While Lubuntu 17.10 is a general bug fix release incorporating almost all the internals of Ubuntu 17.10, such as the Linux 4.13 kernel, improved driverless printing support, out-of-the-box accelerated video playback, and better Bluetooth and USB audio support, Lubuntu Next 17.10 is still a development release. During the six-month development cycle since Lubuntu 17.04, the developers managed to update various LXDE components by fixing as many bugs as possible, update the artwork, update the HardInfo tool to the latest upstream snapshot, and include the latest Audacious 3.9 as default music player application.
