This article mainly explains "how to configure Ubuntu15.10 after installation". The content in the article is simple and clear, and it is easy to learn and understand. Please follow the editor's train of thought to study and learn how to configure Ubuntu15.10 after installation.

This article introduces you to some of the configurations I made after installing Ubuntu 15.10.

1. Learn about new features

Although Ubuntu 15.10 Wily Werewolf is not a subversive feature update, it does bring a number of functional features and user experience improvements, which have been introduced in the previous Ubuntu 15.10 new features article and will not be discussed here.

two。 Update the system

Although it is the latest release of Ubuntu 15.10, there are still some system and software updates that need to be done after installation, which is not surprising in the Linux world. We can directly click install now in the software updater to update.

3. Install the Linux graphics card driver

To achieve better Ubuntu display performance, it is necessary to install the appropriate graphics card driver so that the Ubuntu desktop can run smoothly, and after installing the Linux graphics card driver, you can also get the best frame rate in games and multimedia applications.

Ubuntu currently supports open source drivers for most graphics hardware, and drivers for Ubuntu 15.10 can be installed in software and update-add drivers.

4. Install the media codec

Due to legal restrictions, Ubuntu can not directly integrate popular media codecs such as MP3 to allow users to use them right out of the box, but this problem is easy to solve. We can directly search Ubuntu restricted extras in the Ubuntu Software Center for installation.

5. Adjust menu

When we open an application or window in Ubuntu 15.10, the menu appears at the top by default (for a few seconds) and then automatically hides, and the menu appears again when we move the mouse focus to the top bar. This function can save display space and reduce the operation interference to the user.

If you don't like this feature, you can adjust it to the title bar of the window in system Settings-appearance-and adjust the menu bar to the display of the application window instead of the top bar.

6. Dealing with Flash issu

Although there is a wave of abandoning Flash on the Internet, there are still some websites that need to use Flash. But Adobe announced a few years ago that it would stop Flash support for Linux, and many browsers have announced that they are abandoning the NPAPI architecture.

For now, I recommend that you use Google Chrome browser because the latest version can handle Flash plug-in issues very well.

7. Get a good-looking skin.

Since the default theme of Ubuntu has not changed much over the years, it always feels like there is not much change and innovation, which makes our Ubuntu display more monotonous. Therefore, it is also recommended to change to a better theme after installing Ubuntu 15.10.

If you only want to change the desktop background of Ubuntu 15.10, you can change it in system Settings-appearance.

8. Manage privacy

When we search for files in Unity Dash, there is always data about applications, online results, and important files. If we do not want the data containing personal information to appear in the search results, we can choose to turn it off.

In the system Settings-Security and Privacy File and Application selection Card, choose to close and remove the data types that you want to disable from the search results. If you do not want to display online search results in Unity Dash, simply disable online search results in the search tab.

9. Install the required applications

Although Ubuntu 15.10 has built-in famous applications such as LibreOffice and Firefox, these apps may not be your favorite and common ones. The Ubuntu Software Center provides us with a large number of free applications, including:

◆ Steam-Game Distribution platform

◆ GIMP-A useful image editor

◆ VLC-a very popular international media player

◆ Geary-Desktop email client

◆ Chromium-an open source Web browser from Google

◆ Skype.-I don't need to introduce this.

Of course, some of the software I personally recommend are as follows (not included in the Ubuntu Software Center):

◆ Google Chrome-there is no need to introduce this

Popular streaming music service under ◆ Spotify for Linux-Linux

◆ Corebird-Linux Desktop Twitter client

◆ Lightwork-industry non-online video editor

An alternative to ◆ Viber-Skype

◆ Vivaldi-Web browser for developers

10. Install Sogou Input

Sogou Linux input method version 2.0, jointly developed by Ubuntu Kylin team and Sogou Company, was officially released on October 16, 2015, with functions such as support for double spelling, intelligent pinyin, automatic matching, and diversified skin support.
