Hi All,

Canonical has released (L)Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS.

Important note for all A1-X1000 user:

You can update your existing (L)Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS installation without any problems. :)

But ...

Please do not update to the new "Hardware Enablement Stack". Why? You don't have any benefits with the new stack on your A1-X1000. The new stack includes a new X11 and Mesa 9.0.3 without any benefits for you. Mesa 9.0.3 doesn't support any Radeon HD 7000 series graphics cards because there isn't the RadeonSI driver in the package. :-( But if you need the new stack, you have to look for the packages with "-lts-quantal" at the end of the package name.

Running Linux on AmigaONEs can require some tinkering.
