* Internet [[Configure_Networking#Connectivity_testing|connectivity]], unless the packages have been pre-fetched into a local cache.
* Create a non-privileged [[Setting_up_a_new_user#Creating_a_new_user|user account]] for security reasons, if you skipped this step during [[Installation]].  
* Install appropriate [[Graphics driver]] drivers for your hardware. Without graphics drivers, errors are likely to occur when starting your desktop.
* [[Repositories#Managing_repositories|Enable]] community repository. [[Setup-desktop#Installation_using_setup-desktop|Setup-desktop]] script automatically does this for you.  
* A [[Setting_up_a_new_user#Creating_a_new_user|non-root user account]].
* Install [[graphics driver]] for your video hardware.}}
* The [[Repositories#Managing_repositories|community repository must be enabled]].
