So, I’m getting comfortable with my new Ubuntu installation, and have a lot of apps to find equivelants for that I used in Windows, as well as just configuring things. Eventually I’ll compile a big list, but here’s what I have so far:
- Pidgin – for IM/chat (supports Gtalk too!)
- Avant Window Navigator – this is a macosx-like dock – still configuring it, but it looks very nice
- Gimp – had to change the background, so fired up the gimp to join two images for the background – it has come a long way! There’s still some things to get used to, but for the amount of actual image editing I do, I think it will be fine.
- KeePassX – I switched to KeePass for windows, trying out the linux version
- Picasa – was happy to know that my favorite image organizer is available on linux!
- Banshee – supposedly a good iTunes replacement – will see
