Ubuntu – Ubuntu has LTS and normal version now. Does Lubuntu have the same

ltslubuntu

Anyway….there is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and the normal 12.10 version. Is that the same with Lubuntu? On their site, for some reason, they seem to be promoting the 12.10 version while for me an LTS is always more appealing. I am wondering if they have the same ideology as the Ubuntu team.

UPDATE: Is it okay to talk about Lubuntu here at all? I understand that it is a flavour of Ubuntu…but still. Are they 2 very different teams?

Best Answer

No.

Unlike Ubuntu, Lubuntu 12.04 is not a LTS, this version will be supported for 18 months. However, a lot of work has been done to improve the stability of the system.

Note: Lubuntu 12.04 is not LTS, but it's based on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. So it's very stable, the same way as Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I'd like to recommend to you to upgrade your system to Lubuntu 12.10.
