Ubuntu 10.04.2

Ubuntu is a complete desktop Linux operating system, freely available with both community and professional support.

This release includes updated images for the desktop, alternate installation CDs and DVDs for the i386 and amd64 architectures. Numerous updates have been integrated, and updated installation media has been provided so that fewer updates will need to be downloaded after installation." Here is the release announcement.
