 *Dopo circa un anno di collaborazione come suggeritore, dopo aver firmato il codice deontologico di Ubuntu, che adoro, e di tester e diffusore di Ubuntu Breeze prima, e subito dopo Beta Tester e diffusore di Dapper Drake 6.06, ora 6.06 LTS, mi decido, a presentarmi.

== Notizie Generali ==

=== Scott James Remnant a LugRadio ===
Agli ininizi della settimana, Scott durante la presentazione della versione di upstart 0.2.7, annunciò la sua presenza su LugRadio il lunedì: ''"seguite il prossimo episodio del programma: [[BR]] [http://www.lugradio.org/ LugRadio], che conterrà un'intervista su upstart con il vostro affezionato (se Jono si ricorderà di attaccare il mio microfono :p); questo avverrà il prossimo Lunedì."''
=== Scott James Remnant su Edgy+1 ===
Edgy non è stato ancora pubblicato ma gli utenti sono già impazienti di vedere Edgy+1. Scott di recente ha scherzato ed il suo scherzo ha colto nel segno sul suo blog con un post intitolato "Cosa mi aspetto di trovare in Edgy+1".
----------
= '''Tradurre da qui''' =
----------
Edgy has not even been released yet, but people are already itching for Edgy+1. Scott has been musing recently and that musing hit his blog, with a post titled "What I want to see in Edgy+1". The post is dedicated to looking at technologies that make communication easier, whether it between users or between hardware. Scott first talks about Telepathy, the new communications framework, and how it (and galago and farsight) will change the way users communicate with each other, as well as make it easy for application developers to include IM functions into their applications. Continuing on the communications front, Scott then talks about automatic network config with Avahi and Zeroconf, as well as easier bluetooth connections and better synchronization. You can read more at http://www.netsplit.com/blog/articles/2006/09/22/what-i-want-in-edgy-1

=== LTSP Hackfest ===

Members of the [http://ltsp.org LTSP project], and developers from several distributions, gathered in Clarkston, Michigan last weekend to plot the future of LTSP. Ubuntu was there to oversee the beginning of work related to merging the Ubuntu LTSP into mainline LTSP. Jorge Castro was there, and wrote about it for [http://news.linux.com/news/06/09/21/233234.shtml?tid=47 Linux.com].

== New Apps In Edgy ==

The Beta release of Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft) is almost upon us (it is scheduled for release on Sept 28th). As such, Matt Zimmerman has announced a freeze of "main" until that release. The current priorities for the beta release mostly revolve around bug fixing. You can read more about the Beta freeze at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2006-September/000196.html

This week has brought us, amongst others:
 * upstart 0.2.7
 * python 2.5
 * firefox 2.0b2
 * openoffice 2.0.4~rc2

A number of ichthux-* packages rolled into Edgy in the last week. These are packages for a Kubuntu-based project called Ichthux (http://www.ichthux.com) which is producing a set of default apps and artwork for the Christian user community. So far ichthux-meta, ichthux-default-settings, ichthux-emoticons, and ichthux-konqueror-shortcuts have been uploaded along with several Sword modules for various languages with more to come before the Edgy Universe Freeze. The Ichthux development team is composed of Ubuntu and Debian developers such as Raphaël Pinson (Kubuntu core dev), Jordan Mantha (MOTU), and Ben Armstrong (Debian Developer).

Readahead, a tool to speed up boot times by reading files into a cache, has recently been updated by Scott James Remnant. In order for readahead to be effective, it must be updated regularly. On a development release, this can be somewhat tricky, due to the number of changes made. Futher, several communities members playing with readahead discovered it ran better in the foreground during boot, rather than the background. Both of these changes, amongst others, can be found in readahead-list_0.20050517.0220. You can read more about the specific changes, including boot times, at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-September/020967.html

Martin Pitt has announced the general availability of packages with debug symbols, as part of the apt-get-debug symbols spec (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/apt-get-debug-symbols). Currently the packages are only available through Martin's people.ubuntu.com archive, but work is preceding apace on getting them into the Ubuntu archives. Further, work is also being done to pull in the debug packages automatically, via the new crash collection tool, apport. You can read more about Martin's work at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2006-September/000195.html

A common question users ask is why Ubuntu does not install NetworkManager, a new tool to control wireless and other networks, by default. NetworkManager was evaluated in the 6.06 development cycle and found lacking, although a fully comprehensive answer has never really been available. In a recent thread on ubuntu-devel asking this very question, Scott James Remnant laid out the various issues. You can read Scott's answer at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-September/020886.html

Daniel Holbach, between uploading new telepathy packages, found time to update the various PDA utilities.
pilot-link (0.12.1), gnome-pilot and gnome-pilot-conduits (both 2.0.14) have landed in Edgy. Daniel has also asked for testers of this new code, over at the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PDATesters/Hardware wiki page. You can read more about it at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-September/020880.html

The Telepathy team continued full steam ahead this week. Telepathy-inspector was updated to 0.3.4. Riccardo Setti also joined the team, uploading telepathy-gabble 0.3.6. Finally, the ever busy Scott James Remnant wrote a blog post about what he would like to see in Edgy+1. Featured prominently in the blog post was Telepathy. You can read Scott's post at http://www.netsplit.com/blog/articles/2006/09/22/what-i-want-in-edgy-1

The world of Edgy, was, as always, busy these week. These are only a small fraction of the changes that happened in the Edgy world. If you don't see something you think should have been covered (maybe something else Scott did?), we are always looking for new editors.

=== The Free Desktop Turns 10 ===

The free desktop is 10 years old this week as KDE celebrated its 10th birthday on Saturday 14th. In honour of the momentous anniversary your hard working Kubuntu developers all stayed at home to fix bugs in time for the Edgy release candidate. But in a warehouse somewhere in outer Bavaria the finest free software developers got together to party at the 10 years of Linux Desktop rave.

One of the keynote speakers was the Ubuntu Community Manager Jono Bacon who announced that Mark Shuttleworth was now the first Patron of KDE. This prestigious title shows an ongoing finantial and social commitment to KDE. Thanks to Mark for signing up to this new scheme.

=== OpenOffice 2.0.4 is out ===

The latest of the Open``Office releases is out. You can download it [http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.4/index.html now]. See [http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=26173&highlight= this forum post] for local installation instructions. Local installation means you do not have to be root during the installation and that you do not have to tweak / change / upgrade your Open``Office as it came with Ubuntu.

Linea 107: Linea 134:
Enterprise Storage Forum takes a look at The Wayback Machine (http://www.archive.org) and find Ubuntu under the hood:

''As for the software running the system, it's almost all open source. "Primarily now we're using the Ubuntu (www.ubuntu.com) release of Debian (www.debian.org) for our OS," says Berry. "It's very easy to manage and install. We also use Linux, which we've used for many years in different flavors. And we use Apache and things like Perl and PHP."''

''For the Archive, the decision to go with open source software was based on cost savings as well as experience.''

''"Obviously you don't pay the big licensing fees," says Berry. "But it also gives us a lot of openness and freedom, and the Archive is usually pushing some technical edge. So it's nice to have that flexibility, which we wouldn't necessarily have had with vendor software." ''

More tech details about the archive can be found at http://tinyurl.co.uk/rho1

CNET's Tom Merritt has recorded a video introduction to Ubuntu. You can watch it http://tinyurl.co.uk/gi50

Userful Corporation and Canonical are working together to deliver even more value to organizations that deploy Ubuntu:

''"Our virtualized X-server enables a single Ubuntu PC equipped with extra video cards to support up to 10 monitors, USB keyboards, and users simultaneously," says Tim Griffin, President of Userful. "Ubuntu with Userful's 'Multiplier' offers dramatic hardware and software savings, literally offering organizations ten Linux workstations for what they would otherwise spend on just a single Windows computer with commercial office and graphics software."''

''Userful's Multiplier software is ideally suited for organizations that wish to deploy large numbers of workstations for users without deploying a large number of computers. By sharing the processing power and resources of modern, often overpowered PCs with up to nine additional users, Userful and Ubuntu can reduce IT management, electrical and cooling costs by more than fifty percent per workstation.''

''"By making Userful's Multiplier available on Ubuntu, we are adding significantly to the potential savings to be made by our customers," commented Malcolm Yates, ISV and Partner Manager at Canonical. "This unique solution is suitable for schools, small businesses and developing markets, where computing resources tend to be scarce."''

There's more at http://opensource.sys-con.com/read/274522.htm

(Full Disclosure: Ubuntu Weekly New's Chief Editor, Corey Burger, works for Userful and fought to exclude this story due to conflict of interest. He was overruled.)

ITWeek.co.uk and WhatPC.co.uk reporter Barry Shilliday has discussed two alternative methods of installing extra software on Ubuntu, and also discussed the Kubuntu desktop alternative.

''In this article, we expand on a previous article that examined the update of a fresh Ubuntu Dapper Drake installation to make it more desktop and multimedia-friendly, by looking at the automated options.''

''In addition, we take a closer look at Ubuntu’s KDE offspring, Kubuntu.''

While we appreciate the discussion, we would like to advise that use of EasyUbuntu and Automatix are generally discouraged.

The Daily Cup of Tech takes a look at the involved and lengthy Ubuntu installation process. You can read it all at http://www.dailycupoftech.com/?page_id=47

This week brings two book reviews. The first is of the Apress book, Beginning Ubuntu Linux. The review notes several times that the this book is for new Ubuntu and Linux users and overall gives the book a very favourable review. You can read more at http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/book_review_beginning_ubuntu

The second review is of the Official Ubuntu Book. This time by Ars``Geek, again giving high reviews and noting the book is very useful for new Ubuntu and Linux users. In their words:

''"So should you go out and buy this book? If you’re a Linux/Ubuntu expert then you can probably forgo it. Anyone else who’s interested in Ubuntu either as a primary operating system, or as a means to learn a lot more about Linux should pick this up. It’s a great reference and has everything you’ll need from install to working productively in one easy place. It also comes with the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS DVD, saving the new user from trying to download and burn a copy – a time saver in the least."''

You can read more at http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=625

(Time for another full disclosure. The Chief Editor of the Ubuntu Weekly News, Corey Burger, is one of the primary authors of the Official Ubuntu Book.)

An interview with one of the Ubuntu developers, Matt Zimmerman, featured on [http://www.osdir.com/Article9414.phtml OSDir]. The interview topics ranges from FOSS to Ubuntu and to Zimmerman's personal life. The full text of this and previous interviews can be found [http://behindubuntu.org/interviews/MattZimmerman/ at "behindubuntu"].

[http://os.newsforge.com/os/06/10/06/152232.shtml?tid=16 Newsforge] reported that Nexenta, an open source operating system, is combining the Open Solaris kernel with GNU utilities and Ubuntu in its alpha 5 release.

[http://www.technewsworld.com/story/53513.html Technewsworld] has an article on Ubuntu, where Ubuntu is reported to be similar to the Mac OS X of Linux according to IT-Harvest Chief Research Analyst Richard Stiennon, who also "...downplayed Ubuntu's support for Sun hardware, [saying] it would take a bigger player, such as HP... or Dell... to propel Ubuntu further into the business world, where it potentially could function as leverage against incumbent Red Hat."

== Feature Of The Week ==

For many end users simply unplugging a usb thumbdrive is the norm. What many, however, do not know is that this can be damaging to the data. Edgy now has a small unobtrusive warning popup that informs the user if the data did not sync before unplugging usb. This will prevent many usb related data losses.

== Feature of the Week: Elinks ==

Elinks is a feature-rich text mode web browser. It can render both frames and tables and is highly customizable.

Ever got a broken X and didn't know what to do next? Elinks is easy enough for an average user to browse ubuntuforums.org without having X running to find answers and recover from such problems.

=== Infamous Bugs ===

=== How to Help Kill A Bug that Annoys you. ===

There are times when an application does not work as expected. In some cases this is a bug.
Report them, this makes your software better.

==== When to find bugs ====

The best time to find a bug is early in the programs lifecycle as it is being prepared for the next release, not right at the start but the first snapshot that is taken of the development cycle. You should look at the critical applications in your distro that you use and check they work during the beta cycles. This allows developers iron out the issues before the next release. With the exception of the LTS software we don't expect to see problems resolved after a release is issued, unless it is a security issue. (More information here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases )

==== How to report them =====

The report should be done as soon as the program terminates incorrectly.

What you need to report.

Information about what you as the user were doing or trying to do before the error occured. What the expected behaviour was, what the actual behaviour of the program was. What error messages if any occured, all of them is a good starting point.

To report bugs on Ubuntu, get an account on http://launchpad.net, find the package in the version of ubuntu you have and share the information you have. It is better to report half correctly and let someone else come along and confirm it.

Comments can be added after the initial edit, in fact you may be asked for more detail after you report.

Have a look at a few bugs on launchpad to get a feeling for what is expected.

==== What _Not_ to do. ====

Report "Program X is broken", this is not a fault report, it is in fact a "faulty bug report", i.e. it is useless. It lacks the essential ingredient, appropoitate information.

It also comes with the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS DVD, saving the new user from trying to download and burn a copy – a time saver in the least."

[http://os.newsforge.com/os/06/10/06/152232.shtml?tid=16 Newsforge] reported that Nexenta, an open source operating system, is combining the Open Solaris kernel with GNU utilities and Ubuntu in its alpha 5 release.

[http://www.technewsworld.com/story/53513.html Technewsworld] has an article on Ubuntu, where Ubuntu is reported to be similar to the Mac OS X of Linux according to IT-Harvest Chief Research Analyst Richard Stiennon, who also "...downplayed Ubuntu's support for Sun hardware, [saying] it would take a bigger player, such as HP... or Dell... to propel Ubuntu further into the business world, where it potentially could function as leverage against incumbent Red Hat."

Infamous Bugs

How to Help Kill A Bug that Annoys you.

There are times when an application does not work as expected. In some cases this is a bug. Report them, this makes your software better.

When to find bugs

The best time to find a bug is early in the programs lifecycle as it is being prepared for the next release, not right at the start but the first snapshot that is taken of the development cycle. You should look at the critical applications in your distro that you use and check they work during the beta cycles. This allows developers iron out the issues before the next release. With the exception of the LTS software we don't expect to see problems resolved after a release is issued, unless it is a security issue. (More information here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases )

==== How to report them =====

The report should be done as soon as the program terminates incorrectly.

What you need to report.

Information about what you as the user were doing or trying to do before the error occured. What the expected behaviour was, what the actual behaviour of the program was. What error messages if any occured, all of them is a good starting point.

To report bugs on Ubuntu, get an account on http://launchpad.net, find the package in the version of ubuntu you have and share the information you have. It is better to report half correctly and let someone else come along and confirm it.

Comments can be added after the initial edit, in fact you may be asked for more detail after you report.

Have a look at a few bugs on launchpad to get a feeling for what is expected.

What _Not_ to do.

Report "Program X is broken", this is not a fault report, it is in fact a "faulty bug report", i.e. it is useless. It lacks the essential ingredient, appropoitate information.
