Linux Mint 4.0 Out and About… since last November.
Linux Mint 4.0 has been available since last November, which is the reason this post is included in the belated category.
Daryna, as it’s codenamed was released in two editions, standard and light, it’s based in Ubuntu but features some improvements in terms of out-of-the-box experience such as pre-installed multimedia codecs.
The installation LiveCD includes CompizFusion, Gnome 2.20, NTFS read and write support, migration assistant and many other good features have made Linux Mint 4.0 one of the big moves and shakers. Even the guys at distrowatch have hailed Daryna as THE distro for newcomers.
More information in the release notes and download link’s here.
PS. Ok, so GNOME is not your thing… XFCE, Fluxbox and KDE Linux Mint Editions are on the way, so just be patient.
