Bescheiden Systeemvereisten

Ubuntu MATE werkt goed op zowel snelle als trage computers. Geoptimaliseerd voor functionaliteit terwijl systeembronnen licht gehouden worden.

Minimum
  • Pentium III 750 megahertz (MHz)
  • 512 megabyte (MB) RAM
  • 8 gigabyte (GB) schijfruimte
Aanbevolen
  • Core 2 Duo 1.6 gigahertz (GHz)
  • 2 gigabyte (GB) RAM
  • 16 gigabyte (GB) schijfruimte

Het besturingssysteem zal veel efficiƫnter werken als je computer voldoet aan of hoger is dan de aanbevolen vereisten.

Installatie aan het voorbereiden

Ubuntu MATE is relatief gemakkelijk om in te stellen. Of je nu je bestaande besturingssysteem vervangt, of Ubuntu MATE installeert naast een bestaande installatie - zoals  Microsoft Windows of een andere GNU/Linux distributie

Voor de beste resultaten:

  • Maak een backup van alle belangrijke data naar een ander opslagmedium.
  • Maak een verbinding met internet om alle beschikbare updates tijdens de installatieprocedure te installeren.
  • Blijf verbonden met internet om alle beschikbare updates te installeren.
  • Indien je apparaat beschikt over een batterij, steek dit dan in een stopcontact.

The live session you are currently in right now is a good opportunity to test Ubuntu MATE without modifying your computer, allowing you to test all of your peripherals are working as intended before committing to installing it on your machine. Once you are ready, double click the installation icon from the desktop.


Modern UEFI-based computers

If you have a modern PC that uses the Unifed Extended Firmware Interface (UEFI), you may need to disable Secure Boot (or enable the Unlock Bootloader option) prior to installation, particularly if an operating system was pre-installed.

If you are using a legacy BIOS machine, you do not need to do this.

Especially when dual booting, it is important that you boot your system in the correct mode and use the 64-bit image , as you cannot boot an operating system installed in BIOS mode after installing a UEFI-enabled operating system or vice versa.

Booting in BIOS mode on a UEFI system with a GPT-formatted disk will also show a "protection layer". Maak je geen zorgen, Jouw data is niet verloren of corrupt!

Jouw systeem draait momenteel in ??? modus.

Swap

For computers that start to run low on memory (RAM), the operating system will start swapping to disk. Known as a "paging file" in Windows. Performance will decrease when running low on memory and could possibly freeze if you completely run out of memory without anywhere to swap.

By default, a swap partition is created based on the size of your RAM. For example, if you have 2 GiB of RAM, then 2 GiB of hard disk space will be reserved for swap at the end of the drive.

Dual booten

Als je wenst om Ubuntu MATE te installeren samen met je huidige besturingssysteem dan moeten de huidige partities verkleind worden., met als resultaat een opsplitsing van je harde schijf tussen de verschillende besturingssystemen.

Om het risico op dataverlies of mislukking te verkleinen, verzeker jezelf dat:
  • er genoeg ruimte beschikbaar is. Minimum 10 GB is aanbevolen.
  • Maak een backup belangrijke data op een andere schijf.
  • Defragmenteer de harde schijf.
  • Verzeker jezelf dat Windows volledig afgesloten werd (niet in slaapstand).

Welke benadering verkies je?

  • Eenvoudig
  • Geavanceerd
  • Veiligst
The simplest method is to use the installer.

The installer scans your disks for existing operating systems and provides a choice on what you'd like to do.

You will see an option similar to this:

Followed by:

Do not interrupt or power off the computer during a resize operation.

If you do, data loss or a partition table corruption could occur. Please double check your changes before proceeding.

The installer may show a spinner cursor for a long period of time, depending on the size of your disk.

When you next boot Windows, run chkdsk /f from the command prompt to check the file system for errors. Windows may schedule this automatically. This ensures consistency for the NTFS file system.

Use GParted or the installer's "Custom" option.

GParted is available during the live session only. It is located under the System Administration menu. GParted provides complete flexibility over your partitions, primarily for power users who know how they'd like to layout their disks. This method makes changes to partitions prior to installation.

Open GParted

After completing operations to your disk, you can leave the remaining space unallocated, whereby the installer will detect this unused space to install Ubuntu MATE to.


Using the Installer's "Custom" option.

Instead or in addition to GParted, the Custom option during the installation wizard can also configure and resize your partitions as well as choose mount points. Dividing your disks can make it somewhat easier to re-install the operating system later if desired.

You can specify these mount points:

  • / - The base for Ubuntu MATE
  • /boot - Bootloader and kernels
  • /home - Your personal files and folders
  • /tmp - Temporary files
  • /usr - Contains most of the applications (binaries, documentation, libraries, etc)
  • /var - Variable data (such as system logs)
  • /srv - Data for System Services (typically used for server configurations)
  • /opt - Additional software unmanaged by the package manager (such as Spotify)

Creating separate partitions for all above mount points is not necessary. The commonly partitioned directories being /, /home en /boot. These mount points can also be set across different physical disks, for instance, if you'd like the OS / on an SSD, but your personal files /home on a mechanical hard drive.

Shrink your system disk within Windows.
Applies to Windows Vista and later.

If you are using Windows XP or earlier, you will need to use the Eenvoudig of Geavanceerd method to shrink your disk.

Newer versions of Windows provide a tool to shrink the NTFS volume from within Windows. This is a safer bet if it's essential that Windows still boots on your computer while experiencing Ubuntu MATE.

1. Open Disk Management from the start menu.

2. Right click your desired drive and choose Shrink Partition from the context menu.

3. Enter the amount to shrink your system partition by.

Remember, Ubuntu MATE needs at minimum 8 GB of disk space. 1 GB = 1000 MB

Repairing Boot Problems

Linux distributions use a boot loader known asgrub, which looks for and bootstraps the operating system. However, some operating systems (such as Windows) do not integrate with existing boot loaders and will overwrite them, with the potential to lose access to Ubuntu MATE temporally.

Fortunately, you can use the Boot Repair tool to repair common problems caused by other operating systems.

VirtualBox Guest Additions

To accelerate graphics performance inside the virtual machine, please install Guest Additions.

Proprietary or Open Source Drivers?

Proprietary drivers come directly from the manufacturer. As they are not open source, Ubuntu developers are unable review and improve code meaning you'll have to rely on the manufacturer for support.

In addition, proprietary drivers can significantly improve graphics performance and as a result, the entire system. Users may wish to install these drivers to:

  • Run 3D applications and games.
  • Use Compiz's window effects.
  • Improve power management, particularly if the device experiences overheating problems under open source drivers.
  • Improve support for high resolutions and multiple monitors.
  • Fix blank screen issues.

Proprietary drivers are known as "binary blobs". Certain hardware may experience worse behavior, causing more issues then the open source drivers, such as:

  • Failing to boot to the graphical desktop.
  • Broken drivers after an upgrade.
  • Severe graphical glitches.
  • Problems with applications/games requiring hardware acceleration.

is the open source driver for your card.


What about the latest NVIDIA drivers?

Extra Drivers fetches the latest tested driver from the Ubuntu repositories. Advanced users and gamers who would like newer versions may wish to consider adding the Ubuntu Graphics Driver PPA, which packages up the latest NVIDIA drivers for Ubuntu. These packages are not as thoroughly tested.

This only applies for actively supported cards, and not older cards using the legacy driver.
  Add Repository

To add the repository to the system, open a terminal and type the following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
  sudo apt-get update

After the PPA is added, newer versions are presented to install in Additional Drivers:

Wireless, Bluetooth and Other Devices

If there were no additional drivers found for the hardware nor did it work after installing the firmware packages, you may need to research your device to find the appropriate driver.

Unfortunately, this is due to the fact the manufacturer for your hardware hasn't provided any source code for developers to freely use, or there is insufficient documentation to create drivers for your particular brand and model.

Some manufacturers may provide closed source drivers provided by themselves directly. If you require assistance, feel free to ask the community.

Read more on troubleshooting wireless hardware.

Printers

When you set up a printer in the Printers utility (under System Administration), you will be presented with a list of drivers available to use, if applicable.

Some manufacturers may provide their own drivers and require you to download them from their website.

Read more on printing.


HP Linux Printing and Imaging System

Recommended if you have an HP printer as it provides full support for printing on most HP SFP (single function peripheral) inkjets and many LaserJets, and for scanning, sending faxes and for photo-card access on most HP MFP (multi-function peripheral) printers.
