Giving Ubuntu Edgy a Edubuntu feel

**kcallis** · January 4th, 2007

I installed Ubuntu 6.10 on my daughter's PC. At that point, I started adding all sorts of apps, etc. including the stuff placed by Automatix. In retrospect, I should have installed Edubuntu instead of the standard Ubuntu, but a little too late for that... So, is there anyway to take a standard Ubuntu installation, and give it the look and feel of having a Edubuntu distribution? It would be nice if there were a simple script that would do a massive apt-get and do the job, but I could only wish!

Code:

sudo aptitude install edubuntu-desktop

Code:

stephen@deepthought:~/.kde$ aptitude search edubuntu
p   edubuntu-artwork                - edubuntu themes and artwork
p   edubuntu-artwork-usplash        - edubuntu artwork for usplash
p   edubuntu-desktop                - edubuntu desktop system
p   edubuntu-docs                   - documentation for edubuntu systems
p   edubuntu-menus                  - group-driven menus for Edubuntu
p   edubuntu-server                 - edubuntu servers

I guess you should get the edubuntu-artwork package as well in that case.
