Default [Lifehacker] Easy Desktop Customization with Ubuntu Tweak


Quote:
Ubuntu Linux only: Ubuntu Tweak is a small customization tool that gives you a single access point to some of the interface and file browsing options tucked away in Ubuntu's advanced preferences or text configuration files. Along with a few of the more common Compiz Fusion and interface preferences, Ubuntu Tweak lets you enable useful functions for CD burning, easily enable and change splash screens, make advanced power management changes, and even lock down certain tools for security reasons. Experienced users may know how to change a lot of things in this app, but for new installs, and new users, it's a time saver. Ubuntu Tweak is a free download for Ubuntu Linux systems.

This is nice.

One thing I dislike about Linux is how there really isn't a central "control center." There's the DE's control center, which controls mostly GUI stuff, but some admin stuff (devices, etc.) Then you got little programs like NetworkManager and the package manager that are all independent of each other, but they do system things.

I guess this is one reason I really like Suse and its Yast control center. It's something that centralizes system settings. I can go there instead of working with independent programs here and there.

I realize that isn't what this program is, though. I guess I went off topic lol

I tried this, but you really can't do too much.

The hidden settings aren't too hidden, and there are not too many useful settings in there.

I don't think I ended up changing anything.
