Ubuntu 22.04 jammy

That is what the linux is based on....although that doesnt ring true/correct.......the latest Linux Mint (LM22, Wilma) is supposed to be base on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Where did the download come from ?

Right here, that will teach me https://ftp.nluug.nl/os/Linux/distr/linuxmint/iso/testing/

 

[Condobloke]

That is where my download came from as well

That will teach me

That may why I am having problems with an install from that same place.....

I didnt think to dun an inxi on it

Thats a good find, Noel

 

[wizardfromoz]

I'd better let Dave from Maine know about that, he mentioned it a couple of days ago.

 

[wizardfromoz]

Done.

 

[Condobloke]

That was a good find, Noel......simply because the description line should have read :

Distro: Linux Mint 22 Wilma base: Ubuntu 22.04 jammy
Distro: Linux Mint 22 Wilma: base Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

I see you found that info in System on the fake LM22

I must remind myself to do the same in future.

@wizardfromoz's observation that it is not listed on Distro Watch yet, is also a good indicator.

 

[Condobloke]

I just went to the NLUUG website and cannot find the link there

 

[wizardfromoz]

I've just been there and it is still there.

 

[wizardfromoz]

Maybe us Aussies are running around in circles?

Clem's blog might reveal.

 

[Condobloke]

me blind !

 

[Condobloke]

I was fiddling around with it on the spare ssd this morning....and was going to post that I found zero difference in setting up two monitors with it.

Apart from that I was having trouble seeing any real differences.....not that I spent a great deal of time.

Stan did say he could see precious little difference. Eagle eyed Stan !

 

[wizardfromoz]

Maybe yes, maybe no

I've posted at Clem's place, we'll see what comes of it.

 

[Condobloke]

Our erstwhile friend mentioned above also said there was a new app...Matrix......

and sure enough it is there

The plot thickens !

 

[Condobloke]

This morning, the plot is a pea souper !!!!

The below screenshot was taken from the OFFICIAL beta release by linuxmint.com.....from 'system'
