Install Unity Qt (2D) on Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04 using PPA
To install Unity-Qt open your terminal and execute the following instructions in the same order.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:unity-2d-team/unity-2d-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install unity-2d-default-settings
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Next time you log in, select Unity-Qt from the options of Environments.
Hope that helps.
Try Unity Desktop on Ubuntu 10.04/10.10
Ubuntu has finally announced that it is going to end GNOME as Ubuntu’s Default desktop environment and has also said that Ubuntu 11.04 will have Unity Desktop Environment which was default for the Ubuntu Netbook editions. I’m not really happy with this change. Unity is light weight, yes. But still not a good choice for a desktop version. Ubuntu is working on a better Unity version for desktop. Hope that would be better. If you want to try Unity Desktop Environment in your Ubuntu 10.04/10.10, then just log in to terminal and type the following code :
<blockquote>sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook</blockquote>
Post your views on this change.
