Ubuntu 24.10 Is The "Oracular Oriole"


For those keeping track of Ubuntu's animal-themed codenames, Ubuntu 24.10 is now confirmed to be the Oracular Oriole.

Ubuntu 24.10 development is getting underway and now "Oracular Oriole" is the codename for this post-LTS cycle. Ubuntu codenames don't carry too much relevant weight these days besides "oracular" now being the Ubuntu package archive name for the 24.10 cycle and the names have just become increasingly more complex over the years as they continue the adjective-animal theme for A through Z. Ubuntu 24.10 will hopefully be in good shape for out-of-the-box support with upcoming Intel Lunar Lake platforms, Intel Battlemage graphics, AMD Zen 5 if not already with 24.04 LTS, AMD RDNA4 graphics, and other upcoming hardware.
