So, ladies and gentlemen, I present you a small overview of the programs needed for the newly installed Kubuntu.
I'm very lazy, so I use GNU / Linux, not Windows.
I warn you that methods of installing software may be uneconomical in terms of traffic consumption.
I have checked everything offered to your attention, but I am not responsible for any problems that may arise after
calling Satan to execute commands.
And I will add that it is possible - not even a unix-way!
Well then -
There is - freshly installed Kubuntu.
How are we going to put the program? Through the console, friends, through the console. After all, then you can just copy the commands and press Enter.
Italics and callout mean that you need to write it in the console.
And typed
in bold, you need to enter in the launch programs (Alt + F2).
Red color indicates program names.
To get started, go to Menu-Add / Remove Programm. Click the "Software Sources" button and poke ticks everywhere. On the second tab, remove the CD-ROM and mark two other sources (the program’s web is fresh, however)
It should look like this:

')
And the rest of the repositories (this is the software source) will be added directly to the file as follows.
Press Alt + F2 and enter:
kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list
Now we’ll go back to “Add / Remove”, enter
Yakuake in the search menu, tick and “Check changes” (well, translation)
Menu - System - Yakuake
We press F12 and in the best traditions of Quake we see the long-awaited console:

So, there are tools - let's get down to business.
What did I need for concentrated happiness? Of course, the
mirror, bills and magic powder access to data in the past system. Yes, my second system is Windows XP, of course, I have ntfs partitions. I want not only to copy from them, but also to write on them. The program for writing to ntfs is also built in - called
ntfs-3gThe way to use it number 1 is to go into the fstab file and set the parameters. I'm lazy.
The way to use it number 2 is to install the frontend for ntfs-3g:
sudo aptitude install ntfs-config
Run:
sudo ntfs-config
And we put two jackdaws:

It may happen that the data on hard drives are used by other applications, for example, like mine - I forgot to turn off the music:

Now we will set up switching of layouts on Ctrl + Shift.
Open the file:
kdesu kate /etc/X11/xorg.confAnd we rule the “InputDevice” section to the following state:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
option "CoreKeyboard"
option "XkbRules" "xorg"
option "XkbModel" "pc105"
option "XkbLayout" "us, ru"
option "XkbVariant", "winkeys"
option "XkbOptions" "grp: ctrl_shift_toggle"
Endsection
Switching layouts in the "Regional Settings and Language" - disable.
During the setup process, it was discovered that there is no great console file manager
mc in the bundle. And no less remarkable guiishny
Krusader - too. Fix it.
sudo aptitude install mc krusader
Now we will install the driver for the video card (kick with your feet) - proprietary. As we, undoubtedly, want to observe a rotating cube and other beauties. I have nVidia - something for Linux and I wish you.
Yes, we can go to the nVidia website, download the driver, install it in console mode, but for some reason I don’t want to stop listening to music. So let
Envy do it for us.
You can download it here:
albertomilone.com/ubuntu/nvidia/scripts/ubuntu/envy_0.9.8-0ubuntu13_all.debShe pulled some terrible amount of dependencies for herself, but found almost everything on the installation disk. It looks like this:

What, black screen? .. Haha, you got caught!I hope everything went well :)
Now go to the very effects.
sudo aptitude install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager
compiz-core compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra emerald
Menu - Settings - Advanced Desktop Effects Settings
Hooray! Beauty! * mentally humor "vendekapets" and call the owners of Vista to be jealous of guests *
Do not forget to put
superkaramba to overtake and overtake in all respects, but seriously, you always have access to important data:
sudo aptitude superkaramba
Since Ktorrent was not idle, I had a lot of movies and music.
Amarok is good for a big music collection. If you need something more bright - then
Audacious .
Amarok, when launched, politely asks you to install mp3 codecs. Intuition tells me that most of the Russian music will be displayed in your cracker. Well, even if you ate, you have two choices. Same here.
The first way is to convert the encoding of music by the easytag program, and to convert all the music that comes back to you in heretical cp-1251 coding, too. And all because the creators of Amarok said that utf will rule the world (from version 1.4). I do not like it, very sorry that the freedom of choice was removed.
Since the music comes to me quite often, and the player and the phone are generally naughty with encodings, we will choose the second way - we will teach Amarok to understand cp-1251. To do this, you will need to tell aptitude where to get the updated library.
Open the list of repositories:
kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.listInsert the repository:
deb
rusxmms.sourceforge.net/ubuntu/rusxmms dapper main
Save the changes:
sudo wget rusxmms.sf.net/ubuntu/rusxmms/key.gpg -O - ​​|
sudo apt-key add - sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install libtag1c2a
Re-scan the media library.
We will meet with one more mistake if we want to use the wonderful
MusicBrainz service to find out the true face of the tags hiding under the mask of
“The Unknown Artist” :

Seven troubles - one answer:
sudo aptitude install libtunepimp5-mp3
Less than six months, as we listen to music. The effort was worth it. Amarok is a thing!
Now watch the video.
I don't really like the built-in Kaffein, I like
smplayer .
sudo aptitude install smplayer
In addition, he pulls codecs with him.
So far I have not had problems with any films.

From the multimedia entertainment were still pictures.
To begin with, let's add to the installed powerful, IMHO, heavy
Gwenview photo compression and other goodies:
sudo aptitude install imagemagick
And then we put a quick and
dead simple
Kuickshow image
viewer :
sudo aptitude install kuickshow
As well as a djvu file
reader called
djView :
sudo aptitude install djView4

/ What am I missing?
Oh, woe is me, because I forgot to put my really favorite browser -
Opera !
Add a repository:
deb
archive.canonical.com gutsy partner
sudo aptitude install opera
Put xneur , analogue of Punto Switcher:
deb
gq.net.ru/ubuntu gutsy xneur
sudo aptitude install xneur kxneur
Add two archivers, often found in the open spaces of the network:
sudo aptitude install unrar-free p7zip
Startup authors, as well as people who are confused in their thoughts and problems, will certainly need
kdissert :
sudo aptitude install kdissert
In the past, I had subjects like termeh, theories of machines and mechanisms, etc. Monster AutoCad was awesome. I really missed a simple program -
QCad .
sudo aptitude install qcad

Now briefly, but for the soul.
kstars is an astronomical program, I'm just delighted with it - put it and look.
sudo aptitude install kstars
Gramps - compilation of pedigree, as it turned out, this is a very exciting experience. However, no one bothers to create a pedigree of distributions here;)
sudo aptitude install gramps

And a very short guide for those who do not want to read all the nonsense above:
Alt + F2
kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.listAdd the following lines:
deb
rusxmms.sourceforge.net/ubuntu/rusxmms dapper main
deb
archive.canonical.com gutsy partner
deb
gq.net.ru/ubuntu gutsy xneur
Menu - System - Terminal:
sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude install ntfs-config mc krusader compiz

compiz-fusion-plugins-extra emerald superkaramba libtag1c2a

I sincerely hope that my article has helped you.

I will be glad to any corrections and additions.
