Tricks

As part of the fun of reinstalling an OS, you need to set up all the small things again (and you also get rid of all the small things you had set up and that you don’t need any longer…). This message is mainly a note to self about how to move windows between screens on Ubuntu with a key combination, found at stackexchange: Install CompizConfig Settings Manager: sudo apt install compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-plugins-extra Run Compiz from the dash Click Window Management Enable the Put plug-in (select the check-box) Click on Put Configure the shortcut for Put to next Output (click enable)....

Yet another note to self on how to fix things in Ubuntu after a fresh install, found at askubuntu, this time to remove the standard bookmarks in the Nautilus file browser. I use a different setup of folders, and don’t really need these unused bookmarks. I wish it could have been easier to just right-click and delete to remove them (like for your own bookmarks), but it turns out to be a bit more tricky....
