Tibesti

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ackondro/tibesti

On Ubuntu 11.10 (oneiric) change the sources.list to natty

sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ackondro-tibesti-oneiric.list

#deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ackondro/tibesti/ubuntu oneiric main
#deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ackondro/tibesti/ubuntu oneiric main
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ackondro/tibesti/ubuntu natty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ackondro/tibesti/ubuntu natty main

Now install

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tibesti
