOME Games compilation has gone. Even so, the Noble beta is a whopping 5.64GB download.
In theory, the newer kernel and drivers will mean that Noble performs better on newer hardware. Saying that, though, a full installation of the beta version takes about 11GB of disk space and a gig of RAM at idle. This is not an especially lightweight distro any more, and will need a capable PC to perform well. It defaults to a Wayland session, and we saw screen corruption issues in VirtualBox using the guest additions from Ubuntu's own repository.
