About this Episode

On this episode of This Week in Linux, we've got a great show for you even though I'm sick. As they say in show business, the show must go on or something like that. Lenovo Adds Ubuntu Laptops & PCs to their lineup. UBports released their latest update with 16.04 OTA-13. Puppy Linux has a brand new version out with Puppy Linux 9.5. Microsoft announce that after a long wait everyone can rejoice that they are finally bringing Microsoft Edge to Linux! Mozilla also announced a new version of Firefox with Firefox 81. EndeavourOS has a new release of this Arch Linux based distro with version 2020.09.20 and they also announced a new ARM Edition of the distro. GNOME has decided to change the version numbering for the project. We'll talk about this and why it matters or why it doesn't. There's a new update to the very powerful ebook reader Calibre, with Calibre 5.0. We'll check out the Screenshot Utility, Flameshot and their latest release of 0.8. Then we'll round out the show with some potentially great news for the Lightworks Video Editor. All that and much more on Your Weekly Source for Linux GNews!
