What U should install to your Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft (Beginning Chapter)

Filed under: Ubuntu

Maybe you already notice after installing ubuntu, there will be some app to install but what?, guess this explanation will work for you guys.. cheers :D

1.You will notice when u first install ubuntu to your PC it wont play any mp3 files, so i suggest you should install mplayer or xmms, each have their own plus,

code :
$ sudo apt-get install xmms or $ sudo apt-get install mplayer

2.Now for those who love design and often to use Adobe or Corel you might wonder would they go on my ubuntu ? the answer is yes and no, why no, that’s because you might notice that all files ended by *.exe (M$ ext) wont run on ubuntu, so you might consider for another replacement for those apps, i suggest you to install inkscape (corel like) and gimp (photoshop like),

code:
$ sudo apt-get install inkscape and $ sudo apt-get install gimp ,
now for the yes answer, cek out on point 3.

3.Since *.exe wont work, now you feel like in a small box, but wait, not all is true, you still can execute the *.exe ext with one condition, you must install emulatior for window$. Now, many can make *.exe run on ubuntu, just like this one app that called “wine”. The fact is wine doesn’t use any of M$ lib or M$ code they just simply port *.exe to your ubuntu.

code:
$ sudo apt-get install wine

4.Now, how about reading, ebooks n stuff, don’t sweat it, you can still all your activities. Now, there are xchm (chm reader), xpdf (pdf reader), Open Office writer (doc reader, but i guess in the first installation it already available).

code:
$ sudo apt-get install xchm xpdf

5.What about for 3D design-er, you might consider blender for your exchange with 3Ds Max.

code:
$ sudo apt-get install blender

This guide i implement on Edgy Eft but, i don’t think it would be a problem by implementing them to Feisty Fawn, but Remember to change / find repo list for Feisty Fawn too.
