Ubuntu:12.10 on Acer Aspire Revo R3610 @Nov 18, 2012 3:18:41 PM
I have just replaced the Hitachi 160GB 2.5" SATA disk with a Kingston 96GB 2.5" SSD.
Create a boot SDHC using a computer with network access to download the desktop ISO and an SDHC adapter. System Tools -> Administration -> Startup Disk Creator When booting the Revo, press F12 to select to boot from USB card reader. I dislike Unity: $ sudo apt-get install gnome Log-off, and at the log-on prompt select "Gnome clasic (no effects)" from the little splat-menu by your username, and log-on. I want propper scroll-bars: $ gsettings get com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode Enable trim and disable writing atime to preserve SSD life: $ sudo gedit /etc/fstab And add the options discard and noatime to the partitions on the SSD, like this: UUID=22c6bea7-d2e6-49fe-8668-102170ebc58b / ext4 discard,noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 I want the day and date displayed in the indicator in the menu-bar: $ gsettings get com.canonical.indicator.datetime show-date
