Add Blender PPA Ubuntu
Hi! The Tip Show How to Add the Blender PPA Repository for Ubuntu-Based GNU/Linux Systems.
And in this Ubuntu PPA Blender Blender is compiled with all bells and whistles (OSL, OpenCollada, OpenVDB, OSD, jemalloc & CUDA 9 precompiled kernels) and/nadapted to Ubuntu (python, ffmpeg, ilmbase, openEXR, eigen3, glew, lzo,… Ubuntu packages are used directly to avoid redundancy).

Open a Terminal Shell session
Ctrl+Alt+t on Desktop
