Linux Mint 14 Review - A Minty Fail

Linux Mint 14 Review - A Minty Fail
For anyone who likes Gnome 2 Classic desktop styling here we Linux Mint 14 Nadia. Its also a comfortable style for Windows users, and is easy to use. Linux Mint 14 comes ready to use out of the box with all proprietary Audio and Video codecs pre-installed, this includes: MP3, MP4, H.264, and Flash. Mint 14 is based on Ubuntu 12.10, and they've made no attempt to correct any of the issues from Ubuntu, which as a result makes this one of the most slow, unstable releases of Linux Mint. My recommendation - Stick with Linux Mint 13. Changes in Mint 14: Mint Display Manager (MDM) updated MDM supports legacy Gnome 2 themes Cinnamon and MATE desktops updated Nemo (fork of Nautilus) added in Cinnamon More at: www.linuxmint.com Website: www.linuxmint.com Wallpaper imgur.com

Nadia backports available in Linux Mint 13

Introduction

The most significant improvements in Nadia are being backported to Maya.

Among other things, this gives Linux Mint 13 LTS users access to the following packages:

  • MDM 1.0.7
  • Cinnamon 1.6.7 (with Nemo 1.1.2 and Muffin 1.1.2)
  • MATE 1.4

How to

To enable the backports in Linux Mint 13, follow the steps below:

1. Open the “Software Sources” tool from “Menu -> Preferences -> Software Sources”
2. Click on the “Backported packages (backports)” checkbox as illustrated in the picture below

spacer

3. Launch the “Update Manager” from “Menu->Administration->Update Manager”
4. Select all level 1 and level 2 updates
5. Click on “Install Updates”

Once you’re finished installing the updates, restart your computer.

FAQ

- Why isn’t this happening automatically via the “main” components of the repositories?

It’s an opt-in. Some people are interested in getting the latest features (and they can follow the easy steps described above). Others prefer not to change what already works. By using the backports component of the repositories, which are disabled by default, people have the choice to upgrade these components or to keep them from being upgraded.

As with every upgrade and new version of software, there is a risk of regression. These upgrades have been thoroughly tested in Nadia and are known to work in Maya, but the decision to stick with the current versions or to upgrade to the newer ones is entirely yours. Note that both versions are available in the Linux Mint 13 repositories (via main and backports) and that although the process is a bit tedious, it is possible to downgrade all or some packages back to their original versions.

- Will these backports also find their way into LMDE?

Yes, they should do so in the coming days. Unlike Linux Mint 13 though, the upgrade in LMDE will be automatic since LMDE isn’t a frozen but a semi-rolling distribution.

Linux Mint Debian 201204 with Cinnamon, Mate & XFCE - Perfeck
This release features three of the best Linux desktops available at the moment: The traditional and functional MATE 1.2 desktop, the innovative and beautiful Cinnamon 1.4 and the lightweight and rock-solid Xfce 4.8. Both the MATE/Cinnamon and Xfce editions use the MDM display manager. MDM will look familiar to many people, as it brings back GDM 2.20 and all its features: Remote login, configuration tools, fast-user switching, theme-ability, language selection...etc. Yahoo joins DuckDuckGo and is featured as default in the list of search engines which financially support Linux Mint. blog.linuxmint.com Read all about it.
