If you just can’t wait that long, you can download the release candidate of Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope today. It has been reported that if their arent any bugs, then there will be no changes and you will have the new Ubuntu before all your friends.

Here are a few of the changes since Ubuntu 8.10 was released last fall:

  • Updates to the Linux kernel, X.Org server, GNOME and KDE interfaces
  • Support for the Ext4 file system
  • Improved handling of multiple monitors
  • Improved boot speeds
  • Updated software including newer versions of Firefox and OpenOffice.org

There’s also now a version of Ubuntu designed to run on ARM processors, which means Ubuntu will be able to run on a number of upcoming netbooks and mobile internet devices built around chips that can’t run Windows.

This afternoon I went onto his new site and noticed that you can no longer download the themes for free and that they are now all paid themes. I find this a bit of a weird mood by Brian, is this because he was simply just not making any money from paid support?

I went back onto the site a couple of minutes ago and noticed that the site is now down due to a database error. Is this because it has been hacked or it Brian updating something? Anyone have any tips?
