I just removed some terminal info from the unofficial docs

[Benjamin Kerensa]

I agree with Gunar... Lots of the online community maintained help includes
CLI instructions. Is this page even linked to from Ubuntu.com? There is
really so much that requires CLI in Ubuntu and if we start stripping it out
of community help we might see users getting lost.

In fact on IRC we do not ask people generally to go click on this part of
the UI but instead ask them to run CLI commands and provide output or
install a package with CLI.
