Installing KDE neon/pt-br

Sobre o KDE neon

O KDE neon é um conjunto de repositórios através dos quais o software da comunidade KDE é distribuído. É também um conjunto de imagens de disco que contém versões facilmente instaláveis do Ubuntu, com um conjunto mínimo de aplicativos e uma área de trabalho do KDE Plasma, além de um repositório neon pré-configurado do KDE de sua escolha.

Obtendo neon

O site do Neon é neon.kde.org. Vá para "Baixar neon do KDE". Você verá quatro imagens disponíveis: Usuário, Teste, Instável e Desenvolvedor. Imagens do Docker não são recomendadas para novos usuários.

A Unstable Edition é para aqueles que podem suportar bugs visíveis e literalmente não podem esperar por novos recursos. A Testing Edition fornece apenas correções de bugs para a versão oficial mais recente do KDE. Tentativas de corrigir erros podem causar mais, no entanto. A Developer Edition é para desenvolvedores do KDE, com as bibliotecas de desenvolvimento já instaladas.

A edição do usuário é recomendada para usuários comuns e também para aqueles que estão sobrecarregados com o último parágrafo.

Installing

Once you have the image, you have two options: write it to USB with KDE/ROSA Image Writer, or burn the image to a DVD. For burning the image to a DVD, use your favorite DVD burner. If you don't have an optical drive or find it too slow, download ROSA image writer and write it to a USB flash drive. Then reboot your system.

Information

If your system currently has Windows 8 or above, then search for "Advanced Startup" on the desktop. Navigate to the Advanced Startup Settings menu. Choose "Use a device," followed by whatever medium you wrote neon to.

You should be greeted with the Plasma desktop of KDE neon after a couple of loading screens. Click "Install neon User" and wait for the installer to appear. Follow the steps of the installer until Disk Setup. At this point, you are given a choice. Use the entire disk, or install alongside existing OSes? More advanced disk setup can use existing home folders and overwrite OSes; future versions of neon will make overwriting OSes easier.

If you haven't backed up your Windows files and/or you are unsure if all of your needed applications have equivalents for Linux-based systems, install alongside Windows. Otherwise, use the whole disk. This will begin the installation. Quickly but carefully, select your timezone and set user data. Then wait for the installer.

If you want, play around with KDE until you see the message that installation has finished. At that time, restart your computer by clicking the icon in the bottom left corner, then going to Leave and clicking Reboot . If all goes well, you should see a menu with the options: "neon GNU/Linux," "Advanced options for neon GNU/Linux" and "System Setup." If you installed alongside Windows, you should see an option for it as well.

After installing

After installing, browse the software manager, Discover, and find any applications you need. Most likely these include an office suite, a finance manager, and an email client. We recommend installing either LibreOffice (unofficial, but works very well with KDE) or Calligra (developed by KDE) as an office suite. For an email client, there's KMail and Thunderbird. For a finance manager, KDE creates Skrooge and KMyMoney, but GNUCash is also available.
