    Hey folks, this is my first blog post. I figured I’d post a tutorial on how to install Microsoft Office 2010 in Ubuntu 12.04. This blog post is as much for you as it is for my future reference for the next time I format my PC LOL.

    This is tested on Ubuntu 12.04 Beta 2 64bit and the latest stable release of wine 1.4.

     

    1. Open Terminal.

    2.  Run the command:

    WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=/home/jsebean/.wine32 winecfg

    The above command will setup a 32bit wine prefix. Once winecfg appears, just close it out (leave it on Windows XP) and don’t change any settings.

    3.  Next, run this command:

    WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winetricks msxml3 msxml6

    The above command will run the winetricks script to install msxml3 and msxml6. When you first run it, it will take you to download.com to download msxml3 and then place in a folder that it will open up. Once you download it and place it in the folder run the above command again, and you will run the installers for the two.

    4.  Next, run this command to install Office 2010.

    WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine '/path/to/Office/2010/file/or/cd/setup.exe'

    Change the path above to your CD drive to the setup.exe or, in my case, I only had the setup file on a thumb drive, so for me it was the path to my thumb drive. Then run the installer like you normally would (enter product key, enter name, choose the office apps to install, etc).

    5. Once installed, you will need to do one more thing before you run Office. Run this command:

    WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winecfg

    And click on the libraries tab. Once there, in the add box, type in “riched20.dll” (without quotes) and click add. Then, in the list click riched20 and click Edit then choose Native (Windows).

    Once you do that, apply your changes and that’s it. Have fun with Office 2010 in Linux

    1) Run the following command in your terminal

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:invernizzi/google-docs-fs
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install google-docs-fs
    2) Once the installation is complete, logout and login again
    3) Open Nautilus and Create a folder named "Drive" in your Home Folder

    4) Open your terminal, and type

    gmount Drive Táto e-mailová adresa je chránená pred spamovacími robotmi. Na jej zobrazenie potrebujete mať nainštalovaný JavaScript.
    replace gdrive with your Google Drive username
    5) Enter your Google Drive Password
    You now have your Google Drive mounted in Ubuntu. This is unofficial but usable before Google releases an officical app for Google Drive.

    Kubuntu Linux has the root account disabled by default for security purposes. Users are encouraged to use the sudocommand as an alternative whenever root-level priviledges are needed.

    Now, maybe I’m too old-skool, but that’s just plain irritating. Here's how to enable root logons in Kubuntu.

    Edit the kdmrc file

    The first thing you need to do to enable root logons in Kubuntu is to modify the/etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc file. However, to change this file - guess what? - you need root access! Here’s how to do it:

    1. Press alt+F2 to call up the Run Command. Type in /etc/kde4/kdm to call up the kdmfolder in Konqueror.
    2. When the folder opens, you should see a file called kdmrc. Right-click it and selectActions, Edit As Root. You’ll be prompted for the root password (which should be your own password)
    3. The file should open up in a text editor (KWrite on my installation). Broswe for the lineAllowRootLogin=false and change false to true. Save the file and close it.

    Enabling Root Logins (Modifying the Root User Account)

    The second step here is to actually enable the root account for login, because it is disabled by default. There may be a quicker, more linux way to do this, but this is my method:

    1. Press alt+F2 to call up the Run Command. Type in kuser to start up the KDE User Manager.
    2. Double-click on the root entry to bring up the account properties and uncheck theAccount Disabled checkbox. Click OK to save the changes.
    3. Exit the KDE User Manager.

    And that’s it! If you log off, you should now be able to login to Kubuntu as root.

    Why Enable Root Logins?

    Yes, I know that in an ideal world I would use sudo. Why did I absolutely require root access? Well…

    1. I don’t know Linux very well. I can hold my own, but I don’t speak the command-line-lingo like the pros.
    2. Elements of the GUI in Kubuntu don’t work so well. In particular, the network configuration utility ‘forgets’ the default gateway entry.
    3. Some graphical tools also have an Administrator Mode button. I found in some instances that this didn’t work. You would type in credentials and it would return you to the same greyed-out screen, indicating that authentication had been rejected. Very frustrating.
    4. Being fairly unfamiliar with Linux, I didn’t know the command equivalent for these graphical functions, so I couldn’t very well sudo them, could I?
