Tired of installing additional software on every machine people ask me to put Ubuntu I have created some packages that do all the tricks. There are some settings to do (such as enabling new apt-get sources and updating) so that install these packages will be the only thing I'll have to do on new machines.
They are:
- apt-sources package
To enable skype repository and dapper universe and multiverse repositories
- desktop package
Installs my dear tomboy, mono (I can't live without .NET anymore even on Linux), and much more desktop applications
- multimedia package
Installs codecs and multimedia applications that I use for default
- network package
FTP client, IRC client, skype, avahi (zeroconf or rendevouz protocol) and much more
- laptop package
Enable acpi, cpu frequency control applet, wi-fi applications, avahi, bcm43xx utilities to make Broadcom chipsets work - this package was built primarily for Acer Aspire 3003
- development package
.NET developing tools (monodevelop, monodoc, xsp), Eclipse (with Java, python, C and C++ development add-ons)
Soon I'll publish them here ... as soon as I can make the apt-sources package actually do something ( hehehe, for now it's only a dummy package)
