10 is released I decided to take a look at the latest beta to see what the new release has to offer. Oddly enough, “Intrepid Ibex” feels more like a service pack to me than a new release.

10 reasons for switching to a different Linux distribution
TechRepublic, KY
But I switched because I encountered too many occasions where the yum package manager rendered a system nearly useless. User error? Could have been. #3: Your distribution makes installing a certain package far too difficultRecently, I discovered an outstanding batch photo editor and needed to install it on both a Ubuntu and a Mandriva system. The Ubuntu installation was simple. The Mandriva installation? Never happened. Why? Simple: The application never made it into the Mandriva repositories, whereas it was in the Ubuntu repositories. Does that mean it will always be difficult (or impossible) to install the application on Mandriva? Probably not.

Resolution is 1280×1024.

The new version of the Microsoft Office alternative comes with three years worth of improvements, bug fixes and enhancements. Among the new features is the ability to read docx files generated by Microsoft Office so you don’t have to worry about not being able to open this recent document format. At the end of this month, my favorite Linux distribution, Ubuntu, is scheduled to release its latest version.

As I said earlier this year, if you still haven’t tried using Linux, the latest Ubuntu releases are the best way to get introduced into the open source operating system. Constant improvents. I tried the first versions of Open Office several years ago and I can tell you that the current one is a massive improvement.
