=== General Notes ===

* Ubuntu allows a user to accomplish tasks from either a menu-driven [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_user_interface Graphical User Interface (GUI)] or from a text-based [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface command-line interface (CLI)]. In Ubuntu, the command-line-interface terminal is called Terminal, which is started: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal. 
 Text inside the grey dotted box like this should be put into the command-line Terminal.
* Many changes to the operating system can only be done by a User with Administrative privileges. 'sudo' elevates a User's privileges to the Administrator level temporarily (i.e. when installing programs or making changes to the system). Example:
 sudo bash
* 'gksudo' should be used instead of 'sudo' when opening a Graphical Application through the "Run Command" dialog box. Example:
 gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
* "man" command can be used to find help manual for a command. For example, "man sudo" will display the manual page for the "sudo" command:
 man sudo
*While "apt-get" and "aptitude" are fast ways of installing programs/packages, you can also use the [[#Synaptic Package Manager|Synaptic Package Manager]], a GUI method for installing programs/packages. Most (but not all) programs/packages available with apt-get install will also be available from the Synaptic Package Manager. In this guide, when you see 
 sudo apt-get install ''package''
you can search for ''package'' in Synaptic and install it that way.
*Many instructions use the text editor "nano" (which is universally available in Linux). However, it is often easier to use the text editor "gedit" in Ubuntu instead.
*"Applications" means the bottom-left (or upper-left) button, akin to the Start button in Microsoft Windows.
*If you are using the 64-bit version, replace any "i386" with "amd64"
