Ubuntu One on Lubuntu?

Is it possible to sync a Ubuntu computer with a Lubuntu computer with Ubuntu One? Can you install Ubuntu One on Lubuntu with no problems?


11.10 and previous versions

Lubuntu uses the same base as Ubuntu, so once you install the Ubuntu One client, everything should be fine. Note though that you will not get the same level of integration with PCManFM that you do with Nautilus.

The best UbuntuOne client package to install is ubuntuone-client-gtk. You can install this in the Synaptic Package Manager (present by default on Lubuntu systems), in the Software Center (if you have that installed), or in the LXTerminal by running sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get install ubuntuone-client-gtk.


12.04 and above

From Precise, the GTK version of UbuntuOne is no longer supported.

However is now an officially supported QT version of the Ubuntu-One client.

Whilst this QT-based app will adapt to your desktop-look, you have the option to make subtle changes via the QT-configuration utility qt-config
