We tried Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 Final Beta

After yesterday's release of Ubuntu 17.04 Final Beta, I decided to try the new (second beta) Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 that was released with the new GNOME 3.24 interface.

The final release of Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 to be released on 13 April will be released with the GNOME 3.24 desktop environment. Although I am not a friend of Ubundoids I decided to try the new beta, as GNOME 3.24 brings many attractive features. Among them is Night Light.

This particular feature could not be missing from Ubuntu. The Creators Update, το iOS της Apple και το Android της Google διαθέτουν την συγκεκριμένη λειτουργία που μπορεί να μειώσει αυτόματα την ποσότητα του μπλε φωτός που εκπέμπεται τις οθόνες των laptop οθόνες, τις οθόνες των υπολογιστών και των οθονών τηλεφώνου κατά τη διάρκεια της νύχτας.
In GNOME 3.24, developers decided to add a blue light filter and named Night Light.Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 Final Beta

We found that there is an updated application for the Calendar, but also the completely new application for recipes, GNOME Recipes for those who have cooking concerns…

Ωστόσο, ορισμένες από τις εφαρμογές που φέρνει το νέο Gnome έρχονται σε παλαιότερες εκδόσεις, λόγω κάποιων σφαλμάτων που δεν έχουν επιλυθεί κατά τη στιγμή της κυκλοφορίας. Έτσι έχουμε το διαχειριστή αρχείων Nautilus 3.20.4, το λογισμικό διαχείρισης πακέτων GNOME 3.22 με υποστήριξη Flatpak 0.8, το GNOME Terminal 3,22, το Evolution 3.22 και το File 3.22.

We expect that until the official release, all the above applications will be in the 3.24 version.

Among the notable changes that Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 final Beta brings, we can also mention the chrome-gnome-shell system assistant that is pre-installed. Tracker search indexing engine is now sandboxed. gnome-icon-theme and gconf are not installed by default and there is an experimental Wayland session.

“An experimental Wayland session is included, but it does not come as a default. If your computer supports open source graphics drivers and you want to try Wayland, log out, and select GNOME in Wayland from the tools menu under the import access and log in again.”

Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 final Beta comes with Linux kernel 4.10, Mesa 17.0.1 3D Graphics Library, systemd-resolved as default DNS resolver. The new operating system uses swap files instead of swap partitions, and comes with LibreOffice 5.3 installed after.
