Thanks for posting this in the forum, as well. The sooner the news gets out, the better.

I already posted a link to the blog notice on identi.ca for the !mint group.

Oh yeah, I also posted to the !debian and !ubuntu groups on identi.ca just in case some folks there would be interested in the 201101 LMDE re-spin.

With some folks having issues with the 2010-12 32-bit ISO, this news should really help them out.

I took care of the "dents," but since I do not use Twitter, perhaps someone else will handle the !mint "tweets." :wink:

nice indeed - just made a test-install. no problems whatsoevery anymore

My favorite distro is back on track

Just for a datapoint, I downloaded this from the torrents today, burnt it to a DVD using Brasero from Mint 8 Universal edition, and installed it on my Dell d600. Perfect success! I then installed all of the updates (via ethernet cable).

Next, when I get the time, I have to do the necessary reading to learn how to make the Broadcom wireless card work, and I'm in business.

So for now, I have to say it's a rousing success! Thanks! ! ! !

Thanks, I will definitely give that a go.

Oh, also I thought I should mention that I did not need to use compatibility mode when booting the Live CD. I don't know if that is particularly useful information, but previously I've often had to use compatibility mode with various versions of Ubuntu based Mint (not with Mint 10 though).

well downloaded the new 2011-01 LMDE..
Sorry to say it will not load the live dvd on my desktop computer.
it brings up the Ready and then just sits and blinks..
I have installed it on my laptop and all is well so its not the dvd.
I have never had this problem with any other system.
At the moment i am running the last 2 versions of mint, 10 and the lts version
Thanks for all your troubles.. i will be waiting in the wings .

@mickeymouse

I have yet to see you post a terminal of lspci....and/or a terminal of dmesg...

So that people can attempt to assist you......

by **mikeymouse** on Tue Jan 04, 2011 11:00 pm

From what i have been able to see there are a lot of people with the same problem.
The live dvd just does not load...2011.01
I have just about every other operating system out there including the last 2 or 3 versions of Mint
and all work just fine...
Can't give you any info it just stops on the load and blinks ready.. nothing else.
Its not the dvd i have installed it on my laptop just fine..
I have no answers no output no nuttin..
I am running Mint 10 just fine.
sorry

So you're saying it loads fine on your laptop (like it did on mine), and will not load on your desktop?

by **mikeymouse** on Thu Jan 06, 2011 10:43 am

Yepper thats what i am saying.
It installed just fine on my laptop even did all the updates and is running fine.
Mind you i have to go to the local coffee shop for high speed..at home i am on dialup..(no choice)
It will not load the live dvd on my desktop, it gets as far as the READY and then just
sits there and blinks...
Thanks mikeymouse
