Newbie from USA

Postby Prof_Stein on Sun May 06, 2012 4:25 pm

Hi all I'm new, not just to Mint but to Linux as well, and have been happy using Linux Mint 12. I had always wanted to use Linux since I was a child, and received a computer earlier this year with no OS and saw it as the perfect opportunity to start down the Linux Road :)

Linux Mint is funded by ads and donations.

Hi Prof_Stein, welcome to the Linux Mint forums :D Thanks for joining the forums! I hope you continue to enjoy the journey :wink:

Be sure also to check out the Community website (ideas, tutorials, and hardware and software reviews), and the Cinnamon Spices website for adding themes, applets and extensions to Cinnamon (and check out the Cinnamon Extras package, which will install a lot of these for your automatically). If you haven't installed Cinnamon, see here the most recent update for a teaser.

You can also chat in real-time with other Linux Mint users. In the Mint Menu, in the Internet section, start the application XChat IRC. You will automatically get connected to #linuxmint-chat for general chat and #linuxmint-help for support with other Linux Mint users.
