Ubuntu Pack 24.04 now available in ten editions with extra apps, drivers, and codecs

Although Ubuntu Linux comes with some apps out-of-the-box, Ubuntu Pack takes everything a few steps further by adding a full set of multimedia codecs and apps that turn it into an "all-inclusive" operating system that has everything needed by most home and office users. This week, Canonical's official partner UALinux is back with Ubuntu Pack 24.04, a version obviously based on Ubuntu Linux 24.04 LTS.

Ubuntu Pack 24.04 comes in the shape of no less than ten editions, namely Ubuntu (from Canonical), Gnome, LikeWin, Budgie, Cinnamon, KDE (Kubuntu), LXqt (Lubuntu), Mate, Unity, as well as Xfce (Xubuntu). The DDE (Deepin) edition has not been updated to 24.04 yet. All these editions come with all updates up to July 2024 and come with the Ubiquity installed preloaded. Support for running Windows apps is also available from the first moment, without the need to install anything.

The new version comes with additional printer drivers, support for smart cards and hardware keys, full support for English, Russian, and Ukrainian (other languages require downloading the packages needed), apps such as Signal, Viber, Zoom, Gimp, Inkscape, XnView, R-Linux, Peazip, and much more. 

The installation ISO images are suited for burning them to both DVDs and USB drives, as they have roughly 4.3 GB in size. Those who just want Ubuntu Linux 24.04 LTS on a stick can find it on Amazon for $18.99 in the shape of a bootable 16 GB generic drive.
