Linux Identity Starter concentrates on covering the latest Ubuntu Linux 13.04 Raring Ringtail. There are a whole of updates in 13.04 since the previous release. There's an all-around polish to every detail. In addition to updates and refinements, this release heralds some significant changes in the direction of Ubuntu and, I a way, computing as a whole.
In this issue of Linux Identity, you will find helpful articles that cover some of the basics tasks in Ubuntu, including installing it from scratch, adding multimedia functionality, editing videos, and even advanced tasks like setting up your very own private cloud.
Traditionally, the magazine comes with two install DVDs containg each other: double-face DVD 10 with full 32 and 64-bit installer and DVD 5 (Ubuntu Family) – multiboot installation disc optimized for 64-bit processors, BIOS and UEFI compatible, containing Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu and Ubuntu GNOME 13.04.
