Ubuntu settings

Andrew Buldyzhov March 2, 2018

This article contains mainly the useful stuff I found in the Internet, but there are some things which I developed myself. This is my cheat-sheet, in order not to search the web again. If it turns out to be useful for somebody else, I will only be glad. These settings were made for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Here’s the previous version for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: Ubuntu16_settings.txt
Here’s the previous version for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: Ubuntu18_settings.txt
