Ubuntu Linux OS For ARM-powered Devices

Canonical will be working on an Ubuntu Linux desktop operating system version that targets ARM’s Cortex-A8 and Cortex-A9 processor architectures in particular. Since it was revealed recently that ARM’s technology could see action in netbooks of the future, it makes perfect sense to come up with this platform-specific operating system. There is no word on which netbook will carry this operating system yet, but we do know that the Ubuntu ARM distribution for desktops and netbooks will “be officially available from April 2009.”
