Ubuntu 10.04 has been released for a while. Have you upgraded it? If you have to ask me the reason for the upgrade, I can tell you 10.

1. Gnome 2.30.

Gnome 2.30 is the last major upgrade before the upgrade to 3.0. I'm sure you either like it very much or hate it very much. But for those Gnome fans, this will be the last Gnome to be seen, which is very memorable. I used 2.30. It feels good. Gnome 3.0 is even more worth looking forward to. I firmly believe that Gnome will be more successful than KDE.

2. HAL

Ubuntu 10.04 abolished HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) during startup, which made it a reality to shorten the startup time to 10 seconds. I personally tested that it took 10 seconds to go to the desktop. After HAL was removed, the recovery from the STANDBY state was faster.

3. Open-source Nvidia driver

For users who use Nvidia graphics cards, this time has really brought the gospel, and there is no need to worry about proprietary drivers. I have experienced these open-source drivers and they work just as well as proprietary drivers.

4. Social Network Integration

The link to the Design website can be immediately started from the main panel (top). This function is called MeMenu, which is built on the Gwibber framework (it is rebuilt on the new topcouch) meMenu supports multi-column views. You can monitor multiple social websites at the same time.

5. Ubuntu One music store

Ubuntu has a built-in Rythmbox music player. the Ubuntu One music store can access thousands of songs in real time, greatly enhancing the functions of the Ubuntu software center so that you can directly purchase commercial software from the desktop, even better, the music you bought is synchronized with the Ubuntu One account you registered on different computers at any time. Be careful, iTunes!

6. Cloud computing

Cloud computing is a buzzword. Will Cloud computing take over the computer world? Only time can prove everything, but in Ubuntu 10.04, at least it makes the cloud computing experience easier, ubuntu enterprise cloud installer supports automatic discovery of all UEC components (even if the Controller and Walrus are not on the same server), which is indeed a huge step forward for cloud computing.

7. KDE 4.4

Ubuntu 10.04 is the first LTS release that contains the KDE 4 desktop. It is precisely KDE 4.4.2. This version is very stable. If you are still waiting for a truly available KDE version, in this version, you no longer need to adjust it frequently, and the overall visual effect is more comfortable.

8. Ubuntu One iPhone application

Canonical released some mobile device applications, One of which is Ubuntu One for iPhone, so that you can keep files synchronized between PCs and mobile devices, this is a paid service (Ubuntu One registered users can try for 30 days ).

9. iPhone support

Ubuntu 10.04 has built-in support for the iPhone, allowing drag-and-drop operations in Rhythmbox without the need for hacking. Now you, your iPhone, Ubuntu, and Rhythmbox can be dragged as needed, enjoy your music!

10. Improved sound control

Before 10.04, Ubuntu was always criticized for its sound control. At that time, you could only control the volume from the taskbar. Now, you can control the volume and the input/output devices, all hardware is placed in a friendly location. Unlike the previous versions, the pulse audio has been improved a lot. The pulse audio has not been solved in recent versions. Now the problem is well solved and users will not need to improve it any more.
