spacer.gif   Ubuntu 7.04 to 8.10 Benchmarks: Is Ubuntu Getting Slower?

  Linux News
"With the release of Ubuntu 8.10 coming out later this week we decided to use this opportunity to explore how the performance of this desktop Linux operating system has evolved over the past few releases. We performed clean installations of Ubuntu 7.04, Ubuntu 7.10, Ubuntu 8.04, and Ubuntu 8.10 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T60 notebook and used the Phoronix Test Suite to run 35 tests on each release that covered nine different areas of the system. After spending well more than 100 hours running these tests, the results are now available and our findings may very well surprise you."

"Ubuntu needs to be more user-friendly. Although the operating system has a beautiful interface, and is quite easy to use—even for those who have never tried, or even seen Linux before—it is still really difficult to get things up-and-running in Ubuntu when there is a glitch."

spacer.gif   Intel's Core 2 Under Linux
Posted by : Nohr on Friday, August 25, 2006 - 05:03 PM

  Linux News
"By now, you've probably heard that Intel has a new chip out that went by the code-name “Conroe” but now goes by the names Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Extreme. So while you may have read about how great these chips are under Windows, I bet you have heard little to no news about Linux performance or even Linux support. As usual, this is where Linux Hardware comes in to fill in the gaps."
