Jono Bacon announces that Mir, Ubuntu’s new display server designed for fast, efficient and extensible display across devices are to be made default as XMir (an implementation of X on Mir) for users running open-source drivers in Ubuntu 13.10, along with Unity 7. He also mentions that proprietary drivers will fallback to X in 13.10 but will get XMir support in 14.04 LTS, explains that the decision is needed to make Mir production-stable for 14.04 LTS, and answers user’s possible questions.

The Lubuntu blog reports “Munich City Council plan to make Ubuntu discs available as a ‘replacement for Windows XP’ – Microsoft’s 11-year old operating system for which support officially ends in April of next year. The proactive effort is been billed as an attempt to ‘prevent electronic waste’ from discarded computers that, whilst still serviceable with an alternative OS, would fail to meet the requirements of Windows 7 or Windows 8.”
