Mint

Post by Gnarly » Mon Jan 28, 2008 3:16 pm

After listening to the Linux Mint show I installed it on a spare partition. Actually I installed the Community KDE version. Sweet Distro! It's very fast on my machine and I now have 3D that actually works with my ATI card!!!!!!!!! :P
Is anyone else running it? I normally use Mepis or Pclinuxos but have never been able to get 3D to work. I might stick with this one for awhile.

Mint is a great distro. I did have a gripe with the latest version (4.0). For some reason it would never remember the screen resolution settings and I was constantly having to reset it. Sometimes it wouldn't even change after adjusting it. I would reinstall the video driver and it still wouldn't change. But other than that issue, Mint rocks. It's one of my favorites.
