- | In many ways, Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.10 is a bold statement because it introduces almost nothing new of note. This tends to indicate that this whole developmental cycle will also not introduce much that is new. The message this sends is that Ubuntu Cinnamon is pretty much what it's developers and users want these days and that the most important thing is not breaking it by making big changes. | + | In many ways, Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.10 is a bold statement because it introduces almost nothing new of note.

+ | Installation | ||
+ | |||
+ | J’ai téléchargé le fichier ISO d’Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.10 à partir de la source officielle avec BitTorrent. Ensuite, j’ai fait une vérification de somme SHA256 en ligne de commande pour m’assurer que le fichier était bon. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Le téléchargement du fichier ISO d’Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.10 faisait 5,0 Go, ce qui signifie qu’elle est 200 Mo, ou 4 %, plus petite que la dernière ISO d’Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.04 LTS. Après avoir bien regardé, je crois savoir où au moins certaines de ces économies de place ont eu lieu. | ||
+ | |||
+ | J’ai démarré l’ISO pour la tester à partir d’une clé USB équipée de Ventoy 1.0.99. Ventoy rend les tests des distributions Linux très faciles. Il suffit de mettre les fichiers sur la clé et Ventoy fait tout le travail de son déballage et son exécution. | ||

Ubuntu Cinnamon does not seem to list any minimum system requirements but it is probably safe to assume that it is the same as Ubuntu and therefore that any relatively modern 64-bit system with at least a 2 GHz dual core processor and 4 GB of RAM will suffice. More RAM would be better, of course. | Ubuntu Cinnamon does not seem to list any minimum system requirements but it is probably safe to assume that it is the same as Ubuntu and therefore that any relatively modern 64-bit system with at least a 2 GHz dual core processor and 4 GB of RAM will suffice.

+ | |||
+ | Ubuntu Cinnamon ne semble pas lister d’exigences systèmes minimales, mais il est sans doute sûr de supposer que ce sont les mêmes que pour Ubuntu. Ainsi, tout système 64-bit relativement moderne avec au moins un processeur à double cœur et à 2 GHz et 4 Go de RAM sera suffisant. Bien entendu, plus de RAM serait mieux. | ||

+ | Cette version comporte très peu d’améliorations dont la plupart viennent de projets « en amont » plutôt que d’Ubuntu Cinnamon même. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Le seul composant de Cinnamon vraiment mis à niveau est CJS 6.2.0, qui comporte quelques liens vers javascript basés sur Mozilla pour la plateforme Cinnamon, qui utilise maintenant mozjs115. Cinnamon Screensaver 6.2.0 et Cinnamon Settings Daemon 6.2.0 reçoivent un nouveau numéro de version, mais sans modification. | ||

+ | Les nouveautés venant de projets en amont sont le noyau Linux 6.11 et le système d’initialisation systemd 256.4, ainsi que de nouvelles versions de quelques-unes des applications existantes. Le nouveau noyau Linux comprend la prise en charge du matériel récent. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Tout compte fait, ces changements sont minuscules pour cette nouvelle version et cela indique probablement un cycle de développement où « pas beaucoup de nouveau » sera introduit. | ||

- | Another thing that is "not new" in this release and yet still quite unwelcome is that the live session of Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.10 will not mount any drives, including USB drives. This was also present in the last release. This prevents using it as a rescue disk and also makes doing screenshots for reviews more complicated. For this review, this problem required uploading the screenshots to a cloud service as a .zip file, rather than simply taking them off on a USB stick. Is there any reason to lock out all drives in a live session? Not that I can think of. | + | **Another thing that is "not new" in this release and yet still quite unwelcome is that the live session of Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.10 will not mount any drives, including USB drives.

- | Since this release is code named " | + | Quelque chose d’autre dans cette version n’est « pas nouveau » et pourtant pas bienvenue du tout : la session Live d’Ubuntu Cinnamon 24.10 ne montera aucun disque, y compris les disques USB, comme dans la version prcédente. Cela rend impossible son utilisation comme disque de secours et rend plus compliquées les captures d’écran pour les critiques. Pour cette critique, ce problème a nécessité le téléversement des captures d’écran vers un service dans le nuage comme un fichier .zip, plutôt que de les copier tout simplement vers une clé USB. Y a-t-il une raison de verrouiller tous les disques lors d’une session Live ? Moi, je n’en vois pas. |

The Cinnamon desktop’s bottom panel still can be adjusted in size over quite a large range, allowing it to be made much narrower or wider with the icons on the panel resizing automatically to fit. The control for this is found under “preferences - panel” and it has a default size of 40 pixels. The menu continues to be adjustable in size as well, which is a nice option. | The Cinnamon desktop’s bottom panel still can be adjusted in size over quite a large range, allowing it to be made much narrower or wider with the icons on the panel resizing automatically to fit.

Based on the minimal changes introduced in this first new interim release, I expect that there will be very little new over this cycle, resulting in the next LTS just having a few updates and not much more. Since most Ubuntu Cinnamon users seem to like how it works right now and don’t see a need to change things, this is actually a good plan. I use Ubuntu Cinnamon as my main daily operating system and, I have to say, I love how well it works. | Based on the minimal changes introduced in this first new interim release, I expect that there will be very little new over this cycle, resulting in the next LTS just having a few updates and not much more.
