To install FS Icons Ubuntu, you first must decide whether you want the stable or daily builds.
Though the stable builds are released much less frequently and have fewer icons, they have a higher guarantee of working properly. The unstable (daily) builds are "bleeding-edge" - they haven't really been tested before being released. This means that soon as a new icon is completed, it is released through the daily builds in around 24 hours.
Please note that the stable builds don't have -mono-light-1 or -mono-light-2 packages, but only have -mono-light, though not many things are lost through this.
Now, to install, type the words in quotations (") into a terminal:
1. Add either the stable or daily PPA:
Stable: "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fs-
Daily: "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fs-
2. Run "sudo apt-get update"
3. Install the packages (replace <packages> with the packages you want to install from above):
"sudo apt-get install <packages>"
