Ultimate Edition

Ultumix UE or Ultimate Edition

The Recently we added more games for the Gamer Edition so have fun!

Now I'm not quite sure if all of these programs are necessary but I know some of them will come in handy and this list is taken directly off of a top 10 like list of Ubuntu GNU/Linux apps. I figured what better way to figure out what apps to ad to Ultumix? I just looked at the most popular ones.

Instructions to install:

1. Burn the .iso to a DVD and put it in the drive of an Ultumix GE computer or install aptoncd. (also will work with other Ubuntu based operating systems but we are not responsible for what happens)

2. Open aptoncd (if using Ultumix GE just click the blue K menu, Settings, System, AptonCD).

3. Click Restore.

The following are in the 0.0.1.4 Ultimate Disk but not the 0.0.1.5. Download both to get all of the Ultimate Extras.
