    New Ubuntu Lucid Proposed Kernel    
    The Ubuntu kernel team has prepared a new proposed kernel for Lucid (2.6.32-25.43), containing a large number of fixes. This is a larger number of updates than we would usually push at one time, but processing of the upstream stable updates was delayed by a couple of security updates. This kernel should fix a lot of issues, including this one that people have been asking about a lot. You will get this automatically if you have updates from lucid-proposed enabled.

    Call for testing, Gwibber (Lucid and Maverick)    
    Today is the day affectionately known as “Twitter’s OAuthpocalypse”. Twitter is shutting down basic auth completely, which Gwibber has relied on.
