From ubuntu-eee to Easy Peasy

Step by step tutorial, my two cents :).

1. Search and replace " hardy" with " intrepid" in the /etc/apt/sources.list file:

$ sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

Vim-Tips: :%s/ hardy/ intrepid/g

2. At the bottom of sources.list, add the following repositories:

# Easy Peasy
deb http://packages.ubuntu-eee.com intrepid main
# OpenOffice 3
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main
# Netbook kernel
deb http://www.array.org/ubuntu intrepid eeepc
# Netbook remix
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/netbook-remix-team/ubuntu intrepid main

3. Update && dist-upgrade:

$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade

Answer 'yes' and wait...

4. Install other packages, some of these are already installed in your system:

$ sudo apt-get install eeepc-config eeepc-tweaks ubuntu-eee cheese go-home-applet \
human-netbook-theme maximus netbook-launcher window-picker-applet skype picasa \
songbird adobe-flashplugin lock-keys-applet gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-pitfdll \
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly \
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse libavcodec-unstripped-51 libmp3lame0 sun-java6-plugin unrar

5. Remove f-spot and rhythmbox ... if you want! :)

$ sudo apt-get remove --purge rhythmbox f-spot

6. Remove orphan packages:

$ sudo apt-get autoremove

7. Finished! Enjoy and have a cup of tea! (lemon tea... ;))
