Ubuntu Unity is an Ubuntu community edition which ships with the Unity desktop, an interface which was developed by Canonical and then continued by the community. The project's new 24.10 release features Ubuntu 7.7 and version 6.11 of the Linux kernel. "Ubuntu Unity 24.10 continues to use Unity 7.7, and has seen a move away from unity-greeter as a result of some bugs discovered only a short while before the release (after the archive freezes) to lightdm-gtk-greeter; we continue to use LightDM, of course (this bug also affected other flavours of Ubuntu that used unity-greeter atop LightDM). As with Ubuntu Unity 24.04, the 24.10 installation images use Calamares. We would like to thank Simon Quigley and Aaron Rainbolt for integrating Calamares with our existing Ubuntu Unity live session, and last-minute fixes for bugs reported prior to the final release." The project also supplies experimental build ISOs featuring the Lomiri desktop, though they are not yet recommended for daily use. Continue to the release announcement for further details.

The Ubuntu Studio project has announced the launch of Ubuntu Studio 24.10. The new release includes a Minimal install mode, a change in kernel configurations, and offers nine months of support. "We have now implemented minimal installations in the system installer. This will let you install a minimal desktop to get going and then install what you need via Ubuntu Studio Installer. This will make a faster installation process and lets you customize what you need for your personal Studio. Unfortunately, at least for the time being, we also had to get rid of the default shortcuts in the panel since it would cause an error when loading without the applications being installed. A solution for this is coming in 25.04. The generic Ubuntu kernel is now fully capable of low-latency workloads. As such, with this release, we have switched from the low-latency kernel to the generic kernel with the boot options to enable the low-latency configuration enabled by default." The new release updates the Plasma desktop to version 6 and includes PipeWire 1.2.4. Additional information is provided in release announcement and in the release notes.

Erich Eickmeyer has announced the release of Edubuntu 24.10, an Ubuntu variant designed for use in schools and available for standard 64-bit computers as well as Raspberry Pi 5 boards: "Hello fellow educators and students! We've updated Edubuntu with a new wallpaper and added some security features in-line with Ubuntu desktop. We are excited for these small, but mighty changes to help you get the most out of Edubuntu. New Features: we have changed our default wallpaper for this and the next two releases, this will distinguish these releases for this LTS cycle until the next LTS; this release includes GNOME 47; like Ubuntu Desktop, Edubuntu now includes the Permissions Prompting and the Security Center. This release is evolutionary rather than revolutionary. We didn't have much time this cycle to work through our applications and determine which applications are out there to add new ones, so there's not much new in terms of new applications this cycle."

Crash fixes: Cinnamon Screensaver 6.2.0 - no changes in the screensaver itself; Cinnamon Settings Daemon 6.2.0 - no major changes; CJS 6.2.0 now uses mozjs115; Nemo 6.0.2 - same as Noble.

The Ubuntu Budgie project has announced the launch of Ubuntu Budgie 24.10 which will be supported for nine months. The new version focuses on polishing the Budgie desktop and preparing for the transition to Wayland. "Our default layout has been revised to ensure a smooth transition later to our Wayland offering. The X11 plank dock has been dropped. We have now the budgie-desktop dock styled with our Pocillo theme. The top-bar defaults to a dark bar theme. We now support the Apple image format .heif – such images can be seen through gThumb, Nemo and can be set as a wallpaper via budgie-control-center We now support the Jpeg-xl format .jxl – again such images can be seen through gThumb, Nemo and can be set as a wallpaper via budgie-control-center In 24.04 external DEB packages were installed via gdebi; gdebi has now been dropped in favour of the updated snap-store that handles side-loading of DEB packages. Due to Tilix receiving very little maintenance bugs are creeping in without any resolution upstream." Additional information is provided in the project's release announcement.

The Xubuntu team has released version 24.10 of their distribution which will be supported through to July 2025. The new version ships with the 4.19 development branch of the Xfce desktop. "The Xubuntu team is happy to announce the immediate release of Xubuntu 24.10. Xubuntu 24.10, code-named Oracular Oriole, is a regular release and will be supported for 9 months, until July 2025. Xubuntu 24.10 features the latest updates from Xfce 4.19, GNOME 47 and MATE 1.26. For Xfce enthusiasts, you'll appreciate the new features and improved hardware support found in Xfce 4.19. Xfce 4.19 is the development series for the next release, Xfce 4.20, due later this year. As pre-release software, you may encounter more bugs than usual. Users seeking a stable, well-supported environment should opt for Xubuntu 24.04 instead. Highlights: Xfce 4.19 is included as a development preview of the upcoming Xfce 4.20, it features early Wayland support and improved scaling; GNOME 47 apps, including Disk Usage Analyzer and Sudoku, include a refreshed appearance and usability improvements."

The Lubuntu team has published a release announcement for Lubuntu 24.10, an interim release which will receive nine months of support. "Lubuntu 24.10 is the first release of Lubuntu to ship with a primarily Qt 6-based environment. Previous LXQt releases used Qt 5. Due to this upgrade, modern Qt 6-based apps such as the latest versions of VirtualBox, qBitTorrent, and more will now be themed similar to the rest of the desktop. Qt 5 app theming also still works, allowing you to continue to use apps that haven't caught up with Qt 6 yet. Lubuntu-specific applications (namely Lubuntu Update and the Lubuntu Installer Prompt) have also been updated to use Qt 6. The Calamares installer continues to use Qt 5 however. We expect to switch Calamares to using Qt 6 for Lubuntu 25.04. For a while now, Lubuntu has been using the Breeze theme from KDE Plasma. While this has worked well enough for a while, it has had some incompatibilities with LXQt crop up before, and this cycle it happened again. Rather than continuing to make a KDE component work where it wasn't really designed to, Lubuntu 24.10 now ships with Kvantum theming." Though there were plans to enable Wayland by default in this release, the project experienced too many issues with the Wayland session and have decided to used X11 by default until Lubuntu 25.04.

The Ubuntu MATE team have announced the release of Ubuntu MATE 24.10. This version includes the MATE 1.26.2 desktop, reverts to the Slick Greeter applications, and reduces the ISO size by almost an entire gigabyte. "Here are the highlights of what's changed since the release of Ubuntu MATE 24.04: ships stable MATE Desktop 1.26.2 with a handful of bug fixes; switched back to Slick Greeter (replacing Arctica Greeter) due to a race condition in the boot process which results the display manager failing to initialise; returning to Slick Greeter reintroduces the ability to easily configure the login screen via a graphical application, something users have been requesting be re-instated; Ubuntu MATE 24.10 ISO image is now 3.3GB, down from 4.1GB in the 24.04 LTS release - this is thanks to some fixes in the installer that no longer require as many packages in the live-seed; accompanying MATE Desktop 1.26.2 and Linux 6.11 are Firefox 131, Celluloid 0.27, Evolution 3.54, LibreOffice 24.8.2."

The Kubuntu team have announced the release of Kubuntu 24.10, a short-term release version which offers nine months of support. The new release features KDE Plasma 6.1 and defaults to using a Wayland desktop session. "The Kubuntu team is happy to announce that Kubuntu 24.10 has been released, featuring the new and beautiful KDE Plasma 6.1 simple by default, powerful when needed. Under the hood, there have been updates to many core packages, including a new 6.11 based kernel, KDE Frameworks 5.116 and 6.6.0, KDE Plasma 6.1 and many updated KDE gear applications. Kubuntu has seen many updates for other applications, both in our default install and installable from the Ubuntu archive. Applications for core day-to-day usage are included and updated, such as Firefox and LibreOffice. The Plasma Wayland session is now the default option in sddm (display manager login screen). An X11 session can be selected instead if desired. The last used session type will be remembered, so you do not have to switch type on each login." The release announcement offers additional details.
