Converting Solus Budgie to Nemo Desktop View | Not a Linux Guru Guy
In this episode, I'll explore a few more aspects of working on Solus. Primarily, I'm going to change the Budgie desktop view to a Nemo desktop view. Not sure what that is? Neither was I until I tried it. Plus, I also go over how to enable flatpaks and snaps to work and give a couple of examples of how to install programs on both platforms.
So settle into a comfy chair after grabbing a favorite brew, and join me as I attempt to bring this ship into harbor.

My script download site:
https://nlgg.rlcopple.com/index.php?c...
Note, I never put the enableflatpak file on this script download page But as you will see in the video, it is a very simple script. You can pause the video at the spot I show it on the screen, then simply type the command you see in a file named whatever you desire. As a matter of fact, I'll copy and paste it right here:
#!/bin/bash
Enables Flatpaks repo
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flat...
exit
That's it! Make sure you save it in your path and give it permission to execute.
