Tip: Codecs and more in Ubuntu

You are missing codecs, fonts and other nifty stuff in Ubuntu?

Open up a console and do:
Code:

1
sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/XXXX.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/XXXX.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list

Replace the four X’s with the name of your distribution. For example 11.10 is called “Oneiric Ocelot” and in this case it would be “http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/oneiric.list”.

Next do:
Code:

1
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update

And at last this (this make take a while):
Code:

1
sudo apt-get -y install w32codecs xine-ui mplayer gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad libxine1-ffmpeg faad sox lame ffmpeg mjpegtools vorbis-tools libxvidcore4 gstreamer0.10-pitfdll libdvdcss2 timidity timidity-interfaces-extra freepats flashplugin-nonfree totem-gstreamer rar gtk-gnutella frozen-bubble ttf-mscorefonts-installer gsfonts-x11 xfonts-intl-european default-jre numlockx
sudo apt-get -y install w32codecs xine-ui mplayer gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad libxine1-ffmpeg faad sox lame ffmpeg mjpegtools vorbis-tools libxvidcore4 gstreamer0.10-pitfdll libdvdcss2 timidity timidity-interfaces-extra freepats flashplugin-nonfree totem-gstreamer rar gtk-gnutella frozen-bubble ttf-mscorefonts-installer gsfonts-x11 xfonts-intl-european default-jre numlockx

have fun!

This will work for Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Kubuntu and Lubuntu.
