Ubuntu20.04 experience and beautification

Ubuntu20.04 beautification and experience#

Windows has been used for a long time, and it is good to replace the system. After ubuntu20.04 is optimized, it is quite comfortable to use.

System Configuration##

1. Modify software source###

Ubuntu is a foreign software source by default, we can manually switch to the domestic one, and select the domestic mirror in [Software & Update].

2. Update system

# Update the local package database
sudo apt update
​
# Update all installed packages (you can also use full-upgrade）
sudo apt upgrade
​
# Automatically remove unnecessary packages
sudo apt autoremove

3. 4 K high resolution screen adaptation

I installed ubuntu 20.04 with vmware, vmware will automatically adapt its own graphics driver. The resolution is not 4k by default. You need to manually set the screen resolution. However, after I installed it directly on the physical machine, ubuntu automatically recognized the high-resolution screen and adapted it.

4. Chinese input method###

Someone recommends installing Google Pinyin, and I installed the ibus that comes with it here.

sudo apt install ibus-libpinyin 
sudo apt install ibus-clutter

Search "Language Support" and make sure the Keyboard input method system is IBus.

Restart the system.

Search Settings->Region & Language> Input Source and add [Chinese(Intelligent Pinyin]).

4. Terminal

Personally, I don't know how to use zsh, because command not found often appears in the process of using zsh, and the bash environment is not imported by default. I am too lazy to toss. Ubuntu's built-in is quite easy to use, just change the background color.

Tango dark themes are as follows:

5. install software###

Usually, apt install directly, if it is a deb file, you can do this

sudo apt install ./<file>.deb

WeChat qq does not have a linux version, but deep-wine-ubuntu can support it, but it doesn't work well, so I don't need it.

NVIDIA Graphics Driver###

The open source driver installed by default can be modified to the official NVIDI.

In Addtional Drivers in software & update, just choose the latest one.

1. Install tweek

sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool

# Let gnome support plugin extensions
sudo apt install gnome-shell-extensions 

# Chrome browser extension support, you can use the browser to install plug-ins
sudo apt install chrome-gnome-shell

Open the extension store with chrome browser, address: https://extensions.gnome.org/

For example, to install the user theme plug-in, click the icon off->on. It will let you confirm whether to download and install it.

The plugins I installed:

2. Install themes###

I download the theme McMojave https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1275087/

I downloaded the icon
McMuse icon theme https://www.gnome-look.org/s/Gnome/p/1348081

After downloading the theme, unzip it and place it in the ~/.themes directory.

After downloading the icon, unzip it and place it in the ~/.icons directory.
