Ubuntu 8.10 Install
November 23rd, 2008
Finally got my Hard Drive cleared and installed Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex).
After installation, I
- Downloaded the package updates
- Enabled the restricted NVidia drivers
- Installed Wine 1.1.9
- Installed K9copy and K3B through Synaptic.
- Installed the Flash plugin by
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
- Changed the font sizes to 9 (System > Preferences > Appearance > Fonts)
- Also changed Rendering to Subpixel Smoothing (Same panel)
- Visited Radiotime’s KISM 92.9 webpage and it (wizard style) automatically installs the three Gstreamer codecs (nice!)
and that’s it so far.
