Overview: have to choose safe graphic mode and the rest of the installation runs smoothly.
more details:
the Chinese support. I downloaded the LiHei font from the following site. Despite WQY font is provided by xubuntu8.04. I personally prefer the LiHei font.
http://www.weiphone.com/thread-104025-1-1.html
unpack the font archive.
sudo cp -r ./Lihei /usr/share/fonts/truetype/
then go to system -> language support, install Chinese support. The install wizard will update the font cache.
reboot
To enable Chinese input method under English session,
edit /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default,
XIM=SCIM
XIM_PROGRAM=/usr/bin/scim
XIM_ARGS="-d"
XIM_PROGRAM_XTRA=
# Set following variable to non-zero string if program set itself as deamon
XIM_PROGRAM_SETS_ITSELF_AS_DAEMON=yes
#
# Define GTK and QT IM module
# They may or may not be using xim as the IM.
#
GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
QT_IM_MODULE=xim
#
# Define lists of packages neded for above IM to function
#
DEPENDS="scim,scim-anthy|scim-canna|scim-chewing|scim-pinyin|scim-hangle|scim-prime|scim-skk|scim-tables-additional|scim-m17n|scim-uim|scim-tables-ja|scim-tables-ko|scim-tables-zh"
One weird thing is the sound driver. After a fresh install of xubuntu, the sound works "fine" but the volume control applet doesn't work. Installing pulse audio server and alsa driver will fix the problem, follow the instruction of ubuntu wiki:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
One more thing is to added: edit /etc/default/pulseaudio, to enable pulseaudio server at startup.
Or follow the instruction in that file.
add gnome-screensaver to auto start application list in settings.
add one line in /etc/fstab, to mount windows partition at start:
/dev/sda1 /media/windows ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0
sudo nano ~/.gtk-bookmarks, add one line, so that the windows partition can be accessed easily via "places":
file:///media/windows
I prefer to use pyneighborhood to browse shared folder on local network
sudo apt-get install smbfs pyneighborhood
