Don’t fret – here are 10 things to do after installing Ubuntu 13.10.** - -We put together a post-install checklist for every release of Ubuntu, but as new features arrive and improvements are made, the steps we suggest change and alter. - -So what are the best things to do after upgrading to Ubuntu 13.10? - -### 1. Get Up To Speed ### - -While Ubuntu 13.10 packs in fewer user-facing features than previous releases the effect of the new Smart Scopes Service is hard to miss. - -### 2. Enable Additional Drivers ### - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/drivers.jpg) - -Ubuntu supports a vast array of hardware right out of the box. But while the free, open-source drivers that make this possible are increasingly capable you may find that performance less that ideal for playing games on Steam or streaming HD video. - -If so you may want to **install and enable any proprietary drivers** listed in the Software & Updates tool. - -Open the Software Sources app via the Dash (or through System Settings) then click through to the ’Additional Drivers’ tab and follow the on-screen prompts. - -### 3. Install Media Codecs in Ubuntu ### - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/mus.jpg) - -Due to a big tangle of legal issues Ubuntu is unable to play many popular audio and video formats ‘out of the box’. It’s an inconvenience born of necessity. - -But installing what’s needed is only a couple of clicks away. During installation you can tick the ’*Enable Restricted Formats*’ box to have the required codecs pulled in, or – if you forgot to do that – you can install everything needed to get media working from the Ubuntu Software Centre. - -- [Install Third-Party Codecs][1] - -### 4. Set Up Your Social Life ### - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/account-toggles.jpg) - -Facebook, Twitter, Google Talk, Gmail and a heap more social accounts can be set up in one go using the *Online Accounts* hub. - -Just add an network then **decide which applications can use it**. For example, stop Empathy firing up Google Chat by default, and filter our Facebook from the Social Lens. - -Services supported include Twitter, Google, Yahoo!, Facebook (including Facebook Chat), Flickr, and a growing number of others. - -### 5. Add Additional Apps ### - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/apps.jpg) - -Ubuntu offers a lot of neat apps by default but one size doesn’t fit all. If you don’t like a certain app, or find yourself missing something else, you can easily add more software. - -Fire up the Ubuntu Software Centre to browse thousands of free applications, including popular choices like: - -- **Dropbox** - Popular, cross-platform cloud storage service -- **Steam** – Game distribution platform -- **GIMP** – Advanced image editor -- **VLC** – Popular media player - -You’ll also find a wealth of additional software listed on sites like ours – check out our Apps tag for some ideas. - -- [View App Posts on OMG! Ubuntu!][2] - - -### 6. Protect Your Privacy ### - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/priv.jpg) - -Privacy is a hot-potato these days, so it’s great to see that the latest release of Ubuntu improves its Privacy offerings with a new look and a handful of extra options. - -Whether you want to hide a folder or app from appearing in the Dash, restrict access to your computer after waking up, or choose what data about system crashes is sent back to Canonical, the Privacy & Security pane is where you’ll find all the tools you need. - -### 7. Embrace The Web ### - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/gmails.jpg) - -Canonical are enticing web devs with word that websites can be easily packaged, integrated and made available for install on Ubuntu Touch. - -The genesis of this approach has been included on desktop Ubuntu for a few releases. Over 30 popular websites – including Gmail, Yahoo! & Rd.io - can seamlessly integrate with parts of the desktop. - -For example, add GMail and you get fancy Gmail options in the Launcher and Messaging Menu; enable Rd.io and you’ll be able to control playback using the Sound Menu. - -### 8. Make Unity Yours ### - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/unity_tweak_tool_310.png) - -Unity is more customisable than people think. *Unity Tweak Tool* is a third-party app that lets you adjust the Unity desktop experience to suit you. - -Options include: - -- Adjust launcher transparency -- Set launcher icon animations -- Enable workspaces -- Configure shortcuts -- Move window controls - -And no, before you wonder, it won’t let you move the launcher. - -- [Install Unity Tweak Tool from Ubuntu Software Centre][3] - -### 9. Filter The Noise ### - -Ubuntu’s new ‘Smart Scopes’ service promises to be a handy tool, but at present it’s just not as smart as it claims. - -The good news is that feature can be switched off with a click, so there’s no need to avoid using Ubuntu altogether. - -If you find yourself facing a wall of obscure music results or obtuse shopping suggestions every time you search for something unrelated you can disable each offending scope individually. - -![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-Shot-2013-10-15-at-11.36.26-750x480.png) - -If you find yourself flooded with irrelevant music results for every search disable the music scopes. Don’t want Amazon suggestions? Switch Amazon off. - -### 10. Spread The Word about Ubuntu 13.10 ### - -This item on our to-do list is cringe-worthy, I know. But the only way people are going to try out Ubuntu 13.10 is if they know about it – so do your bit and share news of it. - -Whether you just post this post to Facebook, or make a LiveUSB for your OS X-loving partner, you’ll be helping raise awareness of Ubuntu. - -Don’t forget to enjoy using it, too. Go check your Facebook profile, listen to some music, and do a bit of surfing in Firefox. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/10/10-things-installing-ubuntu-13-10 - -译者:[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对:[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译,[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[1]:https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/ubuntu-restricted-extras/ -[2]:http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/category/app -[3]:apt:unity-tweak-tool \ No newline at end of file
