Many thanks for your donations. Your help and support is greatly appreciated. It empowers us of course but it’s also a huge boost in confidence and motivation. Many thanks to all of you who help our project.
Linux Mint 18.3 BETA

The BETA for the Cinnamon and the MATE editions will be released this week.
We hope you’ll enjoy them and we look forward to receiving your feedback. We’ll announce their official release in a couple of days.
Last minute changes
Some improvements got into Linux Mint 18.3 at the last minute. These include:
  • Better out of the box support for spell-checking and synonyms in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese and Russian.
  • Easy installation of Skype, Google Earth and WhatsApp in the Software Manager
  • In MATE’s mintmenu: Recently used apps
There are also a couple of changes in Xfce and KDE, but it’s a bit too early to report on them (we’ll release these editions after Cinnamon and MATE).
Read the Docs
We’re happy to announce we’ll be porting our documentation to a promising service called “Read the Docs“.
Our Linux Mint User Guide helped us for years. It was updated continuously and translated in more than 20 languages. It’s been a great resources for new users. Although the LibreOffice format in which it was written made it easy for anyone to review it or translate it, it’s also become an issue which made its maintenance and development harder than it should have been. Changes are hard to keep track of and the various documents available in each different language are becoming more and more different.
If we were to rewrite a paragraph, that effort would only benefit one language in the short term, and likely only a select few long term.
The structure of the user guide is also problematic. It’s a big document which covers many different aspects. It tries to do to much, and doesn’t necessarily do it very well. It goes too much in the details for some of the topics but also lacks important information on others.
During the Linux Mint 19 development cycle we’ll write small guides, each dedicated to their own topic. In particular, we’ll write:
  • An installation guide
  • A developer guide
  • A troubleshooting/bug-reporting guide
  • A getting-started guide with an overview of the Mint project and its community
Read the Docs was chosen primarily because it separates content and layout and because it allows us to simply write content and have it automatically translated, built and hosted into documentation you can read online (in HTML) or offline (in PDF/ePUB).
The documentation will be written in reStructuredText (RST) and version-controlled on Github. We’ll be using Gettext to generate translations templates which will be imported into Launchpad. In other words, we’ll have the documentation written and translated the same way we already write and translate our software projects. Read the Docs will then continuously update the hosted documentation. Whenever it changes, it will automatically be rebuilt.
Note: Flatpak is already using Read the Docs. Don’t hesitate to visit http://flatpak.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ to see how it looks. Their documentation is available in English, French and Spanish. We’ll need some time to write our guides, but from experience and knowing how amazing the translation teams are on Launchpad (the pace at which they translate our code is quite humbling… in a matter of days we’re usually ready to ship any new features, translated in all major languages), we’re quite confident we’ll have documentation in more than 20 languages pretty fast.

Ubuntu Spotted Flying Over the Antarctic During a NASA Mission

The Ubuntu community has made a habit of spotting their favorite operating system in the most unexpected places. The Linux distribution built by Canonical has been observed “flying” over an Antarctic region, during a NASA mission.

 The Ubuntu Linux distro has been spotted before in numerous weird places, like billboards and a Nintendo kiosk at Best Buy, to name just a couple. Now, a user has posted on Reddit a video made by NASA during the Operation IceBridge, which takes place over the Ross Sea.

 It looks like the scientists are using Ubuntu for various “scientific” purposes, but Ubuntu developer Michal Hall managed to identify a number of other desktops in the video, like KDE, some GNOME panels, and even a QtCreator window.

 "After an early morning weather briefing and takeoff from the sea ice runway at the National Science Foundation's McMurdo Station, the NASA P-3 flew a survey that took researchers across the Ross Sea basin and back. The purpose of this mission was to set up a pair of parallel lines known as a flux gate that scientists can use to study how ice moves out through the Ross Sea," says NASA in the video description.

 If you have seen Ubuntu in an interesting or funny location, please make sure to leave a comment. Enjoy the video!

History of GoBang Project
The idea for GoBang came about in November 2012. At the beginning system ISO was published only in one language (Polish) and pointing to a small group of students, studying at the "Administration of the Operating Systems ". As the education program do not provide deeper discussions about the alternative system solutions from the family of operating systems Linux and Unix and most of the issues are based on the Microsoft products, I decided to take care of this problem and start promoting solutions based on codes such as open end free source. The idea is to present a different point of view on the operating systems subject.
"GoBang Project" runs on mixed licenses. The aim is to encourage and help customers to adopt alternative solutions. The GoBang OS includes solutions borrowed from various distributions such as Linux, Unix and also some with the closed source code. The code I have written is a part of GoBang OS and is always licensed by GPLv3.
The project aims to promote a wide culture of Open Source communities dealing with the code, image, sound, art , etc. which stands behind the Open and Free idea.
At the present moment "GoBang Project" is run by me, all costs associated with it I cover myself. As a person not employed I spend my free time to develop and find low-cost solutions to reach customers. GoBang OS does not have commercial target it will always be free.
If you would like to support the development by providing grants, I invite you to read the story of my son's unfortunate accident. Grants can be addressed for his recovery foundation as a 1% of your income tax refund. Founds collected there will be forwarded for my son's further rehabilitation.
Thank you to all those who contribute to the development and promotion of GoBang.

Ultimate Edition 4.2

Ultimate Edition 4.2

 
 

Ultimate Edition 4.2?

    What is Ultimate Edition 4.2?  Ultimate Edition 4.2 was built from the ground up debootstrapped from the Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Thar tree using Tmosb (TheeMahn’s Operating System Builder) which is also included in this release.  This release is a Long Term Supported (LTS) release, supported until the year 2019.  This release is most certainly worthy of the Ultimate Edition title.  What makes this Operating System different then any other Operating System on the entire planet?  The entire Mate 1.8 repository was first Repostormed another world changing application I am developing.  I have told the world it was coming.  I have included many, many tools I am constructing that reside under the hood of virtually all Ultimate Edition releases, most newer and upgraded. This Operating System while it did have issues during construction have been crushed and what remains is a flawless operating environment.
    When time permits, I will come back and update this page with 32 bit release as well as non lite based O/S (Gnome 3+).  I can assure you with the highest regards; try it you will not be disappointed.  Blood, sweat and many CPU cycles were involved in the release of this Operating System.  Even when I was sleeping it was chewing CPU cycles to ensure the end result of perfection.  While the download is huge and may put you in frame of mind is not Lite. The first thing I heard out of one of my beta testers, was how snappy it was.  Many applications are included, however do not use resources until you use them.  If you would like to learn how I build Ultimate Edition Linux, or you would like to learn how to build your own Linux incarnation. I wrote a huge article you can read here.
Enjoy,
TheeMahn

The storm is over…

by on Jul.01, 2014, under Linux, Programming, Ubuntu, Ultimate Edition
My employer has given me off until July 7th, expect some large changes coming soon to a server near you. The past week or so I have been doing some heavy coding in Repostorm. I’m done programming for sometime to come. Repostorm has managed to squash a ton of errors and warnings in the Mate Desktop Environment(DE). I will now begin construction of the final release of Ultimate Edition 4.2 Lite based on the Repostormed debs. Just to give you some perspective on what difference this will make in final production. In any Operating System that uses Mate 1.8 the following is the session result of running repostorm –analyze on a virgin Mate 1.8 DE entire Repository:
Repostorm 1.8.4 is generating a full report.
SESSION RESULTS
Error(s): 248 | Warning(s): 4546 | Info: 0
Writing permanent logs.
Execution Time: 11m43s
After Repostorm has repaired issues in Mate DE:
Repostorm 1.8.4 is generating a full report.
SESSION RESULTS
Error(s): 4 | Warning(s): 31 | Info: 0
Writing permanent logs.
Execution Time: 27s
I’m providing the log files for your viewing pleasure:
Before and After the storm has settled.
I have had tons of requests to do the same to XFCE, Cinnamon, etc. Let’s face it time is never on my side, best I can say is we will see.
