Ubuntu 20.10 | Installation and First Impressions

How's about making videos on ARCOLINUX with latest desktop environments. (Kde,xfce,jsm,deepin,gnome,mate,bspwm.....Etc.......All which are in arcolinux))😊😊😊

thanx for video, next Fedora 33? maybe puppy or void, i think thats gonna be intresting )))

So you have a separate pc just to test distros, noice..

In my opinion, all the purple accents and all “cool kid” Ubuntu colours only make Ubuntu seem unprofessional. They could get rid of the purple accents (on dark themes they are even worse) and get some better looking wallpapers. The looks of a distro speak a little about it. The colour scheme is amateur and does not smell professional enough - it’s the main image of Linux that people first get, after all

You should try KDE Neon. I also like Budgie alot, but compared to Neon the UX feels to heavy.

Tyler rocks 👍

Nice! Always good to hear/see your views. Ubuntu is still a solid (production level stability) distro and my workhorse.

Seems pretty stable for a Beta release. Then again, it barely changed anything from 20.04 since most the gnome 3.38 changes were already implemented on Ubuntu 20.04

Thank you, Tyler.

If only Pop_Os! was releasing their beta at the same time

I can't get it to boot on my laptop. 20.04 works fine, but GG won't with or without secureboot enabled.

I like this bloke - Pommy accent doesn't grate on Australians :)

2.8 Great Britains :D

I hope at some point Gnome takes a page from KDE and becomes slimmer. I'm trying out Kubuntu now and really enjoying how little resources and fast it is but using Material Shell does sound interesting and I may test it out.

As for package Manager I like Muon, I don't know if Synaptic has different packages but I like the look of Muon.


Have you tried the free version of DaVinci Resolve? I just saw a video that said it was the best of the free video editing programs.

Excellent videos, clear concise, and simple. Great real-time tests make it easy to digest. Well done

Great video mate! you reminded me that I need to install Caffeine lol I've never used material shell, I'll have to check that out. :)

hey tyler ,what do you think which gnome distro would be best for daily using ?? ubuntu ,fedora or manjaro??

sudo dnf install yaru-theme ,I think .
I don't really remember the package name , but yaru is there in the fedora repo .
And you can do gnome-software --quit and then start it ,after adding flathub.

Hi Tyler, just a thought .... this next round of desktops a lot of devs have put in a ton of work improving Wayland support should be HIGHLY functional especially KDE 5.20 which should be the desktop version for next release. Fedora Wayland is standard in GDM for awhile and taken for granted. Wayland is still not standard in Ubuntu but can switch to a Wayland session at login. GDM 3.38 should also better integrate Testing Ubuntu 20.10 should include a Wayland run thru..... just a thought... watching this at 1:20 am need to sleep....

Great review!

Does it still install that crappy Flash to check "Install third-party..."? Die Flash, die.

Hi Tyler,
I AM MISSING YOU LIGHTNING UP YOUR CIGG IN MIDDLE OF VIDEO 😂😂
PLEASE...

I don't mind seeing the big name distros but I wouldn't mind seeing some obscure Slackware based reviews such as Zenwalk etc. Anyway good review👍

Pretty sure I already know the answer but is there any chance you would be willing to do a video on chrome OS? It runs Linux apps, android apps, web apps, etc... It's pretty nice, very fast and efficient even on older / lesser hardware. I can point you to the best install method (Kedar's) which is very easy and doesn't take much time at all... NO proprietary hardware (ChromeBook) required! 😊

Moved back to 19.04 Has serious WiFi speed issues. Compiled Realtek 8812 drivers even moved the Kernel to 5.5.0 just no luck.

Hey Tyler, since you have tried both fedora 33 beta and groovy gorilla, which feels smoother?. I have always found ubuntu snappier but is also choppy. While fedora feels smoother

whats the point of distrohopping and reviewing the stuff if youre going to load material shell on all of them now?

That waste of space with title bar drives me nuts.

so u uninstal games from ubuntu and gain 300 mb free ram . That means those games were running in backround?

How to set custom resolution in ubuntu 20.04?

I tried some steps in terminal and set the resolution to the desired. But while applying it reverts back to the last state 1024x768.

Please suggest me. My screen optimal is 1440x900.

Hi there, which shortcut key are you using to bring search bar and type command please??

This time they did not even bother changing the wallpaper LOL

I'd rather wait for Ubuntu Mate 20.10. I never cared for Unity. I think they are trying to make it look more like Android.

OMG can’t believe this amazing channel has only 10k subs.

How unfortunate more of the same.........................

Great content as always

I dd an upgrade from 18. It went smooth, but couldn't boot after. It booted on 3rd attempt. What could be wrong? May I needed to wait longer? Anyway it works now, but I didn't reboot for three days. Strange I run LibreOffice 6.4.6 but you 7.0.1, how it can be?

Why don't every app using global menu bar

I am having a really hard time with snapd. I really do not like snap.

I actually use this beta and haven't encountered any problem. Been using it for teaching and its faster than my debloated windows 10 😁

Thanks so much for this informative video! I’m on Ub 18.04 but I was close to switching distros, until I saw 20.11 has the new kernel and new Gnome versions. Your run-through made me feel even more confident in staying/upgrading - and I learned a lot. Nice salting of opinion while keeping it instructional - thanks for being real (not snarky)!

I tested Ubuntu 20.10 on install DVD and realized that,
1) No sound.
2) Only ESP(Efi System Partition) available and unable to install on MBR .
... Backward compatibility was ignored. (20.04 is better.)

the background image should be a gorilla.

I just installed it on my test machine. Embarrassed to say I spent a few hours trying to install it MBR for legacy boot and discovered that can’t be done. The reason is my Asus Z77 will only boot a UEFI disk as long as it stays connected. Remove it or change to another disk it’s over. A bug in firmware. So legacy boot 7 operating systems. Very little about this release on the topic. It creates a boot image for bios systems that resides on a small partition. Next partition is the typical UEFI fat 32. Last the root ext4 system. It works great. Would be nice if they had explained that they were no longer supporting MBR. Only GPT. My other two systems are UEFI boot and newer.

Is this works on ryzen 5 3500U vega 8 mobile processor w/o any resolution problem ?

(Like in the video) I now have the two software centre icons too!! How do I get rid of one?? Thanks.

Great review Tyler thank you.
