![]() ![]() Effort to land this has taken a while so a number of folks might be surprised, if pleased to see it finally arrive. Other ChangesĪ new version of Mutter ships in Ubuntu 22.10 and, courtesy of upstream changes, we get high resolution scroll wheel support in Wayland and in Xorg sessions. Graphics wise, Ubuntu 22.10 packs the Mesa 22.2 release. ![]() While Ubuntu 22.10 kernel freeze isn’t until October 6, it’s too late for Ubuntu 22.10 to include Linux kernel 6.0. Linux 6.0 is due to be released in mid October. This is the most recent release at the time of writing. KernelĬurrent daily builds of Ubuntu 22.10 ship with Linux kernel 5.19. There’s WebP support in the new LibreOffice 7.4 release too. This is thanks to Ubuntu devs shipping the webp-pixbuf-loader library (install this to enable WebP support in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS). Ubuntu 22.10 supports WebP image format out of the box in the file manager and in the native photo viewer. You can see WebP files out-of-the-box in 22.10 The toolbar in Nautilus 43 also splits at reduce width to keep all options on screen (as touch-friendly targets). When you reduce the width of the window the sidebar gets out of the way, and resurfaces as a slide-over page. In Ubuntu 22.10 the Nautilus file manager is fully adaptive. I’ve written about new features in Nautilus 43 a few times already so I’ll stash the prose and get to the details. It’s a subtle UX tweak that, I find, is far more in keeping with the way the way the rest of the desktop behaves. When multiple windows of the same app are opened (even if some are minimised) clicking on an app icon in the dock now presents a dynamic overview of rather than, as before, a near-dock pop-over of window thumbnails. Well, I’m pleased to say that request was merged and the change is default in Ubuntu 22.10. I was excited as it brought a long-standing Unity-era behaviour to the modern GNOME Shell-based Ubuntu desktop. Regularly readers may recall an Ubuntu Dock merge proposal I wrote about a few months back. Window spread is the default behaviour now On portable devices the menu will present battery information on the upper left of the pod. Options to suspend, restart, or power-off are now located behind the ‘power’ icon in the upper right of the the new menu. For input, a mic must be in use for the mic slider to show. Regularly switch between audio input and output devices? The new quick toggles panel makes it changing input and output audio devices easy: you can do it straight from the menu by clicking the overflow arrow that appears when compatible hardware is connected/attached. The network pod also supports in-menu sub-panels where you can, e.g., select a different network directly, no more pop-up modal or trip to Network settings required. It now takes just one click to enable/disable Wi-Fi, VPN, Bluetooth, Night Light, Airplane Mode, and Dark Mode.
