\nSetting up an old machine that I recently pulled out of storage (2 years in Vancouver!?\u00a0 Poor little box).<\/p>\n

Step one is to update the Ubuntu theme to Elegant…\u00a0 or should I stick with Equinox w\/ squared Dawn borders? Well, that’s your choice. Here’s some very simple instructions for both of them.\u00a0 I’d recommend Equinox first, as Elegant has a one-button solution which can activate or restore previous settings.\u00a0 Just tested it and it works just fine.<\/p>\n
