Or skip all that ..
This is a script to automate the installation of all those extra stuff after you have installed Hardy (like automatix before) : Code:
wget http://ultamatix.com/download/ultamatix-1.8.0-3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i ultamatix-1.8.0-3_all.deb
This will install all the packages required for ultamatix.
