Installing the Software Client for Linux on Ubuntu¶

In this section, you will learn how to install and uninstall the Software Client for Linux on Ubuntu. There are a few prerequisites to complete before a Anyware Software Client for Linux installation will work.

Prerequisites¶

These instructions assume you have already built the desktop machine, and that the machine meets the client's requirements.
You must have super user (root) privileges and be able to issue sudo commands.
Ensure a graphical environment has been installed/configured on the Software Client system by running the following command:
```
sudo systemctl get-default
graphical.target
```

A desktop environment is required

Before proceeding, install a desktop environment of your choice. Kubuntu distributions are bundled with KDE; you can install KDE from other distributions by using this command:

sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop

To install Mate Desktop, use this command:

sudo apt install ubuntu-mate-desktop

These commands are provided as a convenience; there is no requirement for KDE or Mate Desktop. Any desktop environment will work.
