We’ve already seen how Ubuntu 11.10 compares against the upcoming Windows 8 operating system. Now, as Ubuntu 11.10 has been released, we’re pretty sure that some of you have already downloaded it on your system. If you’re new to Ubuntu and are feeling disoriented after a fresh install, read on as we cover the 7 things that you need to do after installing Ubuntu 11.10 “Oneiric Ocelot”.1. Enable Restricted Drivers

2. Learn Unity Shortcuts

3. Dress it up

4. Install New Apps

5. Tweak it

sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-managerTo open Compiz Config Settings, just search for ‘ccsm’ from the launcher. Once installed, CCSM will let you tweak Unity any way you want. You would easily be able to change the transparency, launcher behavior and much more. One word of warning though, changing any of those settings might affect the stability of your desktop in a negative way. 6. Enable Quicklists on Chrome

7. Tell your friends about it

Here are 10 essential Android widgets you must put on your home screen:News and Weather Widget

Rarely comes a human being who influences the lives of millions if not billions of people from around the world. It goes without saying that everyone, including his rivals, secretly admired Steve Jobs. Google, one of Apple’s closest competitors right now, wrote a simple tribute on its homepage, linking directly to Apple’s website. Even Bill Gates, who was his career’s biggest rival, had the following words to say: “Steve and I first met nearly 30 years ago, and have been colleagues, competitors and friends over the course of more than half our lives. The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come. For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it’s been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely.”Steve Jobs was a man who has inspired a generation, not only with his technology, but also with his tenacious spirit. Despite facing many failures in his career, he kept coming back, even during times when death was looming over his head. The comeback man was unstoppable until the sad day came when he had to resign as the CEO of Apple. We recommend you check out brief article we wrote about Steve Jobs. Today however, we leave you with a few of the most memorable and inspiring videos of Steve Jobs. He may not be with us today, but his touch of class still remains as the core part of the technology we use at the moment. Steve Jobs’s Stanford Commencement Address

Don’t be disappointed though, as the scenario is slowly changing with the London Stock Exchange recently switching to Linux. Also, Linux boasts of developers who come from all walks of life, thus, there are a few applications that will come in handy for those who are into stock market and investing who prefer to use this platform. In this article, we’ll highlight 3 of the best stock market software for Linux. JStock

The free and open source application comes with support for 26 world stock markets. Countries include U.S, U.K, China, Canada, Brazil, Hong Kong, Germany, France, India and many others. JStock makes it easy for you to monitor the stock market with its slick indicator that grabs public data from Yahoo! Finance.Besides keeping you updated with the latest stock figures, JStock also allows you to monitor stock price movement in second’s precision. The stock price is captured every 10 seconds on a daily basis. If you’re interested in only a select number of stock markets, you can create separate watchlists for your convenience. JStock allows you to create unlimited number of such watchlists.JStock also lets you manage your stock portfolio by calculating your net stock worth, recording your buy and sell record. To remind yourself about a particular stock you’ve your eye on, you can put a sticky note next to it. Not just that, JStock also allows you to create and manage an unlimited number of portfolios. The best feature of JStock, which puts it a notch above its competitors, is the alerts system. Suppose if you’re monitoring a particular stock, and let’s say you want to sell it when it reaches a particular buying/selling point. Either you can sit at your computer all day monitoring the numbers, or you could sit back, relax and let JStock do that for you.

Unlike Windows, where you're clumsily right-clicking the tray, indicator applets allow you to interact with multiple applications at once without clicking more than twice. Now, if you take a look at the top panel, it looks much more uniform, with properly spaced icons and easy-to-navigate menus. As Canonical has released the API out in public, many developers have come up with some nifty indicator applets. So, if you don't know which ones to try out first, here are some of the best indicator applets out there for Ubuntu:Caffeine:

Many tech enthusiasts are excited about Google’s latest endeavor, and those who have tried it are going gaga about it. However, calling Google Wallet a success at this point would be quite premature. As with high expectations, there are rising doubts about the service’s policies. The doubts and criticisms are from Google’s competitors as well as many of its users who are rightfully concerned about their privacy. As of now, there aren’t any visible flaws in the service, but considering Google’s bad history with users’ privacy, many people are wary about trying it, because after all, their money’s involved here. Only time will tell whether Google’s new attempt at freeing people from bulky wallets will succeed or not. If you, like anyone else, are excited about Google Wallet, read on as we discuss the service in a little more detail.What is Google Wallet?

Do I have to buy a Nexus S for that?

At the moment, yes, as Google Wallet only works on Nexus S 4G (Sprint). However, in the future, Google will be adding support for other phones as well. And don’t worry if you don’t have an NFC-enabled phone; Google will be manufacturing special NFC stickers which will help you use Google Wallet on any kind of smartphone. Google has also hinted that the service will work across non-Android phones too as they’ll be partnering with RIM and Microsoft to make their product available for everyone. Where will it work?

As of now, Google Wallet is in its infancy, though that doesn’t mean that it won’t work anywhere. Google Wallet payment system can be used in RadioShack, McDonald’s, BP, Best Buy 7-Eleven, Subway and many other major brand outlets across America. Google plans to partner with more brands as the service matures, but don’t expect the service to be available worldwide anytime soon. Google Wallet and the story behind it

Privacy, Security, doubts and apprehensions

Will Google be able to pull it off?

Linux users don’t expect their distro releases to be received with as much pomp as Windows or Mac OS. However, with Unity and the amount of improvements it has gone through, there’s a certain sense of excitement amongst Ubuntuers. Furthermore, even though Ubuntu 11.10 isn’t a LTS release, it is a critical release for the folks at Canonical. Oneiric Ocelot is Ubuntu’s golden chance to covert users back to the contentious Unity interface. For Microsoft, the stakes seem to be high this time. Unlike then when it enjoyed a complete monopoly over the tech industry, Microsoft’s billion-dollar enterprise has taken huge visible hits thanks to the growing dominance of Apple and Android. Linux, which Microsoft once thought was over and done with, has proven itself to be a palpable threat to Microsoft’s server and mobile departments. Though Windows 8 and Ubuntu 11.10 differ hugely from each other, both in ideology and in design, they bring in a lot of similar features taking the competition up a notch. Here’s a quick comparison between the similarities in Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows 8:Brand new interface

Both Ubuntu and Windows 8 will sport a brand new interface. While Windows 8 will be using the tile-based Metro UI, Ubuntu will be using the tried, tested, criticized and condemned Unity interface. The tiled Metro UI is a huge step forward for Microsoft as it makes it easier for them to adapt Windows on smaller form factors. Microsoft, decimated by the rapid growth of mobiles and tablets, has finally admitted that the standard desktop is breathing its last. Canonical on the other hand, saw this coming way before Microsoft. I won’t be naïve as to accuse Microsoft of blatantly ‘copying’ this approach, but considering what they’ve been doing in the past, I won’t be surprised even if they actually did that. Unity, as the name suggests, will make Ubuntu easy to adapt and use on devices other than desktops and laptops. Thus, users will get the same experience across all of their devices. Apple too is slowly taking this approach by adding certain iOS-like features on their desktop operating system.Windows 8 Metro UIUbuntu Unity Desktop as you know it is dead

With Windows 8, Microsoft will do away with the traditional desktop. Of course, not entirely, but we’ll certainly see more and more people using the new interface. This will ensure that users can switch seamlessly between their different devices. Now, it may be too early to predict these things, but my opinion is that once Windows 8 is released, and if it gets successful, we may actually see a growth in Ubuntu’s market share. Windows 8’s Metro UI will do what Canonical and GNOME 3 are trying to do, that is, move people away from the dogmatic desktop UI. This will liberate many users from the conformity and push them to try out new and different things. Unity can cash in on this opportunity by further polishing their Unity UI so as to make it more appealing to new users. Social from the start

Ubuntu, for a long time, has included essential social media features in its default desktop. Microsoft on the other hand, was lagging behind in this department. With Windows 8 though, things are about to change as the new Metro UI includes social media capabilities built-in. To be honest, up until now, the social media experience Gwibber 2.0 provided wasn’t at par with the apps that are out there on Windows and Apple. With Gwibber 3, Oneiric users can proudly boast about how social-savvy their new desktop is. More cloud integration

Windows 8 and Ubuntu 11.10 will both be tightly integrated with the cloud. Windows 8 will be able to pull photos from the cloud, share and upload them instantly. Ubuntu 11.10 on the other hand will feature Ubuntu One online backup service with 5 GB cloud storage leaving behind Microsoft in the cloud wars. Updated Default browsers

App Stores

New login screens

Both Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows 8 will include a new and improved login screen. They both are beautiful, but I still prefer the clean new LightDM login screen. Microsoft’s opening up? Think again

Ubuntu 11.10 “Oneiric Ocelot”, Ubuntu’s latest version featuring GNOME 3 and an improved Unity has arrived. This is not an LTS version but an important release for Canonical as it is still reeling from the backlash it received for involving Unity. Ubuntu 11.10, titled Oneiric Ocelot, comes with a lot of new features and improvements many Ubuntuers have been waiting for. We’ve already seen how Ubuntu 11.10 compares against the upcoming Windows 8 operating system. Now, as Ubuntu 11.10 has been released, we’re pretty sure that some of you have already downloaded it on your system. If you’re new to Ubuntu and are feeling disoriented after a fresh install, read on as we cover the 7 things that you need to do after installing Ubuntu 11.10 “Oneiric Ocelot”.1. Enable Restricted DriversEven though Ubuntu runs flawlessly on most of the modern computers, there are some proprietary drivers which you need to install to run Ubuntu 11.10 to its fullest potential. For example, folks who use computers with NVIDIA and ATI graphics card will need to install third-party drivers in order to run Unity 3D. To do so, just open your launcher (Tap the Super key) and search for the term ‘Additional Drivers’. There, you’ll find a utility that will let you install those drivers. Just follow the instructions, and restart your computer to enjoy Ubuntu in its full glory.2. Learn Unity ShortcutsUnity is Ubuntu’s new interface that was introduced 6 months ago. Even though the interface is not that complicated, there are a few tricks you can learn to make your usage even more efficient. Unity relies heavily on keyboard shortcuts, and once you master a few of them, it will definitely help you make your workflow smoother. Oh, and don’t worry about going through those creepy manpages to do that, there’s a simple wallpaper you can put up on your desktop to teach you those shortcuts without killing you with boredom. 3. Dress it upUbuntu 11.10 comes with a whole new set of wallpapers that make Ubuntu one of the most enviable desktops around. Just right-click anywhere on the desktop and start exploring various themes and wallpapers that come pre-installed on your Ubuntu.4. Install New AppsOneiric Ocelot features a completely redesigned Software Center that will make your app experience even better. Start exploring the Software Center to find an app that suits your need. Ubuntu’s new store also features some great paid applications and games that are definitely worth your hard-earned cash. 5. Tweak itDon’t like the default look? Ubuntu lets you customize the Unity interface any way you want. To do that, you’ll have to install Compiz Config Settings Manager (CCSM) first. Here’s how to do that:sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager

Battery WidgetAlthough Android's top bar shows you the battery level, many people prefer to have the battery status in percentage. Battery Widget is a small widget that you can drop on your home screen to show you the exact battery level every time you unlock your phone. Clicking on the widget opens up a small menu allowing you to access detailed stats and settings for Battery, Display, GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Battery Widget is not installed by default but is freely available for download from the Android Market. Power Control WidgetThis is another pre-installed widget that just makes things a lot easier. Once dropped to the home screen, you'll see a rectangular bar with icons for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Syncing and Brightness (may vary with different models). Just click on the individual icons and you can turn on/off the respective features instantly. As for the brightness button, clicking it allows you to toggle between different levels of brightness. This is an app that should always be on your main home screen.Music WidgetMany Android devices stock with a single button headset; thus, controlling music quickly becomes quite difficult. That's where the music widget steps in. Once dropped to the home screen, it allows the user to Play/Pause the track by the touch of a button. You can also switch to the next track. What's more, the track's name and artist's name are displayed on the same bar. Google Search WidgetThis is another widget that comes pre-loaded with most of the Android devices. On select devices it allows you to search directly by voice. Just enter your query in the search box and results show up instantly (depending on your Internet connection)Evernote WidgetIf you're an avid Evernote user, this little widget will be indispensable for you. Once you install Evernote, you can use the two widgets that come along with the application. The smaller version of the widget comes in the form of a long bar which allows you to quickly add notes (both voice and text), photos and also allows you to search through your notes. The larger version of the widget shows a preview of the 2 or 3 recent notes you uploaded. This is a great addition to the home screen if you want to be more productive. YouTube Widget If you're a YouTube user, this widget will load a quick preview of your subscriptions the moment they are updated. Also, you'll be able to quickly search through millions of YouTube videos by clicking just one button on the home screen. There is also a quick link to the camera so that you can shoot a video and instantly upload it to YouTube. This widget comes pre-installed in most of the Android devices. Analog Clock Widget If you don't carry a watch along, then this widget will help you keep track of time by putting a sleek analog clock on your home screen. Usually comes out-of-the-box in many Android devices.Google Plus WidgetIn our earlier articles, we've written a lot about Google's new social network Google Plus. It has instantly become our favorite social network. So, if you're an avid user of G+, the Google Plus widget will allow you to quickly post notices, upload pictures and view your photo gallery. The widget looks really sleek and can easily fit on crowded home screens. G+ widget comes pre-installed with the official Google Plus app for Android. Twitter WidgetThis widget, which comes with the official Twitter app allows you to keep an eye on your Twitter stream right from your home screen. The smaller version of the widget allows you to simply view a slideshow of your Twitter stream whereas the slightly larger version comes with shortcuts that allow you to quickly post to Twitter.Written by: Abhishek, a regular TechSource contributor and a long-time FOSS advocate.
