Alright, so I am a first time linux user. By this I mean I have never even seen a linux machine before. I figured I would give it a whirl to expand my technical knowledge yada yada and to try something new.
I have a clean install of ubuntu 5.10 (gnome) up and working great, as a matter of fact that is what I am typing this on now.
This is all great but now I have no idea what to do. I want to customize and add some of those neat widgets that I see in screen shots that display things like cpu useage etc. What other programs do I need? Could you guys give me some essential software I need? What are some neat things I could do with this new linux box?
*Also, I am still not even sure how I would go about installing a program
