What's new with Ubuntu 11:10 Alpha 1?

The main one though not the first one is the inclusion of the GNOME desktop environment 3, so that for users who tertari try to conduct their testing. But remember, this is a development release and not everything works as expected.

Ubuntu 11:10 (Oneiric Ocelot) is now powered by the Linux kernel 2.6.39, which brought a lot of drivers and support for new hardware component.

One thing that might explain even though it only our expectations, why Gnome 3 not yet supplied with the latest release of Ubuntu 11:04 is the difference of opinion between the Gnome development team with the related reduction Canonical support the use of visual effects (3D effect) on the Gnome Shell. This has sparked Canonical which is one of the contributors Gnome to develop a shell (interface) itself to Ubuntu which we know as Unity, which still allows the use of 3D visual effects.

Gnome Addiction Shell with a lethal package Mutter visual effects make Canonical reluctant to immediately implement the Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 11:04 until obtainment means for eliminating packet Mutter and Gnome Shell safely (maybe) of Gnome 3. For information, we can not install Gnome 3 with Gnome on Ubuntu 11:04 shells unless we are willing to lose Unity Shell.

How about 11:10 Ubuntu 's this? which is said to be packaged with Gnome 3?. You do not be mistaken, Canonical will memaket 11:10 Ubuntu with Gnome 3 but not with Gnome shells. That means when we use the graphical tools do not support 3D (OpenGL) Ubuntu does not provide an option sessions "Ubuntu Classic" with the Gnome desktop (like in Ubuntu 11:04), but leads us to go with a desktop kesesi Unity 2D . The following image is a 2D Unity desktop on Ubuntu 11:10 Alpha 1
