Ubuntu 24.04.3 starts development
Ubuntu 24.04 Noble Numbat was released on April 25th, 2024, to give you the latest LTS version of Ubuntu, packed with awesome features and improved desktop user experience. Since then, the two point releases of the LTS versions were released to bring more bug fixes and to bring general improvements to maximize your productivity.
Recently, there has been work that revolved around releasing the third point version of Ubuntu, which will bring even more improvements and bug fixes. Today, the first set of release candidate disks for this Ubuntu point release were released under this link, while the Launchpad milestone can be found here.
The full changelogs for this point release that will be released soon can be found here, with some of the bug fixes including, but not limited to:
- Installation bug fixes
- Fix build failure when using lowlatency-hwe-24.04, as ubuntustudio does.

- If a client application has not called DRI2ScreenInit(), DRI2Authenticate() and DRI2CreateDrawable2() cause the X server to crash. This patch adds some sanity checks to ensure the X server stays running.
