Trying Out Ubuntu 10 04 On A Desktop PC Part Two

This blog describes the multimedia playback capabilities (both audio and video) of the standard Ubuntu 10.04 - that is, what this 64-bit OS can play out-of-the-box. Let us start with the audio capabilities first.

Multimedia - Audio Playback

It was obvious from the start that Ubuntu can handle sound - but what format? A quick peek into the /usr/share/sounds directory gave me some answers. The sound file formats that Ubuntu can handle out-of-the-box are .wav and .ogg type files. The wav format is an uncompressed PCM one while the ogg format is a lossy compressed one. Both are free formats and that is the reason they were included on a standard Ubuntu (which has a strict policy regarding non-free or propriety formats - they simply are not included).

A test was carried out by plugging in a USB drive containing several audio and video files of various formats, into the Ubuntu 10.04 PC. The USB drive was recognized by the OS and mounted automatically - an icon for that drive appeared on the desktop. The OS also obligingly open the Nautilus file browser showing the contents of the USB drive. Hovering the cursor over the various audio files on the USB drive, I discovered that Ubuntu can indeed play back wav and ogg type audio files plus it also can play back flac type audio files. This format is a lossless compressed PCM type and it is a free format (flac = free lossless audio codec) - hence it was included in the standard Ubuntu. However, out of the box Ubuntu CANNOT play back mp3, mp4, aac, m4a and ape formatted audio files. Obviously, extra non-free or propriety codecs need to be installed to handle these formats.

A quick check with the official Ubuntu 10.04 document did not help much but checking the community document on restricted formats gave instructions on which package to install in order to get support for the other audio (and video) formats. The package is appropriately named ubuntu-restricted-extras and besides the codecs necessary for play back of the other formats, also includes Microsoft TTF fonts, Java runtime environment, Flash plugin, LAME (to create compressed audio files), and DVD playback. Opening the Synaptic Package Manager, I installed this package - which took a while - mainly due to the downloading of the various TTF fonts from a busy server.

After the ubuntu-restricted-extras package was installed, another test was performed on the other audio files on the USB drive. Hovering the cursor over the files I can now play back mp3, mp4, aac, m4a and ape formatted audio files. This package indeed took care of the most popular audio formats found. By the way, I also found out that the popular Microsoft TrueType fonts (like Times New Roman, Arial, Courier New, etc) were also installed on my system - a big plus and another reason to install this package.

Another audio capability test was then performed - the audio CD playback capability. Inserting an audio CD into the drive resulted in it being recognized and mounted (a icon will appear on the desktop). A message box will also pop-up telling me that I have inserted an audio CD and asked which application to use the CD with - the default is Rhythmbox. Note that I can make this the default action also - however, for this test I accepted the default application by clicking on OK. Rhythmbox, the music management and playback software for GNOME, was launched and I was able to play the CD by clicking on the Play button. The details about the CD (album name, artist, and track/song title) was also displayed. This test confirmed that Ubuntu was indeed capable of handling audio CDs.

Thats it as far as my needs for audio playback on Ubuntu 10.04 goes. In my next blog, I will be describing the video playback capabilities of the OS, so stay tuned.

Tricking Wubi into installing Xubuntu 12 10

Xubuntu is no longer available on Wubi from release 12.10 and later - as I mentioned here: Xubuntu option to be removed from Wubi. However, there are some people that will want to try it out with Wubi anyway, so heres a way to do it.

Disclaimer: I dont recommend the technique I describe here, but it works fine if thats what you want to do.

It involves downloading two ISOs, one for Xubuntu and another one supported by Wubi. Ill choose lubuntu since its the smallest.

Dowload the smallest supported ISO: lubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso
Download xubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso (I want 64-bit, but you can use 32-bit too)
Check the xubuntu md5sum (Wubi will check lubuntu, but you need to check xubuntu).
Download wubi.exe for release 12.10
Make sure wubi.exe and the lubuntu ISO are in the same folder. Run Wubi and select lubuntu.
When it tells you to reboot, select "Reboot later".
Replace C:ubuntuinstallinstallation.iso with the Xubuntu ISO (renaming to installation.iso)
Mount the Xubuntu ISO and copy initrd.lz and vmlinuz from the /casper/ directory over the one in C:ubuntuinstall
Edit the preseed.cfg file in C:ubuntuinstallcustom-installation so that it installs xubuntu-desktop instead of lubuntu-desktop
Reboot the computer
Select Lubuntu
Watch Xubuntu install
Reboot, select Lubuntu and boot into your new Xubuntu install.

You dont strictly need to predownload the lubuntu ISO but its faster than letting Wubi do it. If you decide to use the Ubuntu ISO instead of lubuntu you do have to download the ISO beforehand (because Ubuntu defaults to the preinstalled diskimage and that wont work with this technique).

Notes:
I used the C: drive for clarity - if you install to a different drive then modify as required.
If it bugs you, you can rename the Lubuntu menu entry to Xubuntu using bcdedit or easyBCD.

Here are some screenshots for selected steps:

?

Step 3: Check Xubuntu MD5 sum

?
?

Step 5: Run wubi.exe with lubuntu in the same folder

Step 6: Select to reboot later

?
?

Step 7a: Delete the existing installation.iso

???
?

Step 7b: copy the Xubuntu ISO and rename to installation.iso

?
????

Step 8: Mount the xubuntu ISO and copy vmlinuz and initrd.lz

?

?
??

Step 9: Set it to install xubuntu-desktop

??
?

Step 11: Select Lubuntu

?
?

Step 12: Watch it install Xubuntu

Credit: I got this tip from here ironically to install lubuntu prior to it being supported by Wubi.

Update:
The original post had this line: "This technique will also likely work with other unsupported flavours e.g. ubuntu-studio". It does with one caveat. Ubuntu Studio doesnt include the package required by grub to generate the menu entries that can boot a loop mounted install (lupin-support). So it will install, but you have to manually boot it the first time from the grub prompt and then install lupin-support.

Heres how to manually boot any Wubi install:

search -s -f -n /ubuntu/disks/root.disk
probe --set=diskuuid -u $root
loopback loop0 /ubuntu/disks/root.disk
set root=(loop0)
linux /vmlinuz root=UUID=$diskuuid loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro quiet splash
initrd /initrd.img
boot

Ubuntu 8 10

Well, well, well, after a series of posts on iPhone, heres one for Ubuntu 8.10. I just went through a quick trip to see what are the new features that is directly noticeable (other than those small small version number changes!)

Tip: You can make Ubuntu interface significantly nicer by making changes to system font sizes. In laptops "Subpixel smoothing" works great. These settings gave me a nice professional look for the overall interface.

Wallpaper is definitely better than Gutsy.
As usual, networking is faster than windows.
It took my laptops ATI X200M video driver automatically. Desktop effects enabled. (I like that)
My sound card is also working fine. (Skype runs well)
Nice softer look in Human theme.
One click Shut Down menu. (I love it!)
A Shut Down dialog box is available via System -> Shut Down
Revamped Network Manager 0.7 (I wished they didnt)

This is a total disaster. Hey, I can see and edit my MAC address and MTU! Wonderful ha! I know so many home users who needs to see the MAC address of their NIC. Last time I checked, lot of users were having problems with packet fragmentation problems and MTU. I take it that changing the IP address is not so important! Because its in the 3rd tab! After MAC and after 802.1x security. This will make things really easy for novice users!

And it has absolutely NO MEMORY at all. It doesnt save any of my network settings. Is this a joke? This screenshot shows my ifconfig output and IPv4 settings. The IP address and subnet masks were all set here moments ago! When I reopen the network manager settings are all gone. Its better if they send a fix for this but this is certainly not the way to handle major releases.

Its significantly better if they kept the old Network Manager. But they just upgrade for the sake of upgrading.
USB Startup Disk
Now you can create a CD image of Ubuntu on the USB drive very easily and use that to install ubuntu.

Well thats what you see at the first glance. The only bad impression I had was the new Network Manager which is not good at all! It seems Shuttleworth is taking good features from "Apple" GUIs and integrating with Ubuntu, which is a good thing. The new shut down menu is like the one in MacOS X. And the new Disk usage bar in the installer look like the one in iTunes.

This is the iPhone disk usage bar in iTunes:

Thats it. Share your experience!

Ubuntu MATE 16 10 Yakkety Yak Gets A Unity HUD Like Searchable Menu

MATE HUD, a Unity HUD-like tool that allows searching through an applications menu, was recently uploaded to the official Yakkety Yak repositories, and is available (but not enabled) by default in Ubuntu MATE 16.10.

MATE HUD is a fork of i3-hud-menu, which weve covered recently, with a few changes:

xprop was replaced with a Python implementation;
rofi is used instead of dmenu;
rofi is automatically themed based on the current GTK theme;
the settings (including configurable keyboard shortcut) are stored in Dconf (org > mate > hud).

Slightly off-topic: Rofi is a lot like dmenu, with various improvements, like mouse support (allows selecting items using the mouse; dmenu does not). Furthermore, Rofi provides a window switcher, run dialog and SSH launcher. Check it out HERE. Youll find Rofi in the official Ubuntu repositories (15.10+).

Like i3-hud-menu, MATE HUD has some limitations, like not supporting Qt applications, Firefox, Thunderbird, or LibreOffice. It can also break the LibreOffice menu completely, as long as the "libreoffice-gtk" desktop integration package is installed. Check out our i3-hud-menu article for more information.

To try MATE HUD, you need to be running the latest Ubuntu MATE 16.10 Yakkety Yak. After installing all the available updates, you should see an option in MATE Tweak (under "Panel") that allows enabling MATE HUD:

If you cant see this option, make sure youve installed all the available updates (if youre using a repositories mirror, it may take a while until the package is synced). Alternatively, you can install MATE HUD using the following command:


sudo apt install mate-hud

Once installed, restart the session (logout/login) and enable MATE HUD from MATE Tweak.

The default keyboard shortcut for opening MATE HUD is Ctrl + Alt + Space. This can be changed using Dconf Editor, under org > mate > hud.

So, since Ubuntu has already released the Alpha3 few weeks ago, few hours ago the developers made the official announcement of the Ubuntu Beta 1!. As usual the Beta 1 comes with updated package versions + one major difference.

Starting with Beta 1, Ubuntu is letting the users download a DVD image thats about 1.5GB of size! which in comparison with the standard 4+GB ISO image.

According to the developers, this DVD image is actually the expansion of the ever growing, standard CD image thus this new DVD includes additional packages such as Inkscape, GIMP, additional language packages and more LibreOffice related files (clip-arts, templates, extension, etc) as well.

Other new features include...

*. Gnome 3.1.5 (which is on its way to the Gnome 3.2 thats going to be included in the official launch of the 11.10).

*. Major Core infrastructure feature: Now users of the 64-bit version of the Ubuntu Linux OS can install 32-bit packages without the need to use the separate "ia32-libs".

*. Kernel update to the version 3.0.0-9.15 which brings bug fixes and improvements.

As usual the Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Edubuntu, etc distributions have also released Beta 1 versions of their own which brings latest KDE 4.7 Plasma desktop and related package updates, Amarok 2.4.3, Muon software center, pastebinit support in Xubuntu are just a few to mention.

Ubuntu 10 04 Netbook Remix On An HP Mini 2140 Netbook Part 3

Now that I have Ubuntu Netbook Remix installed on my HP Mini 2140 netbook, I became aware of another thing about the HP that is different from my Lenovo S10-2 netbook, and that was the display size and clarity. At first I thought it was simply my imagination but after comparing the powered-up netbooks side by side, it became apparent that the display on the HP was very much sharper and was easier to read. It was also noticeable that the HPs screen was slightly smaller than the Lenovos - which was confirmed by the specification in the HP Mini 2140 Data Sheet. The HP has a 1024 x 576 pixels screen while the Lenovo has the normal (for a netbook, that is) 1024 x 600 pixels screen. Why this was so is not clear but the type of LCD panel used by HP resulted in the sharper and clearer display than the Lenovo - so I am not complaining :)

Another feature of the HP that differs from the Lenovo is the standard battery that came with the netbook. HP only supplies a 3-cell battery as standard while Lenovo supplies a 6-cell one. Obviously this has an impact on battery life under normal netbook usage. According to reports and reviews found on the web, the 3-cell battery on the HP was only good for about 2 hours under normal usage - compare this with an actual 4.5 hours which was actually obtained by me for the Lenovo. So, if I wanted to extend the battery life on the HP, I have to purchase the optional 6-cell battery. After making several inquiries, I discovered to my horror that such a battery cost around 25% of the actual cost of the netbook! Way to go HP! Is this your way of screwing your users? In retrospect, I should have expected this - after all, after working with HP for more than 20 years, I should know by now that HP stands for High Price.

Expect for the 6-cell battery price farce, I found several things to like about the HP Mini 2140 - which was a saving grace (else I would have just got rid of it). One, as I mentioned previously, was the sharp screen display. The other likable item was the keyboard - the keys were large and nice to use - unlike the somewhat soggy feel of the Lenovos keyboard. I also felt that the inclusion of the ExpressCard/54 slot as a nice feature to have - provided, of course, I can get actual ExpressCard/54 cards locally. As mentioned previously, I am looking for a 4-port USB ExpressCard/54 card in order to expand the number of available USB ports. More on this ExpressCard later.

Anyway, enough about the HP Mini - allow me to elaborate on my first impression of the new Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Remix (UNR) OS. The first and most noticable impression is the new color scheme (or theme). The standard brown scheme found in the previous version (9.10) has been replaced with a purple, gray, and orange theme called Ambiance. Personally, I prefer the old scheme but I could live with the new one. Fortunately the background could be easily be changed to almost anything I wish and I do have some nice images to serve as the background. This was the first thing I did on the netbook - copy my favorite images to my home folder (Pictures subfolder) and changed the background to my liking.

The next (and somewhat irritating) thing I noticed about the new UNR is that, for some reason or another, the Canonical team decided to place the windows control (maximize, minimize and close) buttons on top left side of the windows - instead of the usual (and familiar) top right side. According to reviews found on the web, the decision was to copy the Mac OS layout. It was also evident from the various posts on various user forums that this was not a popular decision. Fortunately, there is a way to restore the placement of the button back to the normal position. The procedure can be found at this link (http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/13535/move-window-buttons-back-to-the-right-in-ubuntu-10.04/).

As the HP netbook is to be a mobile device, battery life must be preserved at all time - which means that the power management utility in the new UNR must work correctly. This was tested next - the result was not very encouraging - in fact, it was downright disappointing. On my other netbook (the Lenovo S10-2), power management worked flawlessly with the UNR 9.10. When I close the lid of the Lenovo netbook, the system went to sleep. At the predetermined time it went into hibernation. With this power management I was able to make the battery last for the duration I am on the road. On the HP, closing the lid did not do anything - the only way I could put the HP netbook to sleep was to do it manually by pressing the Fn+F1 key combination. Opening the lid after manually putting the HP netbook to sleep did not wake it up - again I had to manually wake it up using the on/off button. To my alarm, I noted that it did not prompt me for a password upon waking up (as it is supposed to) - it just restored the last screen. Plainly, the 10.04 UNRs power management utility did not work as it was supposed to do.

After doing a bit of research on the web, I discovered that there was indeed a unresolved bug concerning the HP 2140 and its lid closing detection on UNR 10.04. It seems to be unique to the HP - other netbook did not seem to be affected. At the moment, it cannot be determined as to when this issue will be resolved. This fact alone put a bit of a damper for my plans for the HP Mini 2140 and I need to re-think them for my sleep-deprived netbook.

More to come ... stay tuned.

Ubuntu 12 10 Named Quantal Quetzal Release Schedule

So, the journey continues, Ubuntu 12.04 is to be released in 2 days from now, on the 26th of April, and we've already got our hands on the next Ubuntu version, 12.10. We've got the release schedule, we've got the codename, and the development is just about to begin.

Yesterday, Mark Shuttleworth has announced on his blog the codename for Ubuntu 12.10: 'Quantal Quetzal'. Quetzals are strikingly coloured birds (Wikipedia), and probably this name has got something to do with reshaping the look of Ubuntu with version 12.10. Although it isn't that easy to remember, pronounce and spell at the moment, we'll eventually get used to it rather soon. You can take a look at all the codename suggestions for Ubuntu 12.10 here.

Trying Out Ubuntu 10 04 On A Desktop PC Part One

As mentioned in several of my previous blogs, I use Ubuntu Netbook Remix exclusively on my netbooks (a Lenovo S10-2 and an HP Mini 2140). After playing around with the relatively new UNR 10.04 on the HP, I grew to like the OS - so much so that I decided to install it on a spare PC that I had around (which was mainly used for testing) and play around with it some more. The PC is built around an Asus M2N-E motherboard and the CPU I had installed is an AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+. The amount of RAM on the motherboard is 8 GB of DDR2-800. Clearly the 64-bit flavor of Ubuntu 10.04 was the choice of OS here. To top up the hardware, I also installed a ATI HD 4670 video card, a 550W power supply and a 320GB SATA hard disk. The display was an Acer 23 inch wide screen LCD. With all the hardware pieces in place, I ventured into the world of 64-bit Linux computing. This blog and more will describe my journey in that world.

After downloading the ISO image of the DVD, I burned it to a disc and used it for the installation. The actual installation was painless - the only unusual item of note is that I partitioned the hard disk manually and used ext3 filesystem instead of the default ext4. I also used my normal (normal for me, that is) partitioning scheme - i.e., a small boot partition, the root partition, a swap partition and a home partition. The reason for using the ext3 filesystem was mentioned also in my previous blog - it enables me to backup or clone my hard disk using the Arconis Home 2010 software, which at the moment can only handle ext3 type filesystem.

The first boot-up went without any problem and after logging in, was presented with the purple-colored desktop. The first thing I did was to change the screen desktop background to a more pleasing one - right-clicking on the desktop and selecting Change Desktop Background, I was presented with several choices. I selected Maraetai before sunrise as my background - at least it does not hurt my eyes as much as the default! :)

The second thing I did was un-mute my sound system, which, for some reason or other, the Ubuntu team decided to initially start off muted. I also adjusted the volume level sliders to a reasonable value. Note that the Sound Preference dialog box that appears upon clicking it, do not have the option to test the sound levels - a shortcoming which I urge the Ubuntu team to fix.

The next (and somewhat irritating) thing I fixed is the placement of the windows control (maximize, minimize and close) buttons from the top left side of the windows to the usual (and familiar) top right side.

As with my previous installation of UNR 10.04 on my HP netbook, I was prompted to update my system and it also indicated that propriety drivers were available for my system. Putting aside the drivers for the time being, I updated the system via the Update Manager - which took a while since there was a fair amount of updates that needed to be applied. Once completed a re-boot was required - this was done and the system restarted - this time it was accompanied with the Ubuntu startup sound.

The Firefox Browser

The first software I tried out on the Ubuntu 10.04 was the default web browser that come with it - the Firefox. I started it and changed my home page to news.google.com.my and then checked the installed plugins by executing about:plugins via the address bar. All the necessary multimedia and java plugins were installed except Shockwave flash-player and pdf-reader plugins.

The Shockwave flash-player plugin package (named flashplugin-nonfree) can be installed using the Synaptic Package Manager but note that this is a 32-bit plugin - the 64-bit one is still in beta and was not included in the standard installation of Ubuntu 10.04. As it is a 32-bit package, there was a lot of dependencies for it - the major ones being nspluginwrapper and ia32-libs. These are required to make the 32-bit plugin work on 64-bit Ubuntu. A lot of work to get one plugin to work - I just wish Adobe would get the 64-bit one working as soon as possible. However, the plugin worked - I verified it by playing a YouTube movie (my favorite HQ movie of Sarah Brighman singing Harem). The command about:plugins also verified that the shockwave flash is indeed installed.

The pdf-reader plugin, on the other hand, is not such a simple package to install. First the lucid partner repository need to enabled - this is done by editing the /etc/apt/sources.list file (as root) and un-commenting the two lines for the lucid partner repository. Then the Synaptic Package Manager need to be restarted and the package database refreshed by clicking on the Reload button. Alternatively, the command sudo aptitude update can be run from a console. Then a search for acroread need to be done and once found that package need to be installed. Note that this will also install the free Adobe Acrobat Reader and if you choose so, make it the default pdf type file reader. Once the plugin (and reader) has been installed, the Firefox browser has to re-started. The command about:plugins has also to be executed to verify that the pdf plugin is indeed installed - which in my case, was. In order to test the plugin I used a web page containing a pdf test document and it verified that the installed plugin worked. However, for some strange reason, the Acrobat Reader was not listed in the Applications menu list. Loggin out and then back in solved this - Acrobat Reader 9 was now listed in Applications -> Office.

Next I installed some extra essential (to me!) plugins - Adblock Plus, Download Statusbar, Webmail Notifier and Yoono (a social neworking app to mintor my twitter and facebook account). Once these were installed I now have the Firefox browser that I can use productively. In fact, I use the same setup for my netbooks and my Windows 7 workstations. Later I get my bookmarks synchronized across all my computers. I wonder if there is an application that will allow me to do so.

Next, I will check out the multimedia capabilities of Ubuntu 10.04 ... stay tuned.

UbuntOS X Theme Hadirkan Suasana Mac Di Ubuntu 12 10

Ubuntu 12.10 dirilis dengan menyertakan lingkungan desktop Gnome terbaru Gnome 3.6. Dengan engine GTK3 yang baru, penyesuaian-penyesuaian perlu dilakukan supaya sistem berjalan lebih optimal. Tidak terkecuali, sektor antar muka dengan kulit wajah yang dengan mudah kita menyebutnya theme pun perlu disesuaikan. Perlu kami ingatkan, memasang theme yang tidak cocok dengan versi GTK engine yang digunakan berpotensi memberatkan sistem, memacu penggunaan prosesor dan tidak menutup kemungkinan dapat menyebabkan sistem berhenti bekerja. Oleh karenanya, pastikan Anda menggunakan theme standart yang disertakan distro (Ambiance, Radiance atau Adwaita) dan jika ingin menggunakan theme dari pihak ketiga pastikan theme tersebut telah disesuaikan dengan GTK engine yang digunakan.

UbuntOS X theme merupakan update dari theme Macbuntu-Xii, sebuah theme yang menghadirkan suasana Mac OS X pada desktop Ubuntu Anda. Didominasi warna putih keabuan dengan kombinasi warna biru aquatic, UbuntOS X theme telah mengalami penyesuaian dari versi sebelumnya (Macbuntu-Xii theme) sehingga dapat berjalan baik pada lingkungan desktop Gnome 3.5/3.6 yang digunakan Ubuntu 12.10. Paket UbuntOS X theme meliputi theme Metacity, gtk3, gtk2, Unity, Gnome Shell dan Cinnamon.

Meski ditujukan bagi pengguna Ubuntu 12.10, UbuntOS X theme tidak menutup kemungkinan dapat digunakan pada distro lain, baik yang merupakan turunan Ubuntu 12.10 maupun distro-distro lainnya sepanjang menggunakan lingkungan desktop Gnome 3.5/3.6.

Untuk dapat menggunakan theme ini, dibutuhkan paket gtk3-engines-unico dan gtk2-engines-pixbuf terinstal pada sistem. bagi pengguna Ubuntu, paket gtk3-engines-unico secara default telah disertakan sehingga cukup menambahkan instalasi paket gtk2-engines-pixbuf. Untuk menginstal gtk2-engines-pixbuf, pastikan komputer telah terhubung dengan internet, jalankan terminal lalau ketik perintah berikut:

sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf

Untuk pengguna distro yang lain, silahkan sesuaikan cara yang digunakan untuk menginstal kedua paket gtk engine tersebut dengan metode instalasi paket sesuai distro yang digunakan.

Untuk menerapkan UbuntOS X theme, gunakan aplikasi Ubuntu Tweak atau menggunakan Gnome Tweak Tool yang dapat Anda instal lebih dulu dengan perintah berikut:

sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool

Download paket UbuntOS X theme melalui link yang kami sediakan di bagian akhir artikel ini sehingga Anda mendapatkan file ubuntosx_v.3.x.G36.tar.gz. Sebagai root, extract file tersebut dengan Nautilus atau menggunakan command line yang biasa Anda gunakan sehingga mendapatkan folder bernama "ubuntosx" yang berisi file dan folder-folder theme UbuntOS X.

Jalankan Nautilus sebagai root dengan perintah berikut:

sudo nautilus

Dengan Nautilus yang terbuka, cari file ubuntosx_v.3.x.G36.tar.gz, klik kanan lalu pilih menu "Extract...". Copy paste folder "ubuntosx" hasil extract ke direktori /usr/share/themes. Periksa dan atur permission folder ubuntosx agar dapat digunakan oleh user lain dengan mengklik kanan folder lalu memilih menu "Properties". pada jendela Properties pilih tab "Permissions", atur supaya nampak seperti gambar berikut dan jangan lupa menekan tombol "Apply permissions to..."

Jalankan Ubuntu Tweak atau menggunakan Tweak Tool, pada pengaturan theme, pilih "ubuntosx" pada opsi Gtk theme/Gtk+ theme dan pada Window theme/Current theme. Untuk melengkapi supaya tampilan lebih berasa Mac OS X, silahkan gunakan ikon Macbuntu-Xii-Icon, Macbuntu-Xii-Cursor dan theme plymouth Paw-OSX.

Bagi pengguna Ubuntu 12.04 dan Ubuntu 11.10 yang masih menggunakan Gnome 3.4 dan Gnome 3.2 silahkan menggunakan theme Macbuntu-Xii. Cara pemasangan paket Macbuntu-Xii-Icon, Macbuntu-Xii-Cursor, paket tambahan lain serta untuk mendownload theme Macbuntu-Xii GTK 3.2/3.4 dapat merujuk pada artikel ini. Untuk cara pemasangan theme Plymouth dapat merujuk pada artikel Cara mengganti theme Plymouth secara manual.

Setelah theme, icon, cursor dan theme playmouth berhasil Anda ubah, Anda dapat menyusun dan menambahkan sesi UbuntOS X dengan mengkombinasikan penggunaan Gnome-panel dan Cairo-dock sehingga tampilan desktop akan semakin menyerupai desktop Mac OS X. Untuk membuat sesi UbuntOS X silahkan mengikuti panduan pada artikel Tampilan Mac OS X Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (UbuntOS X.

Berikut adalah tampilan UbuntOSX di Ubuntu 12.10 pada sesi berbeda:
