This time I tried to switch to the legacy mode in my BIOS and Ubuntu 22.04 finally booted. To install Ubuntu 21.04, I wrote the ISO to my USB with the help UNetbootin app. In brief, Ubuntu refuses to boot from a USB if you simply write the ISO to a USB with the dd command or with some popular apps such as Etcher and even Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator. This problem still exists in Ubuntu 22.04. I described this issue in my Ubuntu 21.04 review. I had a problem with installing Ubuntu 21.04 in the EFI mode last year. If you have tried games in Ubuntu 22.04, please share your experience in the comments below. But I do not play games and cannot confirm that. Given this new driver and the new Kernel 5.15, I have heard that Ubuntu should also perform much better in games. I use the new Nvidia graphics 510 driver and I encountered zero issues with it. Wayland is now the default and it works much better than in Ubuntu 21.04. I especially appreciate the possibility to switch between three different power modes which are also available in the status menu for a quick switch. New Appearance, Multitasking, and Power settings are probably the most prominent ones. There are many improvements in the Settings app. But I assume Canonical wants to transition to snap 100% eventually, so maybe it is ok to have these duplicates for now. I would prefer to have two install buttons: one for snap and another for a deb package. Right now, you get two entries for these two types of software delivery. Maybe I would only like to have a little better indication of deb and snap packages. After more than 10 years of observing the development of the Ubuntu Software Center, I can say it is finally as good as I would like it to be. Navigation, searching for apps, installation, everything works fine. I have to emphasize that the Software Center is finally lightening fast. There is also a fine-tuned activities view.

It has a new horizontal app launcher with a horizontal workspace switcher. Ubuntu 22.04 is based mostly on GNOME 42. There is a new Yaru theme and I particularly like its dark version.

When you have a first look at Ubuntu Jammy Jellyfish it is a breath of fresh air. I do appreciate all the work that has been done by Canonical to release this version of Ubuntu.
