Canonical has released today, as expected, the final Beta of the upcoming Ubuntu 17.04 Zesty Zapus operating system, released on April 13 in all opt-in flavors, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME, etc.
The Final Beta is the last step in the Ubuntu 17.04 Zesty Zapus development cycle, and it gives us a bit of an idea of what to expect from the upcoming functional system. 
The final Beta Freeze stage went into effect on Monday, March 20th and will run until the final stage version, which means that what you'll see in the final beta if you download it is what will be released on April 13th. No new features will be added, but there will certainly be improvements to the existing ones.
As you may already know, Ubuntu 17.04 "Wears" the Linux kernel 4.10, in version 4.10.5.
Αυτό σημαίνει ότι το μεγαλύτερο μέρος των open-source drivers γραφικών που συμπεριλαμβάνονται στον πυρήνα του Linux 4.10 έχουν βελτιωθεί. Να αναφέρουμε επίσης ότι το Ubuntu 17.04 έρχεται με το νεότερο Mesa 17,0 3D Graphics Library, και ότι το Μέσα 17.0.1 είναι ήδη available in the final Beta.
Unfortunately, Ubuntu 17.04 Final Beta still uses the old version of X.Org Server 1.18.4 as a display server. We hope that the Ubuntu developers will finish testing and manage to upgrade to the new X.Org Server 1,19 to the final version.
Another interesting change that we will see from this version is the use of a swap file instead of a swap partition when installing Ubuntu 17.04. Of course, this will not apply to users upgrading from Ubuntu 16.10. On the networking side, it looks like the default DNS resolver is now done through systemd.
If you use prints, Ubuntu 17.04 final Beta supports many more drivers: Apple AirPrint and IPP Everywhere all out-of-the-box printers. Among the updated applications are LibreOffice 5.3, QEMU 2.8, libvirt 2.5, DPDK 16.11.1, and OpenVPN 2.4, MPV, GIMP, VirtualBox, Thunderbird, Firefox, Synaptic, etc. For the first time in many years GNOME stack comes to the most recent version, in this case it is GNOME 3.24.
