Windows to Ubuntu 9.04
My Windows box is slowly dying, so I decided to try using my Linux box as my main machine. I copied over my Thunderbird and Firefox profiles and viola - my e-mail, feeds and newgroups are working! There were a couple hiccups, like Yahoo! News is "99b0bbe5", which I just have to rename.
Here are a few simple things I did to customize it to my liking:
System > Preferences > Appearance
Theme: Clearlooks
/usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
style "default" {
GtkScrollbar::slider-width = 18 # Make scrollbars a touch larger
GtkMenu::vertical-padding = 4 # Even out spacing for top and bottom menu items
}
/home/Mike/.inputrc
"\e[A": history-search-backward # simply begin typing and press up-arrow to search history
"\e[B": history-search-forward
set show-all-if-ambiguous on # Stop having to pres tab twice to see all command completions
If I can get Photoshop working in Wine, that would be the ultimate.
