My setup script to use when setting up a new ubuntu install be it a VM or a fresh install on a computer.

ubuntu_setup.sh

# Ubuntu 18.10
#
# VM Setup:
# 1 Cores & 2 GB RAM
#
# Requirements:
# - $ sudo apt-get install curl -y
# - Your SSH keys are already setup since these includes cloning repositories from github.
#
# Post install if you hadn't done so:
# 1. Install Chromium / Google Chrome
#
# Run this script by doing the command below:
#
# > curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Keoven/4434598/raw/886e8c15e94688ccda9fb0fd6940709f0358c708/ubuntu_setup.sh | sh
#
# Troubleshooting:
# 1. Encountering redirect loops? 
#   Try changing your repository source such as the Main server or JAIST in Japan.
#
# 2. VM stuck at a low resolution on restart?
#   ~$ sudo vi /lib/systemd/system/open-vm-tools.service
#   Add under [Unit] the following line:
#   After=display-manager.service
