Linux Mint 9 offers new software manager, backup tool


The Isadora release follows up on Linux Mint 8 ("Helena"), which released an RC1 GNOME version in November, and a final KDE release in early February. (Based on Ubuntu 9.10 ("Karmic Koala"), Linux Mint 8 added improvements such as new OEM installation features, an option to ignore updates, and "menu places" that can be configured by users.)

 

Linux Mint 9 made its debut in a May release candidate (RC), which was based on the Ubuntu 10.04  ("Lucid Lynx") that had been released just the week before. Like the RC, this week's final version incorporates Linux kernel 2.6.32.11, the GNOME 2.30 desktop environment, and the Xorg 7.4 X Windows System.
