After digging in this version I was wondering what tweaks/things a normal user should do with this release and make it much better than any other OS available out there. All tweaks are tested by NoobsLab, so hopefully you won't get any problem with them and if you encounter any problem feel free to ask. Lets start .....
Ubuntu 14.10 is released today, I was wondering what to tweak in this release and this time there aren't different tweaks for this release 14.10 than previous 14.04 Trusty. So you guys can continue following these tweaks for Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn. For some tweaks it is written "Only for 14.04 Trusty" these won't work in 14.10 Utopic as I tested.
