Linux Mint team have released 19.1 code named Tessa. A list of the new features are found here: https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_tessa_cinnamon_whatsnew.php so I won’t be going into them in any depth as others will do this. I am giving my personal impressions as an average users who just wants somet…

Thanks for that, I certainly will be live booting any distro that appeals to me before I install it as I did with Ubuntu Mate and Budgie but they both shared this common problem. I will let this matter slide and try some new distros later. CPAST

It's FOSS Community
