| ubuntutweak | <reply> Ubuntu Tweak is a tool that automates some things; however, it is potentially dangerous, and an informal review of its code is pending. Most of the things it does can be done by the use of other tools. Please don't ask for or provide support for it in Ubuntu support channels. | IdleOne Added on: 2011-04-19 20:41:02 Last edited by Myrtti Last modified: 2012-03-09 22:37:31 Requested 35 times |
