Cosa non troviamo:

Some GNOME apps will not be upgraded to 3.6 for the 12.10 release. If you want these, try the GNOME3 PPA. Affected apps include Aisleriot, Nautilus, System Settings, and Totem.
Web does not support Flash in Ubuntu 12.10 (1001229). If you need Flash, try Firefox or Chromium.
Boxes is not included as it didn’t seem to be working (1038763)
. Also, qemu-linaro (qemu-kvm-spice) doesn’t built on i386 in Ubuntu.
qemu-kvm with spice support does build in Debian though on i386. (928432)
Documents is not included as it currently depends on LibreOffice, at least as packaged in Debian & Ubuntu.
LibreOffice is a more powerful office suite.
Ubuntu One is not included by default as it doesn’t feel like a GNOME app.
If you want the GNOME Classic with-effects session to work, install compiz.
If you want Ubuntu-style notifications in GNOME Classic, install notify-osd.

Ubuntu GNOME Remix 12.10 Alpha 2 è sconsigliato ai non sviluppatori e a tutti coloro che vogliono un ambiente lavorativo stabile (è pur sempre una versione Alpha).

Non è ancora stato reso disponibile il download diretto di Ubuntu GNOME Remix 12.10 e per questo se volete scaricarla dovete usare i files torrent dell’ISO adatta al vostro sistema:

Il prossimo rilascio programmato è previsto per il 27 Settembre con la Beta 2.
