Greetings from Sonoma County, California

Hello.

Excellent work Mint developers!!!! I dig the Cinnamon desktop. I love Debian as a server. I've been running Arch with Cinnamon and thought I try Debian with Cinnamon after I broke my Arch system installing/upgrading a bunch of stuff after I had a few single malts...Have you ever tried to log in after a long night of malted goodness and computer "administration" and say to yourself....well never mind.

So, Hello and Cheers!.

Welcome Rabbit_Peril, to the Linux Mint Forum. Glad you are here. Ahhh...a fellow Californian, the more the merrier. California: land of the fruits and nuts (literally).

It's one big happy fruit bowl up here in Northern California. The nuts find their way up here to, but we like to keep the majority of them in the East Bay.

I went with Linux Mint Debian btw. I've had a few issues with Cinnamon failing to load, and ATI Catalyst, but I think I have them all sorted. I didn't format my /home partition when I installed LMD. I went ahead and formatted /home instead of hunting down and deleting files and fixing the various issues and now I'm OK; hopefully.

*Late response: I have a personal preference for cashews & pistachios and grapes & pomegrantes, but they are all good, IMHO.

Looks like you handled it. No doubt, you would get the victory. Cheers.
