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-1.sh.gz to download a compressed archive with the script. Once it is downloaded, open the terminal emulator and use the cd command where the file was downloaded and uncompress it with the following command:
$ gzip -d unity-1.sh.gz
- It's time to make the file executable:
$ chmod +x unity-1.sh
- Run the script with sudo:
$ sudo ./unity-1.sh
- Reboot your computer and "ubuntu" should be listed.
Other tweaks
It is recommended that you also install Unity Tweak Tool to disable the online features of the Dash, which are
a serious privacy concern.
To install it, open the terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and type:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:freyja-dev/unity-tweak-tool-daily sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install unity-tweak-tool sudo apt-get install unity-webapps-common
Done! You might want to remove the PPA after installing.
If you want Trisquel to look even more like Ubuntu beyond the Dash, open Tweaks (or maybe it's called System Settings in English) and change the Appearance to Ambiance and the icons to Ubuntu-mono-dark.
