Ubuntu 9.04 is out, Netbook Remix included

As you probably have heard, Ubuntu released 9.04 today. What I am really excited about is the new Netbook Remix. I haven’t downloaded it and test it on my Netbook but I’m prepare to do so sometime next week.

I have an Acer Aspire One. Here’s the level of support:

Acer Aspire One

Works well for most things, sound, webcam, ports all reported to work correctly. Minor problems include pulseaudio interfering with sound recording, and media card reader issues unless it is booted with a card in the slot.

Known issues:

335843 – media card reader not hotpluggable on acer aspire one

354620 – Recording from microphone stutters when pulseaudio is running

I hope they fix the wireless indicator.

Go here to download Ubuntu 9.04.
