[EN] What applications do you install after a fresh installation?

[vilde]

What "extra" applications do you have on your computer?

For this to be interesting you have to know what version orbv graphical interface you use. I use XFCE

Directly after hd installation I get:

Audacious
Gimp
Geequi
Gtkam
VLC
Synaptic (only used for searching)
flashplugin-nonfree

On this box I also have LibreOffice to be able to read documents that AbiWord cant, Gajim, Google Earth, thats all.

aptitude - used for searching with little letter L

I've forgotten what was on the original siduction iso but here off the top of my head are the applications I can't do without:

Desktop themes
Icon themes
Scribus
Libreoffice
Gimp
Inkscape
ClamAV (I'm constantly passing stuff from one Windows user to another)
Patience/Solitaire

One of my most important things is keepassx. Then follows the multimedia-things like audacious, mplayer, xine, avidemux, audacity and flash (after adding the multimedia-repo). Then grafik-things like gimp and digkam. To the internet-section goes gftp and thats it.All other things are in the installation.

yay, a fellow XFCE user
some have been mentioned before maybe, but I'm installing:

policykit-1 (fixes logout),
some drivers,
Synaptic (not for upgrade),
xfce4-powermanager,
xscreensaver,
laptopmode-tools,
chromium,
pidgin,
gimp (2.8 from Experimental),
scite (my favorite text editor)

some games, too:

pysolfc,
crawl-tiles,
assaultcube,
dopewars,
numptyphysics,
dreamchess

(I'm more of a casual gamer)

actually I'm installing and trying out a lot of stuff all the time, but this is more or less what I ALWAYS install on a new system

KDE!

At some point in time, I started a text file named "List of useful packages.txt" (attached). Perhaps a better name would be "Everything Plus the Kitchen Sink".  Unless I'm installing on a little netbook or USB stick, I first set the source repos per the manual, then I just  paste the contents of that file into an "apt-get install ..." command. Depending on the GPU and the arch, it may need an item or two removed. Of course it changes over time as packages are deprecated -- it's probably a bit out of date at this moment as I haven't installed a siduction system in a month or two.
