Full Circle Magazine FR

Since the last issue of Full Circle Magazine the following has taken place: Ubuntu Core on Nexus7 Jono Bacon writes about plans for the Ubuntu core on Nexus 7 project. Bacon pointed out very clearly: “This is not going to be a tablet Unity interface running on the 8/16GB Nexus 7, but instead will focus on getting the current Ubuntu Desktop running on the Nexus so that we can ensure pieces such as the kernel, power management and other related areas are working effectively on a tablet device.” Along with the project description, Bacon provides information for potential project contributors (testers and developers) and points out the UDS-R session schedule for getting Ubuntu core on Nexus 7. http://www.jonobacon.org/2012/10/26/ubuntu-core-on-the-nexus-7/ Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) end-of-life reached on October 28, 2012 An email to the ubuntu-announce mailing list confirms that the support period for Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) formally ended on October 28, 2012 and Ubuntu Security Notices will no longer included information or updated packages for Ubuntu 11.04. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2012-October/000165.html

Ubuntu Core sur Nexus7

Jono Bacon écrit sur des projets de noyau Ubuntu sur Nexus 7. Bacon a souligné très clairement: «Cela ne sera pas une interface Unity pour tablette tournant sur le Nexus 7 à 8/16GB, mais on va s'efforcer d'obtenir que le bureau actuel Ubuntu fonctionne sur le Nexus pour que nous puissions assurer que les couches telles que le noyau, la gestion de l'alimentation et d'autres domaines connexes fonctionnent efficacement sur une tablette.»

En plus de la description du projet, Bacon fournit des informations pour les contributeurs potentiels du projet (testeurs et développeurs) et révèle l'organisation des séances UDS-R pour avoir le noyau Ubuntu sur Nexus 7.
