Death is Coming for Ubuntu 22.10 – Upgrade Soon!

A quick heads-up to anyone still using Ubuntu 22.10 — support for it ends on July 20, 2023. That’s less than a month way away at the time of writing. The good news is that you’re not out of options. You can upgrade to Ubuntu 23.04 in-place, without needing to reinstall. You may need to manually re-enable any PPAs or 3rd-party repositories you’re making use of, though. However, this will only be a short-term solution as support for Ubuntu 23.04 ends early next year. Hate the hassle of upgrading regularly? Interim Ubuntu releases expire every 9 months so, to avoid

How to Upgrade to KDE Plasma 5.27 on Kubuntu 22.10

Kubuntu 22.10 users can now upgrade to the latest KDE Plasma 5.27 release thanks to the ever-dependable Kubuntu backports PPA. As expected, Kubuntu developers put in the effort necessary to package the latest Plasma release for use atop Kubuntu 22.10. As the backports PPA is entirely opt-in (i.e. it’s not enabled by default) users must go out of their way to add it in order to receive the update. KDE Plasma 5.27 features a variety of cool things, the most notable being a(n incredibly cool) new window tiling experience, and major improvements to multi-monitor handling. There are also Flatpak setting

‘Folder Color’ Tool Add Support for Ubuntu 22.10

You’re probably already familiar with Folder Color, a terrifically nifty tool that makes it easy to change the colour of folder icons in Nautilus. Well, I’ve some good news: it recently added support for Ubuntu 22.10 and GNOME 43. This means you can continue to change the colour of any folder in Nautilus, as well as badge folders with a selection of emblems. If you’ve used the tool in earlier versions of Ubuntu and Nautilus nothing has changed: right-click on any folder in the file manager and page into the ‘folder color’ menu, and pick a hue from the list

Ubuntu 22.10: What’s New? [Video]

Ubuntu 22.10 is primed, ready to release on October 20 and to help ratchet up the excitement I’ve put together a short video to showcase the release’s most exciting new features. Not that any of them will be a surprise if you read this blog often enough! All told, Ubuntu 22.10 is a fairly modest update to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. While the inclusion GNOME 43 and the switch to PipeWire as its underlying audio stack are very positive changes, they’re not enough luscious enough to lure long-term support fans away from the bosom of stability. There’s still plenty to enjoy,
