The Ubuntu community regularly contributes artwork for each release cycle. Here is a look at the selections and how to use them on your desktop.

How to Apply

Changing wallpapers and themes in Ubuntu is straightforward:

  1. Right-click on the desktop and select Change Background (GNOME/Unity) or use the Settings panel for your desktop environment.
  2. Navigate to the directory where the wallpapers are stored, typically /usr/share/backgrounds/.
  3. Select the desired image and apply.

Common Pitfalls

Based on years of community feedback and hands-on testing, watch out for these:

  • Not updating first — Running sudo apt update before installing anything is not optional. Stale package lists cause dependency resolution failures.
  • Ignoring version compatibility — Instructions written for Ubuntu 12.04 may not apply directly to 22.04. Always check the target version.
  • Skipping backups — This sounds obvious, but a quick Timeshift snapshot takes two minutes and can save hours of recovery work.
  • Mixing PPAs carelessly — Third-party repositories can conflict with official packages. Add them one at a time and test after each.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this still work on newer Ubuntu versions?
The core concepts apply across versions, but specific package names or PPA URLs may have changed. Always check for updated instructions matching your Ubuntu release.
Do I need to back up before following these steps?
Yes. Any time you install packages from third-party sources or modify system configuration, create a restore point with Timeshift or a manual backup.
Where can I get help if something goes wrong?
The Ubuntu Forums, Ask Ubuntu, and the official Ubuntu documentation are excellent resources. Our Documentation section also covers common troubleshooting patterns.
