The distance between the Windows and Linux operating system looks set to shrink in a consistent manner as a result of Microsoft's decision to integrate Canonical and Ubuntu, one of the most popular Linux distributions, Windows 10. The news has not yet considered official, but it is It has been confirmed by sources close to Canonical to ZDnet site. Food for thought there, since no one would be the simplest option to use the BASH shell of Linux in Windows 10, but a genuine integration of Ubuntu in Windows 10.
According to reports from the source, in fact, the Ubuntu operating system will not simply running as a virtual machine, or it will be a simple command-line interface running BASH, it features already exploited through programs with Cygwin or MSYS. Full details will be revealed at the conference Build which will start today (but the announcement could take place in any of the three days of the conference). One of the hypotheses is that Ubuntu will be able to operate "on" Windows exploiting the new Linux subsystem spotted at the end of January in a build of Windows 10 Redstone.
E 'right to point out that, on the basis of the first description provided by the source, it seems that the novelty talk first to the community of developers and not the final user, since it defines how unlikely the Unity user interface integration Ubuntu; the focus, on the contrary, will be the interpreter of the Bash command and other CLI (command line interface tools). Theoretically, in the light of the new integration between Ubuntu and Windows, it might be possible to run a Linux GUI, such as Unity, GNOME or KDE, but would not this the essential purpose of the collaboration between Microsoft and Canonical.
For the moment, it should not go too far in the feedback of a partnership whose contours and whose purpose will emerge clearly in the course of waiting Build Conference in 2016.
