Ubuntu 21.10 is Available Now! Finally Brings the Much Awaited GNOME 40 With Ubuntu Twist
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Ubuntu 21.10 is the last non-LTS release before the next big LTS update. Codenamed, Impish Indri, Ubuntu 21.10 will be supported for **nine months until July 2022**.
|
||||
|
||||
Unless you want to try the latest and greatest features, you should stick to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and wait for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
|
||||
|
||||
Now that you can download and install Ubuntu 21.10 on your systems, let me highlight a few things about this update.
|
||||
|
||||
### Ubuntu 21.10 “Impish Indri”: What’s New?
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Ubuntu 21.10 comes baked with several significant changes. Some of the most impactful improvements include:
|
||||
|
||||
* New installer
|
||||
* Addition of GNOME 40
|
||||
* Ditching the mixed theme and opting for light/dark theming
|
||||
* Including Linux Kernel 5.13
|
||||
* Inclusion of PulseAudio 15 with Bluetooth LDAC support
|
||||
* Wayland session with Nvidia proprietary driver
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
GNOME 40 can be a refreshing change with Ubuntu but you can only tell that after you experience it. To give you a quick idea, here’s what you can expect with all the changes included in this release.
|
||||
|
||||
### Refreshed Installer
|
||||
|
||||
![][2]
|
||||
|
||||
While Ubuntu’s installer was easy to use and newbie-friendly, Canonical wants to take it up a notch by giving the installer a visual and technical overhaul.
|
||||
|
||||
The dev team utilizes Flutter to make the installer consistent across all other Ubuntu flavors and system configurations.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### GNOME 40
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Ubuntu’s desktop experience blends in with GNOME 40 without offering any confusing layouts. The dock remains and the horizontal activity overview works seamlessly with that.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, all the improvements in [GNOME 40][4] like core app updates, workspace changes, and more carry over to Ubuntu 21.10 with a few teaks from Canonical.
|
||||
|
||||
Personally, I didn’t like the workflow with GNOME 40, but you may want to take it up for a spin.
|
||||
|
||||
### Changes in Theme
|
||||
|
||||
![][5]
|
||||
|
||||
I like the improved color scheme that aims to blend in better with Canonical’s branding for Ubuntu.
|
||||
|
||||
However, the mixed (Standard) theme was a bit problematic when it came to being consistent with applications and overall theme selection.
|
||||
|
||||
Going forward with Ubuntu 21.10, you will only notice a dark and light theme while the light being the default choice out-of-the-box. If you’re curious, you can read our [past coverage to know more about this change][6].
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux Kernel 5.13
|
||||
|
||||
The addition of Linux Kernel 5.13 adds support for future Intel and AMD chips along with initial Apple M1 support.
|
||||
|
||||
You can explore more about [Linux Kernel 5.13][7] but overall, it should give you way better hardware compatibility.
|
||||
|
||||
### PulseAudio 15 With Bluetooth LDAC Support
|
||||
|
||||
Considering that more Bluetooth headphones now support LDAC, you get to utilize the capability when using Ubuntu 21.10 on your desktop.
|
||||
|
||||
Fret not, if you do not want to try a non-LTS release, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS will include the same improvement. So, you will have to be patient till next year to make use of that.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to that, PulseAudio 15 brings in a range of improvements, you can refer to its [official changelog to know more about that.][8]
|
||||
|
||||
### Wayland Session with NVIDIA Proprietary Driver
|
||||
|
||||
Now, even if you use the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, you will be able to switch to a Wayland session if you need it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Other Changes in Ubuntu 21.10
|
||||
|
||||
![][9]
|
||||
|
||||
Ubuntu 21.10 release brings in a host of quality changes to its cloud images, Raspberry Pi support, and security as well.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of those notable changes include:
|
||||
|
||||
* [Including Firefox as a Snap by default][10]
|
||||
* Package updates to LibreOffice, Thunderbird
|
||||
* Ubuntu server improvements
|
||||
* New PHP default to 8.0.8
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to explore all the technical details, you might want to refer to the [official release notes][11].
|
||||
|
||||
### Download and Upgrade to Ubuntu 21.10
|
||||
|
||||
You can opt for a fresh installation or [upgrade from Ubuntu][12] 21.04 to Ubuntu 21.10 using the software updater.
|
||||
|
||||
Do note that if you are using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, it is recommended to wait for the next LTS release, unless you know what you are doing.
