I learned during the set up of this machine in Ubuntu three different ways to install software. The first was software center: I added the graphics programs and some photo manipulation programs. MT Paint was also added to edit screenshots that I posted.
The launching of LibreOffice in early 2011 made it possible to load and remove OpenOffice in the same instance in terminal. I chose to try downloading the software this way as it could do two steps at once or two steps and not worry about OpenOffice still on my computer.
During the creation of the server, Jason Bennett helped me find the DD Client that helps moderate my router traffic and settings. This was a download off the DynDNS website. Once the download was complete the Synaptic Package Manager made the necessary modifications.
I learned much in the last 4 weeks, the downloading of software still may be a concern with my slow internet connection even though I have DSL. The download of Ubuntu 10.10 was done at work as it would have taken 2 hours to download here at home. It took 12 minutes at work. So I had to adapt to my surroundings for sure.
Very helpful! Thanks.
