I’m a noob…and loved this from the start, but my wireless would not work no matter how many different threads/instructions/drivers I tried.
Until I hit the instructions regarding RFKill on this site.

Translating AngelForget:

A.F. was very complimentary. 🙂

Google Translate gave a quite-bad translation; I was surprised.

Better, but might still be inaccurate:

Linux Mint LXDE is fantastic, very light, optimum for [a] netbook, and much better than Ubuntu.

Please tell us if this is incorrect; I don’t know Italian well.

wow. I’m very impressed so far and I’m a hardcore Ubuntu user. I think Mint just moved a few paces ahead with this one. And I love that you don’t have Unity shoved down your throat. Very smooth running system so far. the look and feel is so smooth and seamless.

It appears that I was in error (above) when I said that Print to PDF works intermittently. It does work, but VERY SLOWLY when dealing with large files. It actually took 16 MINUTES before my PDF appeared in Home folder (unlike LM11 which took a few seconds). So it appears that Print to PDF does work, but you may have to wait quite a while before PDF appears in Home folder (and I am running 8 gig RAM).

Running LM12 LXDE from USB. It seems that Print to PDF only works intermittently and sometimes not at all. Since this is a crucial function for me, I guess I am going back to LM11 Gnome, which works perfectly all the time.

(Clarification: C.C. Maas is not likely to do any development work; simply make DVDs available.) –nb

@Ultimate (136)
Not yet; it will need work. Using Google Translate for that Web site, I see that it’s quite likely C.C. Maas sells DVDs of Mint, and plans to issue a Mint 13 DVD.

HTH,
