Migrating from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS on HP Compaq TC4400 Tablet PC

Setting up Xenial is very similar to setting up Trusty.

First of all, I install synaptic and gdebi, because I don't like the Ubuntu Store thingy:
  • sudo apt-get install synaptic gdebi
Then get back the Gnome Classic look:
  • sudo apt-get install gnome-session-flashback
  • log out to change the window manager by clicking on the icon next to your user name then login again.
Then set up gnome-session-flashback with Compiz
  • Add something to the panel: Alt+Super + Right click
  • Set number of workspaces
    • sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
    • in Compiz Config Settings Manager navigate to General / General Options / Desktop Size set the size you want.
  • Change date-time format on panel
    • sudo apt-get install dconf-editor
    • in Dconf Editor navigate to com > canonical > indicator > datetime
      • Set "time-format" to "custom"
      • Set "custom-time-format" to the format you want, i.e. %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S
      • Make sure that "show-clock" is check-marked. 
  • Change the Indicator App on the panel to show less
    • Gnome Session Flashback installs indicator-applet-complete, but there are more then one indicator applet that can be downloaded with synaptic. The difference between them is this:
      • indicator-applet-complete is: messaging applications, power settings, bluetooth settings, network settings, sound settings, date and time settings, user accounts, session management
      • indicator-applet is: messaging applications, power settings, bluetooth settings, network settings, sound settings
      • indicator-applet-session is: user accounts, session management
      • indicator-applet-appmenu is: your active application's menu header
    • Other settings can be changed in the Dconf Editor under com > canonical > indicator. (i.e. turn off the language icon)
  • Turn off effects:
    • in Compiz Config Settings Manager navigate to Effects and turn off Animations
  • Set Nautilus (Files) default view to List
  • Make .sh files run on double click
