As of yesterday, those using Ubuntu 17.10 daily builds on their computers have probably noticed that there’s a completely revamped control center when they clicked on the wheel icon in the system menu in the system tray area. And it’s nothing like the old Ubuntu Control Center used in previous releases. The new Ubuntu Control Center is a slightly revamped version of the GNOME Control Center of the forthcoming GNOME 3.26 desktop environment launching tomorrow, September 13, 2017, and it features an all-new navigation system with all sections listed on the left side of the window at a glance.
