A free, playable beta of Indie hacking simulator game 'Hacker Evolution Duality' has been made available for download for Linux users.
With Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04 long since out, and Ubuntu 11.10 stirring up excitement with every update, it's easy to forget that the 16 month old Long Term Support release of Ubuntu 10.04 remains installed on many a users computer.
