Ubuntu 25.04 To Further Enhance Its Installer, Aims For Linux 6.14 Kernel


Canonical's Interim Engineering Director for Ubuntu Desktop, Oliver Smith, has shared some early roadmap plans for the Ubuntu 25.04 development cycle.

Ubuntu 25.04 for release next April will have plenty more exciting enhancements from the desktop to lower down the stack with various upgrades and refinements. In particular, enhancements around the dual boot experience with Ubuntu will be improved upon along with other partitioning enhancements, better handling of Microsoft Windows BitLocker encryption, and better improving the TPM-backed full disk encryption. On the versioning side, Ubuntu 25.04 will make use of the GNOME 48 desktop environment.
