Glenn Cady has announced the release of Ultimate Edition 2.8, an Ubuntu-based distribution on a DVD with extra applications, media codecs and hardware drivers: "Ultimate
Edition 2.8 was built off Ubuntu 10.10. All packages upgraded. The
software you have come to love with previous editions of Ultimate
Edition have been also pre-installed along with 12 new ones. At time of
build Cinelerra and Wine-Doors were broken and did not make the cut. I
also want to apologise for the delay and at the same time thank my admin
for the delay of the Ultimate Edition 2.8 s release. Many issues have
been squashed in 2.8 because of the delay. Cowboy's handiwork at the
theme has won the poll and will be deemed 'Cowboy Blue'. Don't like the
blue theme? There are 107 themes to choose from, it does not have to be
dark. I have included a now enhanced, color and font selectable Conky
script I wrote that will generate as per computer." Here is the brief release announcement. Download (MD5) the live DVD images from here: ultimate-edition-2.8-x86.iso (2,460MB), ultimate-edition-2.8-x64.iso (2,590MB).Ultimate Edition 2.8 "Gamers"
Glenn Cady has announced the release of Ultimate Edition 2.8 "Gamers", an Ubuntu-based live DVD featuring some 48 games: "Ultimate
Edition 2.8 Gamers is unlike any other gamer's edition built in the
past. Besides the updates, many tools have been ripped out of Ultimate
Edition 2.8, prior to the build to maximize room for additional games.
In Ultimate Edition 2.8 Gamers you will not find OpenOffice.org, we are
here to play games right? This does not mean you will not have a media
player, just the very basics and a vast quantity of high-quality games.
The newest PlayOnLinux is also included to allow installation of Windows
games. What games have been pre-installed? Urban Terror, Armagetron
Advanced, Gunroar, Hedgewars, Kobo Deluxe, Pingus, BZFlag, Chromium
B.S.U., Grid Wars 2... A new repository filled to the hilt with games
has also been pre-added to allow the end user to install additional
games." The release announcement. Download (MD5): ultimate-edition-2.8-gamers-x86.iso (4,012MB), ultimate-edition-2.8-gamers-x64.iso (4,021MB).Ultimate Edition 2.8 "Lite"
Glenn Cady has announced the release of Ultimate 2.8 "Lite", an Ubuntu-based distribution featuring the LXDE desktop and designed for deployment on low-resource computers: "As
promised, have the latest and the last release in the 2.8 series of
Ultimate Edition. Ultimate Edition 2.8 'Lite' is dedicated to those with
low system resources; it is also lightning-fast on machines that have
the resources. There are no bells and whistles here, no office suite, no
Compiz - just the pure essentials. It was built off Lubuntu 10.10,
updated and upgraded, which is based on the LXDE desktop environment.
Many applications were ripped from the operating system before I even
started to build. This is the first time a light edition has been
released from us; not that it has not been asked for by many for some
time. Ultimate Edition 2.8 'Lite' will fit on a CD." Here is the complete release announcement. Download: ultimate-edition-2.8-lite-x86.iso (552MB, MD5).
