Linux ubuntu

Thu, 01/13/2011 - 18:03

Linux Ubuntu is named after the Southern African philosophy of Ubuntu (“humanity towards others”). Ubuntu is designed primarily for desktop use. Ubuntu is sponsored by the UK-based company Canonical Ltd.

Canonical releases new versions of Ubuntu every six months with commitment to support each release for eighteen months. It was decided that every fourth release, would receive long-term support (LTS). LTS releases are supported for three years on the desktop and five years on the server
