Exhaustive list of things to do after installing Ubuntu Linux 9.10

Good article. I have one note -- if you are using a 64 bit version and like to watch flash videos (i.e., youtube, hulu, etc.) do not turn up any desktop effects or visual effects. There is a bug that prevents you from pressing any buttons on flash videos if you have desktop effects on. It works fine with desktop effects off.

Very good stuff, but he did forget to download latest sbcl source and compile it.

This is actually a pretty decent list. I use a good portion of them on most of my Ubuntu machines. Also a few apps I had never heard of: Universal Applets and the brain stuffs.

The most important thing is missing. Drink a tasty beverage.

And install <a href="http://lxde.org/" rel="nofollow">http://lxde.org/</a> if you like a light weight desktop.
