General Notes

This is an Unofficial Ubuntu 5.04 Starter Guide. It is not associated with Ubuntu and Canonical Ltd.
Guide is tested on a full installation of the Ubuntu 5.04 x86 Install CD (Hoary Hedgehog)
If you see black box, means you have to execute the commands in Terminal mode (Applications -> System Tools -> Terminal)
To reduce typo mistakes, copy and paste the commands into Terminal mode (right click on the commands -> "Copy" or "Paste")
"sudo" means superuser do. "sudo" will prompt for "Password:". Please specify user password
If you are tired of typing "sudo" all the time, switch to root user by issuing "sudo -s -H" followed by user password
If you are tired of typing "apt-get" all the time, Read How to apt-get the easy way (Synaptic)?
"apt-get" and "wget" requires Internet connection to install/update/download programs
To download file, right click on the link -> Select "Save Link As..." -> Make sure file name and extension are correct
Some multimedia applications may not load/produce sound, Read How to configure sound to work properly in GNOME?
