Ubuntu 9.04 has been released for a period of time and has not been available for trial. I have made some time to try it out in the past two days. I am using the Lenovo Thinkcentre M55P 8811-O44 desktop. The specific configuration is: intel Core Duo 2E6600, DDR2 8002GB × 2, Nvidia Quadro NVS140M graphics card, disable integrated Intel graphics card for the motherboard. All hardware is compatible and drivers do not have to be installed.

The installation configuration described in this article requires the user's computer to access the Internet. All software packages mentioned in this article require network support for software source updates.

1. Modify the update source and update the system

Backup source list

Sudo cp/etc/apt/sources. list/etc/apt/sources. bak

Modify source list

Sudo gedit/etc/apt/sources. list
In the text editor, Replace "cn. archive" in the sources. list file with "" and save the file.

Update System

Sudo apt-getupdate
Sudo apt-getupgrade
Sudo apt-getdist-upgrade

When you use apt-get to install the software, it will start from the Internet (at sources. the software package used for download from the specified site in the list file. The package will be stored on the local machine at/var/cache/apt/archives /. After a long time, it will become very huge and occupy a lot of hard disk space. To clear this directory, run sudoapt-get clean. There is also an automatic cleanup function that only clears useless or incomplete software packages: sudo apt-getautoclean. In this way, you can still use the downloaded software when you reinstall it, instead of downloading it online.

2. Set the Chinese Environment

Set the Chinese environment of the system

Choose System> System Management> Languagesupport from the main menu )". If you select the Chinese language interface during installation, the system automatically prompts you to download and install the Chinese Language Pack. Otherwise, select "Chinese" in the "Supported languages" list and change the default language to "Chinese) select Enablesupport to enter complexcharacters, and then download and install the Language Pack. After the installation is complete, restart the computer and the interface has become Chinese.

Set Chinese support for document viewer Evince

Sudo apt-get installxpdf-chinese-simplified xpdf-chinese-traditionalpoppler-data

Simplified Scim Chinese Input Method

I am desperate to keep the system clean, so I am intolerable to many simplified and traditional input methods installed by default in the system. I only keep the intelligent Pinyin input method.
Sudo apt-get removescim
Sudo apt-get installscim-pinyin

Add the lunar calendar display function

The date and time display provided by the Ubuntu system is very simple, that is, the system's built-in functions are weak, and we need more powerful functions, to display the lunar calendar, the number of weeks, and some festivals.
Sudo apt-getinstall lunar-applet

3. Install the video card hardware driver

Choose system> System Management> hardware driver ". Ubuntu automatically starts to find available drivers, and selects the graphics card driver you want to enable (pay attention to the version), Ubuntu will automatically install for you. After the installation is complete, follow the system prompts to restart the computer. (The display setting tool that comes with Ubuntu cannot correctly identify my Dell display. X installed with the video card driver can be identified, but the English version is supported .)

Wine: Microsoft Windows Operating Platform

The official Ubuntu 9.04 source contains Wine 1.01. The installation command is as follows:
Sudo apt-get installwine

The official Wine website provides two editions: version 1.01 (stable version), version 1.1.24 (test version), and version 1.01 (English version, version 1.1.24 is installed in the Chinese environment. To Install Version 1.1.24, go to http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html. Download the corresponding version and install it:

Sudo dpkg-iwine_1.1.24 ~ Winehq0 ~ Ubuntu ~ 9.04-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
If the Chinese software is installed in Wine, garbled characters are frequently encountered. The solution is as follows:
1. Copy the Chinese font "~ /. Wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts/"folder;

2. Modify the Registry File "~ /. Wine/system. reg ", command: sudo gedit ~ /. Wine/system. reg. In the window, in [Software \ Microsoft \ WindowsNT \ CurrentVersion \ FontSubstitutes:
"MS Shell Dlg" = "Tahoma"
"MS Shell Dlg 2" = "Tahoma"
Changed:
"MS Shell Dlg" = "SimSun"
"MS Shell Dlg 2" = "SimSun"
Then save the disk and exit.

3. Save the following content as font. reg and run it on the terminal:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ WindowsNT \ CurrentVersion \ FontSubstitutes]
"Arial" = "simsun"
"Arial CE, 238" = "simsun"
"Arial CYR, 204" = "simsun"
"Arial Greek, 161" = "simsun"
"Arial TUR, 162" = "simsun"
"Courier New" = "simsun"
"Courier New CE, 238" = "simsun"
"Courier New CYR, 204" = "simsun"
"Courier New Greek, 161" = "simsun"
"Courier New TUR, 162" = "simsun"
"FixedSys" = "simsun"
"Helv" = "simsun"
"Helvetica" = "simsun"
"MS Sans Serif" = "simsun"
"MS Shell Dlg" = "simsun"
"MS Shell Dlg 2" = "simsun"
"System" = "simsun"
"Tahoma" = "simsun"
"Times" = "simsun"
"Times New Roman CE, 238" = "simsun"
"Times New Roman CYR, 204" = "simsun"
"Times New Roman Greek, 161" = "simsun"
"Times New Roman TUR, 162" = "simsun"
"Tms Rmn" = "simsun"

(In the preceding example, the simsun font can be replaced by any Chinese font)

Install GUFW Firewall

Sudo apt-get installgufw

Camera Installation

The camera has not been supported very well in Ubuntu. It is manifested in two aspects: 1. Incomplete drivers; 2. Unstable drivers. For example, it can be identified in 8.04, it won't be recognized when it reaches 8.10, and may be recognized again when it reaches 9.04. In short, can your camera be recognized in the next Ubuntu version? Pray! I installed the Logitech quick watch camera this time, which can be identified in Ubuntu 9.04. You can install the famous Cheese in Linux to test the camera. The command is as follows:
Sudo apt-get installcheese
After that, you can find the "Eggplant Big Head sticker" tool under the "graphics" menu of "application.

Install skype Network speech software

Sudo dpkg-iskype-debian_2.0.0.72-1_i386
After that, you can find the "skype" tool under the "Internet" menu of "application.
