What Do You Do After A Fresh Install?

With only one day until the release of Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope), I guess it's time ask the traditional question - What Do You Do After A Fresh Install?

Every six months the answers vary just a little. Here's my list for Jaunty in no particular order:


- Enable automatic GDM login
- Change the theme to Dust
- Disable audio preview in Nautilus
- Enable backspace in Firefox
- Set downloads to "Close it when all downloads is finished" in Firefox
- Import Firefox bookmarks
- Enable Multiverse Repositories
- Install ubuntu-restricted-extras
- Install Gstreamer Extra Plugins
- Install applications I use --> Advanced CCSM, Ubuntu Tweak, Wine, Skype and Word 2007

If you have any other things that you do after installing a fresh copy of Ubuntu that you would like to share, then please leave a comment!
