Microsoft has announced that .NET 10.0 is now available globally for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS users! This version of .NET brings improved performance and new features, as well as other enhancements across different areas of the framework.

.NET is one of the officially supported development toolchains thanks to Microsoft and Canonical partnering together to ensure that .NET is available and easily installable in Ubuntu. This ensures that .NET works properly across multiple Ubuntu versions.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon has also seen many changes besides the availability of .NET 10.0, including the usage of Linux 7.0 as the kernel to add support for new hardware and to enhance your computer’s performance and reliability. Besides, .NET 10.0 introduced post-quantum cryptography.

To install .NET 10.0 SDK on your Ubuntu 26.04 LTS installation, follow these steps:

Similarly, to install the runtime on your installation, follow these steps:

However, to install .NET 10.0 SDK with Native AOT support, you’ll have to install the following packages:

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon uses Linux 7.0

This year has seen a significant events as Canonical has released a new long-term support release of Ubuntu, which is Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon! Yesterday, this version of Ubuntu was made available to the general public, and it includes a significant amount of improvements, as well as new features.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS is built on Linux 7.0, which is a significant milestone in the history of Ubuntu. This was done under Canonical’s promise of bringing the latest Linux version to Ubuntu versions at the time of the release.

You can consult the minimal changelogs of Linux 7.0 here.

Linux 7.0 in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS provides support for Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors (Panther Lake), which allows users who have this processor installed on their systems to experience the best of Ubuntu without any compatibility issues. This kernel introduces optimizations for the neural processing unit (NPU), which enables AI-enabled applications to provide maximum performance and improved efficiency.

Linux 7.0 in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS also provides support for IgH EtherCAT module, which enables support for a real-time networking protocol while enabling native OS support for microsecond-level timing precision for demanding workflows, such as robotics platforms.

For those who are investing in cloud-based solutions, such as Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, Ubuntu 26.04 LTS has been optimized for virtual machine images to enable maximum performance for the most demanding workflows in the cloud. This improves productivity while saving time in those tasks when run on the cloud.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon is now available!

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon is now available for users! This succeeds the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Noble Numbat, which was a previous long-term support version of Ubuntu that provides 15 years of total support, with 5 years of mainstream support for bug fixes and other improvements.

Since Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, more improvements have been made to the Ubuntu desktop experience to make your productivity more streamlined than before. With the introduction of GNOME 50, the desktop has seen many enhancements, such as better fractional scaling that minimizes blurring, monospace font size reduction to match the standard UI font, and a brand new system performance utility that lets you discover performance issues.

According to the official changelogs for LTS users, Ubuntu 26.04 has incorporated several new applications, including, but not limited to:

• Papers document viewer: The new document viewer replaces Evince that is actually a fork of Evince that uses GTK4 and partial usage of Rust for both memory safety and performance improvements.
• Loupe image viewer: The new image viewer replaces Eye of GNOME to use the new Glycin library written in Rust for faster and more secure image viewing.
• Ptyxis terminal emulator: The new terminal emulator replaces the older GNOME Terminal to ensure that more polished look matches the aesthetics of the Ubuntu desktop. Also, it supports directly running containers through podman, toolbox, and distrobox.
• Resources system monitor: The new system monitor app replaces System Monitor and Power Statistics to monitor the utilization of system resources more effortlessly.

Alongside the new applications, Ubuntu has also seen more improvements across different areas of the desktop, such as exclusivity to Wayland. In case you’re not a fan of Wayland, Ubuntu flavors still exist, such as Xubuntu.

The App Center has seen many improvements since the last LTS release, including installs in progress, third-part deb installation, and direct uninstall of snaps from the app manager. Additionally, Security Center has been added to check your computer’s security.

As for users who are using ARM64 systems, initial hardware enablement work is conducted with the Snapdragon X Elite platform that is included in the desktop ISO, along with a generic ARM64 ISOs targeting virtual machines, ACPI + EFI platforms, and Snapdragon-based Windows-on-ARM (WoA) devices.

If you are frustrated with the way the software updater notifies you that updates are available by opening windows, the software updater has been reworked to give you an actual notification if there are available updates. An icon in the system tray will remind you that there are available updates, even though the notification has been dismissed.

The following frameworks have been updated, including, but not limited to:

• OpenSSH 1:10.2p1
• ClamAV v1.4.3
• Django v5.2
• PHP v8.5
• Dovecot v2.4.2
• Postfix v3.10.0
• Samba v4.23
• Squid v7.2
• SSSD v2.12
• MySQL v8.4.8
• PostgreSQL v18
• Valkey v9.0.3

Finally, .NET 10.0 is included with the release of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, which allows developers and users to build and run applications that are built with .NET 10.0 to allow access to the latest features and improvements that were done in this new LTS version of .NET. Canonical has also introduced a new way to install .NET using snaps instead of a regular APT, starting with .NET 10.0.

For developers, the following toolchains, apart from .NET, have been released:

• GCC v15.2, binutils v2.45, glibc v2.42
• Python v3.13.9 and v3.14
• LLVM v21
• Rust v1.91, v1.92, v1.93
• Golang v1.25
• Zig v0.14.1
• OpenJDK v8, v11, v17, v21, v25, v26 preview, v27 preview

To upgrade your system to 26.04 LTS, either open the terminal and run sudo do-release-upgrade, or open Software Updates and start the upgrade. Make sure that your packages are upgraded first.

To download this awesome release, check out the following links:

• Ubuntu 26.04 desktop
• Kubuntu 26.04 desktop
• Lubuntu 26.04 desktop
• Ubuntu Budgie 26.04 desktop

Ghostty is now available on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon

Ghostty is a terminal emulator that uses your graphics card to achieve high performance, while focusing on being feature-rich and providing native user interface, and is written in Zig.

One day before Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon gets released, Ghostty has been added to the official Ubuntu repositories for this release under the universe pocket, with the note that ptyxis would still be the default terminal emulator and that the availability of Ghostty would be available as a preview.

The official announcement made by Canonical states that Ghostty can be installed to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Noble Numbat as follows:

The above command will install Ghostty v1.3.0, and it contains new feature additions and improvements since Ghostty went v1.0. Currently, Zig v0.15 is used to build Ghostty, and the terminal emulator is available for Ubuntu systems on 64-bit processors, with amd64 and arm64 being the supported architectures.

You’ll need a graphics card that supports OpenGL v4.3 or later in order for Ghostty to work. If you have a graphics card that doesn’t meet this requirement, you’ll have to either find another terminal emulator or launch Ghostty with software rendering, with:

The Ghostty library, libghostty, is currently not available as a system-wide library, but a future package update will include it.

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Noble Numbat brought improvements to the Ubuntu desktop while introducing new features. It was released as a long-term support version rather than the short-term support version to make it suitable for both regular desktop users and enterprise users.
