Are you currently using Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon? Well, now is the time to upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron, the hassle-free way!
I am one day ahead of their scheduled release. Can’t wait to experience the look and feel of Hardy Heron Long Term Support (LTS)’s features and capabilities.
This post is sort of related with my previous post, approximately 6 months ago. Please feel free to look at the walk through screen shots I’ve produced below.
Alternatively, for GUI monkeys
There you have it folks. I hope you enjoyed the walk through. So what are you waiting for, UPGRADE NOW!
Head over and know the latest and the greatest of Ubuntu 8.04 – Hardy Heron.

really u do good work i have it now
Nice one! Glad to hear that friend. Keep on rockin’ and usin’ Ubuntu. I like the content of your blog. Full of Ubuntu-ish topics.
Hello,
Pardon me for commenting here in this part of your blog.
Sir my sister is an incoming senior in Ateneo de Manila University. She has a lot of artistic talent. I was just wondering if you have or if you are interested in putting up a multimedia company with her? She is a little bit shy and hesitant to take on new things and she could use the guidance and experience after her graduation.
Anyway, I can provide the office space for free here in paranaque – about 3mx3m – hehe at least until you guys are earning or at least for 6 months. Anyway, its just an idea – I can also provide the equipment.
Please if you are interested please email me at my email.
Cheers!

And oh yes, I have downloaded 8.04, I think the one click install of proprietary drivers is very cool and convenient.
Only downside I see is boot time and GUI responsiveness – yung luma na niyang problem.
All in all, Ubuntu Hardy Rocks!

Thanks dannybuntu for this great opportunity. Is your sister into using F/OSS multimedia tools? I have to be honest with you, I am not a Multimedia monkey but rather a Web junky. The good thing is, I have a friend (by the name of Ragingmon) that is in to multimedia using F/OSS tools. View some sample of his craft @ http://ragingmon.deviantart.com/.
OT: Got to tell a little PR here. Been working very closely on our F/OSS Electronic Health Record System Project (codename/temporary name FFEHR)
Okay, I’m sorry I wasn’t able to reply immediately – no email notification of comments. I make comments everywhere that I keep forgetting where I did
Anyway, she’s not yet into FOSS but I am trying to convince her to try.
I’ve looked at his work and they’re great. I’ll contact him once I managed to fix a lot of offline things that I have been wrangling with lately – like sending my kids to school
The Electronic Health Record System sounds pretty useful – one which a lot of people need. specially if you have kids. Which I do – have three! And I can’t remember which one has taken which vaccine. Well the wife does.
That’s completely fine Sir. I’m glad to hear you are determined on convincing your sister. Have you tested the FFEHR? We recently had a new release – http://foss-steps.blogspot.com/2008/06/ffehr-01b20080602-release.html. It’s still in beta, so feel free file a ticket.
My upgrade was more of an “ungrade”. After upgrading to 8.04 ( using the GUI method ) my Ubuntu installation no longer prompts when doing things that require admin ( root ) level rights. Normally when running as a non-root user the system prompts for the Admin password to install/uninstall software or change system level settings. Now, I just get … nothing. Only after switching user ( su ) to root and then running the command will things proceed.
Hi khurt. Hmmm, that’s strange. I have had a clean upgrade. It prompts for admin password that need root privileges and also there is an unlock button on GUI such as this, http://angpilipinogimp.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/unlock-admin-privileges.png
I’m sorry but I can’t recommend you a work around. But if you’re definite that it’s a bug, please post it https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+bugs. Thanks again.
