Enabling VNC protocol within Terminal Server Client in Ubuntu

The Terminal Server Client (tsclient) that comes with Ubuntu has the capability to connect to remote systems using the VNC protocol. However, it is grayed out by default.

To get it enabled, simply add the "xtightvncviewer" package.

Adding back Clearlooks theme to Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala)

Ubuntu 9.10 ships missing my favorite theme, Clearlooks. This may simply be corrected by adding the package "gnome-themes" which is where that theme resides.

Adding back Skyrocket screen saver to Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala)

Ubuntu 9.10 ships with far less screen savers installed by default. Notably my favorite was missing, Skyrocket. This may simply be corrected by adding the package "rss-glx" which is where that screen saver resides.
