Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Overview
Ubuntu 26.04 LTS brings Linux 7.0, GNOME 50, better privacy controls, and useful server upgrades for self-hosters and Linux users.
Ubuntu 26.04 Security Shift
Ubuntu 26.04 LTS brings TPM-backed disk encryption, confidential computing, safer defaults, and more. Here is what matters most.
Is something up with the Ubuntu 26.04 LTS iso torrent? My server doesn't seem to have seeded/uploaded _anything_ in the last couple days, even though there's a big cloud of peers (most of whom seem to be leaching/downloading as well). Other ubuntu torrents seem to be running just fine.
Microsoft announces official availability of .NET 10.0 for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS!
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:

Aptivi $ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-10.0 Similarly, to install the runtime on your installation, follow these steps:
$ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install dotnet-runtime-10.0 However, to install .NET 10.0 SDK with Native AOT support, you’ll have to install the following packages:
$ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-aot-10.0 clang To learn more about what’s new for .NET in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, consult the article below.

So I’m testing out #Ubuntu2604LTS on an intel #thinkpad T14 gen 4 and the standby battery life is atrocious. Went to bed around 10pm, closed the lid and when I woke up in the morning it was completely dead. Am I missing something. I thought newer kernels handled sleep and power settings better? This is borderline unusable.
