Linux Mint 4.0: Ubuntu++
I was very impressed with the last version of Linux Mint. There were very few things I didn't like about it, and they mostly dealt with missing packages. I was excited when I heard of the new version to see if any of my beefs had been addressed. I'm also interested to see if Linux Mint can keep up the bar they set with 3.2. Here we go.
Install:
The boot screen and loading splash were pleasant to look at, which is a trait I've come to expect from Linux Mint. One of the new features listed for 4.0 is that it comes with 3D effects enabled by default. This always makes me leery since it's almost guaranteed to be the first point of failure.
Once the LiveCD environment booted I ran the installer.
