Other cool stuff - unlike in 12.04 LTS you don't seem to have to install advanced media codec packages in 16.04, they seem all packaged in from what I can tell. Furthermore 16.04 doesn't seem you to require to fuss around with fstab to correctly mount drives, the standard "Disks" program offers a graphical interface to mount drives on startup. Samba also auto-installs when you say you want to share a drive in a Windows environment. Cool stuff.
So when it becomes generally available, I'd still wait a few weeks if you want to make sure it's rock solid - but I'd definitely totally recommend it. For Linux newbies it is most definitely a much more user friendly package. Can't comment on 14.04 because I jumped straight to 16.04 to 12.04. ...pablo Server: Virtual Machine (on VMware Player) running Ubuntu 12.04 + LMS 7.7.5 System: SB Touch --optical->- Benchmark DAC2HGC --AnalysisPlus Oval Copper XLR->- NAD M22 Power Amp --AnalysisPlus Black Mesh Oval->- Totem Element Fire Other Rooms: 2x SB Boom; 1x SB Radio; 1x SB Classic-> NAD D7050 -> Totem DreamCatcher + Velodyne Minivee Sub Computer audio: workstation --USB->- audioengine D1 -> Grado PS500e/Shure 1540 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105350 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
