Looking forward to #Kubuntu #2604! Also, whatever happened to #UbuntuCoreDesktop that seemed very cool, too bad it has disappeared.

Now it is done: At #OpenPrinting we have now full #RISCV support by our 6 Snaps in the Snap Store:
https://snapcraft.io/publisher/openprinting
- CUPS: Full printing stack
- ipp-usb: IPP-over-USB daemon for driverless USB printing
- 4 Printer Applications: All printer drivers which typically come with Linux distros, ~10000 legacy printers supportedThese Snaps can be used on the the #DeepComputing Risc-V board for @frameworkcomputer laptops, also with #Ubuntu Core and #UbuntuCoreDesktop.

You have missed my talk about #Snap and #UbuntuCoreDesktop on #GUADEC #GUADEC2024 in Denver?
Learn how Snap and the immutable all- Snap distros #Ubuntu Core and Ubuntu Core Desktop work.
Installing and updating of apps and of the operating system itself as easy as on a smartphone!

Also, thanks, @kenvandine helping me answering the questions.

Tomorrow in the early morning I have to leave my home to depart to the #GUADEC #GUADEC2024. I already have checked in for my Lufthansa flights VIE -> MUC -> DEN to Denver, Colorado!
My Canonical colleagues @kenvandine @3v1n0 @AKernelPanic and Jeremy Bicha will be there, too, and I will meet @linuxflower again, and Ryan Sipes (CEO of @thunderbird) again.
The slides for my #Snap and #UbuntuCoreDesktop talk are already uploaded:

@oac Looks like that I have to start letting the #OpenPrinting Snaps (CUPS, ipp-usb, Printer Applications) get built on RISC V.
We want #UbuntuCoreDesktop on RISC-V!!

@nuccitheboss @kenvandine Great Q&A session!
I watched the live stream of @kenvandine 's Q&A session, was great, that he left near 30 min for Q&A.
When I gave this talk on #FOSDEM #FOSDEM2024 I got only a 25-min slot and they showed me the "still XX min" cards too late so that I did not have time for Q&A, only a hallway session afterwards.
On #GUADEC #GUADEC2024, if they accept my #UbuntuCoreDesktop talk, I will get a 40 min slot and I will give the same 25-min talk as I did on FOSDEM ...

Ubuntu Core Desktop Delayed, Won’t Be Released in April
Ubuntu Core Desktop will not be released alongside Ubuntu 24.04 LTS in April, as originally hoped. For those thinking “wait, what?!” — last year Canonical announced it was building an all-snap, immutable version of Ubuntu for home users called Ubuntu Core Desktop. Further, it was aiming to make the first version available to download in April of this year, alongside the regular Ubuntu 24.04 LTS release. It wasn’t going to be default, more of a formal, public preview release. But those plans have changed: [Ubuntu Core Desktop] won’t be released by 24.04, and unfortunately, I can’t provide a date until :sys_more_orange:

@popey No problem, I have now a working and updated #UbuntuCoreDesktop VM on my laptop, using Virtual Machine Manager. Important is to give 4 GB of RAM to the VM.
Also @kewisch is creating a VM currently.
And thanks, @kenvandine for helping @kewisch and me to get the VMs going ...

@popey No problem. Will you have a demo of #UbuntuCoreDesktop on your laptop (as VM) though?
I will remove/edit the references in my talk description and in the #OpenPrinting News ...

@jalefkowit @jorge And under the sandboxing/cross-distro packaging methods #Snap is the one which covers all types of applications: GUI//Desktop, CLI, system and user daemons, desktop environments, even kernels, core systems, and boot systems, so that one can make up an all-Snap OS, like #UbuntuCoreDesktop

@opensuse and especially do not miss #UbuntuCoreDesktop and #Snap
It is on Sunday, 13:30, so you have a good chance to meet @popey with his Steam Deck before my talk, where you learn more about what he will have demoed to you (but I look into putting an Ubuntu Core Desktop VM onto my laptop, too, so if you only bump into me and not into @popey ...)

Good News!! The world of #Linux will get more snappy in 2024!
@zygoon is returning to #Canonical to make #Snap working better with all distros especially non- #Ubuntu.
So snapping your apps will make them available for all distros (including #UbuntuCoreDesktop but also most of the others).
And we at #OpenPrinting can easily distribute printer and scanner drivers as Printer/Scanner Application Snaps!

@frameworkcomputer Looks great, thinking about buying a 13 DIY with Intel 13th gen, 64GB RAM, 4 TB storage beginning 2024 when I get my next laptop compensation at Canonical. To run Ubuntu on it. And with a pluggable 1TB module I could run #UbuntuCoreDesktop for testing and demoing.

@linuxmatters @popey It leaked to the public when I announced my attempt to switch Ubuntu 23.10 to the CUPS Snap in the OpenPrinting News, OMG Ubuntu picked up on that and then a Canonical employee and good friend of us revealed #UbuntuCoreDesktop in the comments, triggering a complete HOWTO for it in OMG Ubuntu the next day ....
And a week later Oliver Smith, product manager desktop at Canonical, wrote a great blog about immutable distros ...

@mesebrec @popey @mathieucomandon Permission for just uploading/publishing in the Store is only needed for Snaps with classic confinement.
And AFAIK classically confined #Snap cannot be installed on all-Snap distros as #UbuntuCore or #ubuntuCoreDesktop.

Nice talk by @kenvandine and Oliver Smith about #Ubuntu #UbuntuCoreDesktop on the #ubuntuSummit #ubuntuSummit2023
Oliver: For what and for whom it is good for
Ken: How it works and development progress
Ken shouts me out when telling about printing support (11:21).
nemowei5553 complains about printing as first comment in YouTube comments, I as lead of #OpenPrinting and designer of Core Desktop's printing/scanning support explain everything

#Canonical reveals more details about #UbuntuCoreDesktop
This new entrant in the #immutable space is not a replacement for ordinary #Ubuntu
Updates are monolithic: a whole fresh image is pushed out, and all the OS components are upgraded in a single operation. Canonical believes it has some unique new angles. #CoreDesktop is constructed as additional layers on top of the existing #UbuntuCore, and like Core, it's entirely built with a single packaging system: Ubuntu's Snap
