Linux Mint 14 Is Out

"New submitter medge_42 sends words that Linux Mint 14 has been released. Check out their list of features and release notes to see what's new. One version uses MATE 1.4, which includes some long-needed bug fixes as well as functional bluetooth and mate-keyring, its own character map, fast alt-tabbing, and improvements to Caja. The other version uses Cinnamon 1.6, which contains a huge number of fixes and new features including its own file browser, persistent workspaces and a window quicklist to go with them, a notifications applet, an improved sound applet, and alt-tab graphical improvements. MDM now supports legacy GDM 2 themes and userlists, and has improved user switching. Gedit 2.30 has replaced Gedit 3, and MintStick replaces USB-ImageWriter." -- source: http://linux.slashdot.org/story/12/11/21/0455245/linux-mint-14-is-out What a shame that I don't have time at the moment to play around with it... :-( Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Waikato, NZ http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ Ph. +64 (7) 858-5174

What a shame that I don't have time at the moment to play around with it... :-(
Hi Peter, I've built a 64-bit system that will boot up both the Linux Mint 14 Cinnamon (gnome 3.6) or Mate. If I can make it to Monday's meeting I'll bring it along for those who want to have a play around. cheers, Ian.
