What it takes to make Ubuntu ready for use
I recently installed Ubuntu 6.10 on a new PC at work. In this post I will document all the steps I had to perform to get it ready for everyday use. Each step is assigned a level of difficulty, which I define below:
1. Install Ubuntu
Difficulty Level: Very Easy
Description:
Ubuntu has one of the easiest install procedures of any operating system. I simply booted to the LiveCD, clicked on the "Install" icon and followed the simple wizard. It only took about 15 minutes to complete the install. You can even surf the net while the operating system is being installed.
How it can be improved?:
2. Enable additional software sources
