Ubuntu 6.06 did not include a means to install from a USB device, but did for the first time allow installation directly onto removable USB devices. Ubuntu 6.06 included several new features, including having the Live CD and Install CD merged onto one disc, a graphical installer on Live CD ( Ubiquity), Usplash on shutdown as well as startup, a network manager for easy switching of multiple wired and wireless connections, Humanlooks theme implemented using Tango guidelines, based on Clearlooks and featuring orange colors instead of brown, and GDebi graphical installer for package files. Ubuntu 6.06's support ended on 14 July 2009 for desktops and ended in June 2011 for servers. Development was not complete in April 2006 and Mark Shuttleworth approved slipping the release date to June, making it 6.06 instead. It is sometimes jokingly described as their first "Late To Ship" (LTS) release. Ubuntu 6.06 was released behind schedule, having been intended as 6.04. Ubuntu 6.06 ( Dapper Drake), released on 1 June 2006, was Canonical's fourth release, and the first long-term support (LTS) release. The support period for non-LTS releases is 9 months. Through the ESM paid option, support can be extended even longer, up to a total of ten years for 18.04. LTS releases 12.04 and newer are freely supported for five years. The desktop version of LTS releases for 10.04 and earlier were supported for three years, with server version support for five years. Įvery fourth release, occurring in the second quarter of even-numbered years, has been designated as a long-term support (LTS) release. Ĭanonical schedules Ubuntu releases to occur approximately one month after GNOME releases, which in turn come about one month after releases of X.Org, resulting in each Ubuntu release including a newer version of GNOME and X. Consequently, version numbers for future versions are provisional if the release is delayed until a different month (or even year) to that planned, the version number will change accordingly. The first Ubuntu release, for example, was Ubuntu 4.10 and was released on 20 October 2004. Xubuntu 22.Ubuntu releases are made semiannually by Canonical Ltd, the developers of the Ubuntu operating system, using the year and month of the release as a version number.To see the complete list of new features, improvements and known and fixed bugs, read the release notes.
