Medibuntu, Because Life Can Be Wonderful

At the entrance of William de reojo we saw a jewel called Medibuntu, but from my point of view not stressed as much as it deserves, so here goes entering? Depth?.
What is Medibuntu? Simple and simply about repositories where you can find all these free and not free packages that can not be distributed in the official repositories problems by licensing, patent and other legal issues nationally and internationally. In an ideal world, these packages would not? Palatable? for users, but unfortunately there are still occasions that we are obliged to use proprietary software.
Apart from the convenience of having all these third-party applications to a click, Medibuntu makes life easier for the intrepid who have 64-bit systems, since all the packages are ready for use on this platform. In other words, no longer need to go through the web looking 64-bit versions of Acrobat Reader, Google Earth or Skype, because they are available in this repository.
In addition to these three applications (Intel 32-bit versions, 64-bit Intel and PPC) packages star codecs are capable of viewing DVD smoothly and codecs for almost all other types of audio and video owners (WMA, WMV, mov ?), Of course also available for any of these three platforms.
On the other hand we have a compilation of players like Amarok, Kaffeine or Mplayer, whose packages are available on Ubuntu? Cap? by legal problems, and from here we can easily install. Finally, we have other packages as loose components to work with AMR and FAAC, an uncensored version of ffmpeg and hot-babe, a program for? I leave it for yourselves that you can discover.
Although the help page that you can find on the wiki Ubuntu is quite explanatory, as in English is going to save you the trouble and detallaros the installation of this repository in Ubuntu 8.04:
First let's add repositories: we are going to a terminal, copy / paste this command and give it to enter.
sudo http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list wget-O / etc / apt / sources.list.d / medibuntu.list
Now, let's add the key GPG of these archives, so that our system is not complaining. The same, in a terminal:
sudo apt-get update walk sudo aptitude install medibuntu keyring-foot sudo apt-get update
It is already prepared, now only remains for us to add packages through System-> Administration-> manager Synaptic package or through the terminal with our preferred utility. The most interesting packages are called as follows:
Libdvdcss2? For DVD playback.
Non-free-codecs? For the rest of codecs owners, all platforms.
Acroread? Acrobat Reader, installed plug-acroread if you want to have all the extras
Mozilla-acroread? The plugin to view pdf within Firefox!
Googleearth? The latest version of the most spectacular application of Google.
Skype? Guess?
Mplayer, amarok, Kaffeine, k3b, ffmpeg? The full version and unrestricted free of these applications. If you had and is updated automatically.
Hot-Babe? Exam?
Remember that if you only interested in free Medibuntu applications, namely those that are not included in Ubuntu 100% by restrictions in some countries only, you can find instructions in the Ubuntu wiki. For example, the library needed to read DVD remains illegal in the U.S., but in Spain and other countries.
