I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 – Jaunty Jackalope on my machine today. This new version was released last month on April 23, 2009. It’s been a year since I got Hardy Heron, and I thought I give it a try for Jaunty Jackalope.
ubuntulogo904Thoughts about this version: As usual, easy to install. It’s fast, much faster than my old one. The boot time is fast. Has new look, sexy boot screen, new login screen(don’t like), and some new themes(don’t like). And of course better performance. Enabling restricted hardware is also easy, And I had no problem installing driver for my video card.
