Product Description
Linux Mint's purpose is to produce an elegant, up-to-date, and comfortable GNU/Linux desktop based on Ubuntu. Some of the reasons for the success of Linux Mint are:
- It's one of the most community driven distributions
- It is a Debian-based distribution and as such it is very solid and it comes with one of the greatest package managers
- It is compatible with and uses Ubuntu repositories. This gives Linux Mint users access to a huge collection of packages and software.
- It comes with a lot of desktop improvements which make it easier for the user to do common things
- There is a strong focus on making things work out of the box (WiFi cards drivers in the file system, multimedia support, screen resolution, etc)
Based on Linux Mint 8 Main Edition, Linux 2.6.31, Fluxbox 1.1.1 and Xorg 7.4, Linux Mint 8 Fluxbox features a full desktop experience while remaining low on resource usage.
