Ubuntu VPS Hosting
Times of the Internet
Picking the right operating system isn’t done by an universal rule it always depends on several factors. There are different types of services you may want to run on your VPS and each one of them will have is own unique set of requirements towards the environment. If you want to use a Linux distribution to do the job Ubuntu can be a great choice in many cases. It’s light stable and popular. While the last part may not sound like an obvious advantage it’s important to consider because more popularity often means better support through community development and such. As most other Linux distributions Ubuntu is completely free so you won’t have to worry about licensing issues. You can find a lot of free pieces of software which had proven their worth throughout time as well and the entire operating system is surrounded by this idea of freedom of choice and user control over the system’s functionality.

There were 270 blueprints that needed to be discussed during the summit like the new professional look of Plymouth (an application that takes care of the graphical boot animation) for Karmic Koala which will not become reality very soon. However some of the ideas discussed at UDS will be implemented in the next version of the Ubuntu operating system due for release in late ctober 2009. ne of these was the “grub2-as-default” discussion and Colin Watson had the pleasure to announce last night that GRUB 2 would definitely be the default boot loader in Ubuntu 9.

Judgement Day: Studio Dave Tests Ubuntu Studio 9.04
Linux Journal
I’ve already chronicled my recent experience with Ubuntu 8. 10 (Intrepid Ibex). Given the overall hassles I encountered then you might wonder why I returned to any variety of Ubuntu. Well the most recent Ubuntu Studio is based on the latest Ubuntu 9. 04 (the Jaunty Jackalope) with a tested realtime kernel so I thought it might be a good time to revisit the system.
