e are pleased to announce the release of the next version of our distro – and the first as an official flavor of the Ubuntu family.
Based on 16.04 and 16.10 budgie-remix experiences, feedback and suggestions we have received from our users, the new release comes with a lot of new features, fixes and optimizations:
Focused heavily on stability
More customisation options via budgie welcome
Complete desktop look and feel change – Material Designs of Adapta or Vimix
Startup wizard on first logon taking new users through the first logon procedures
Browser ballot – we believe you should decide what your favorite browser should be
Overhaul of our delivered application set – the best from the GNOME family as well as the fantastic Terminix terminal emulator
Latest upstream Budgie desktop v10.2.9
You can and should read more about what we have been upto via our release notes .
Download links and installation guide are provided. As always – do check the md5sum hash value of the downloaded ISO – this really does help you get on with a flying start for your install.
Thank you all for your continued support!
David, Ubuntu Budgie Project Leader.
