Things to do after a "fresh" install of Ubuntu 11.10

Also, there are nice notes at techdrivein.com

Update!

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade


Restricted extras

Media formats etc.

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras


Compiz config settings manager

sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager

Enable GetDeb ppa

Provides fresher versions for certain apps (might be less stable, but fix some bugs).

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:getdeb...FIXME
sudo apt-get update

XBMC media center

At the moment there is no stable version for 11.10 in the xmbc ppa, but there is another place to get it:

sudo add-apt-repository ...
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc
