| inteunity-#ubuntu-se | <reply> Ubuntu 11.10 använder normalt sett GNOME 3 med skalet !unity.

| nounity | <reply> Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 and up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | jrib Added on: 2011-10-13 15:04:36 Last edited by rww Last modified: 2014-01-21 03:56:58 Requested 171 times |
