[QUOTE="RoboMan, post: 892869, member: 53544"] Nice! Congrats on the migration to Linux. Ubuntu does have commands for updating, just open the terminal and write: [CODE]sudo apt-get upgrade[/CODE] #sudo acts as an authentication command to use superadmin (root) permissions, so you'll be asked to write the password in order to execute the command. In Linux most commands will need "sudo" first to be executed, keep in mind. Try to stick with the built in Software Center since it's pretty decent. I personally never use antivirus in Linux, but I do install GUFW which is a graphic user interface for [I]iptables[/I]. Iptables is the firewall for Linux that comes built-in. GUFW is really easy to use, just install, enable and that's it. You can find it in the Software Center. Gaming in Ubuntu was always an issue for me, so I ditched it for Manjaro. Try installing wine from the Software Center as well. [/QUOTE]
