Black Lab Linux 8.2 comes almost two months after the launch of the first point release, and while it still uses the long-term supported Linux 4.4 kernel from the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) operating system, it fixes over 270 bugs discovered during this time. Besides shipping with the latest security updates from Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS, Black Lab Linux 8.2 includes up-to-date applications and components, such as the Chromium 57 web browser, Mozilla Thunderbird 45 email and news client, LibreOffice 5.3 office suite, as well as Audacious 3.8.2 audio player.
