      Well

      It is: "Long Term Support" not "Long Term Stable"


      From the Karmic ( > Re: Karmic Release Schedule, Plans, KDE 4.3 - FINAL):

      Should I Stay or Should I Upgrade

      > Topic: kubuntu 9.04 w/kde 4.3.2 or Karmic 9.10 when it comes out?
      > Topic: IMPORTANT suggestion for new users, don't rush the upgrade to Karmic.


      ... and the older users still remember that there was K/X/Ubuntu 6.06 not 6.04.

        Yet another reason to wait until Saturday or Sunday.

          ... and before installation/upgrade it is very useful to read the release notes.


          > LucidLynx ReleaseNotes:
          These release notes document known issues with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and its variants.
          ....
          • Performance regressions with ext4 under certain workloads
          • Hibernation may be unavailable with automatic partitioning
          • I/O error after CD is ejected at end of install
          • Installer crash with a separate /home partition
          • Partition alignment changes may break some systems
          • Desktop installer sometimes crashes on startup
          • etc...

              Huh!

              when installing Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a system with another operating system present, GRUB2 will not show the other operating system once installed for the dual/multi-boot system. It doesn't matter whether the other operating system is Microsoft Windows or another Linux installation, but the GRUB2 boot-loader doesn't offer you the option to boot that OS, just Ubuntu
              That was the problem I had with Grub 2 when I installed 9.10! So, they fixed it for Lucid Beta (it worked perfectly on my rig), and now they've broken it again? Geeeeeeeeeeez!

                I'm with Snowhog on this one. !!!


                EDIT: Looks as though Kubuntu is a go regardless. The main site has been partially updated to reflect as such and the link Rog supplied to the actual Download page has updated ISO images reflecting Final Release of LTS. Downloading now! As I said... I CAN'T WAIT!!

                  Sad, probably because they could use a few more volunteer testers.

                      Booting and installing - no problems. The Alternate installation media is detecting the other installations (MS Windows, Karmic, ...) without problems.

                      After the installation there is a new clean Kubuntu 10.04 installation waiting to be tuned...


                      Hmm - the Karmic installation is telling that there is an upgrade available.



                      Maybe later...

                        Burned my LiveCDs and labeled. Yea! Doing a fresh install on the laptop soon. Debating on doing away with my current /home partition and migrating it over to EXT4. Hmmmm. Decisions, decisions, decisions.

                          I am running it two of my laptops (the third is too old to care). But the AMD desktop crashes on logout. Good thing I upgraded a test partition (a clone of the "production" one), so I'll wait until this is fixed.

                            At today's tech board meeting they approved
                            https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/UpdatesPolicy - This gives as a chance to
                            move point releases out of kubuntu-ppa and into the archive once things are
                            tested.

                            This is blocked on tech board approval. I did get a chance to discuss to discuss this with on board member at UDS. I think we can get it moving soon.

                              Now that we've got permission from the Ubuntu TechBoard to ship new KDE
                              versions in existing releases I've uploaded KDE SC 4.4.5 (and kdepim/kdepim-
                              runtime 4.4.8 ) to lucid-proposed...
                              (and it seems (?) to be in the Lucid updates now)

                              If we can get this tested and moved to lucid-updates it will be the KDE SC we
                              ship in 10.04.2 (and if this goes well, we'll do Maverick and 4.5.4/PIM 4.4.8
