Ubuntu Setup

Installing developer tools

Open a terminal window by clicking ‘Dash home’ -> Terminal or by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T. Enter the following commands (ignore the lines beginning with #):

# Update the package index we are installing from
sudo apt-get update
# Upgrade the installed packages to the most recent versions
sudo apt-get upgrade -y
# Install packages that will be useful, e.g. gcc, git, etc.
sudo apt-get install build-essential libsdl-dev git -y

Restart the Ubuntu virtual machine by clicking the top-right corner to finalize the updates.
