Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Upgrades Now Available for 25.10 Users, Streamlines GPU Dev Access

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS upgrades are now officially available for users of Ubuntu 25.10. With support for Ubuntu 25.10 ending in July, users are encouraged to upgrade soon. Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, codenamed 'Resolute Raccoon', initially released on April 23, 2026. This Long Term Support release features GNOME 50 and Linux kernel 7.0. Significant changes include enhanced developer access to NVIDIA CUDA and AMD ROCm, as these technologies are now more readily available within the system. Other updates encompass new default applications, the integration of Snap store and web searching capabilities into the GNOME Shell Overview, and the option to enable Ubuntu Pro through the Security Center. Visual password feedback for sudo commands and a refreshed set of folder icons are also part of the update.
