Control your Ubuntu using Ubuntu Control Center

[Tested on Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10] Do you want something easier to manage Ubuntu? Yup, you can add a Control Center where it'll help you to do some task like Software Management, Hardware, Network and Internet, System, Local Disk and Account preferences. So how to install it?



1. Open Ubuntu Software Center and install Font Manager.

2. If your Ubuntu is 32 bit, then open your terminal and copy paste this code:
wget http://ucc.googlecode.com/files/jstest-gtk_0.1.0-1~getdeb1_i386.deb
wget http://ucc.googlecode.com/files/ucc_03_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
sudo apt-get install -f

And if your Ubuntu is 64 bit, then open your terminal and copy paste this code:
wget http://ucc.googlecode.com/files/jstest-gtk_0.1.0-1~getdeb1_amd64.deb
wget http://ucc.googlecode.com/files/ucc_03_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
sudo apt-get install -f

3. Everything is done! You can access it from Application>System Tools> UCC. Nice!

Or if you want to download and install it manually, here is the place:

Download font-manager : http://code.google.com/p/font-manager/downloads/list

Download Jstest & UCC : http://code.google.com/p/ucc/downloads/list

[updated] I've found that sometimes you can't found font manager in Ubuntu Software Center. It's easy, just copy this to terminal to add the ppa:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tldm217/tahutek.net
sudo apt-get update

And now you can found font manager from Ubuntu Software Center :)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tldm217/tahutek.net

Happy customizing!
