Revision of How to install the Unity Desktop environment and create the session entry on Trisquel 7.0 from Tue, 02/03/2015 - 22:52
The revisions let you track differences between multiple versions of a post.
Trisquel 7.0 have unity on its repositories but, for some reason, the "unity-ubuntu" session won't be listed and therefore unable to be launched easily.
Installing unity
To install unity just open a terminal and do the following:
$ sudo aptitude install unity
Using the script to create the desktop entry
The easy way to create the entry is by using the following script. Just follow the instructions to do that:
- Click on unity.sh.gz to download a compressed archive with the script. Once it is downloaded, uncompress it:
$ gzip -d unity.sh.gz
- It's time to make the file executable:
$ chmod +x unity.sh
- Run the script with sudo:
$ sudo ./unity.sh
- Reboot your computer and "ubuntu" should be listed.
