If you have been using Linux Mint 15 Xfce, you will have been surprised (pleasantly hopefully
) by the new default Whisker menu. There is now a new version available with many improvements, see the post here: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/07/whisker-menu-update-brings-support-for.html
To install it now on Linux Mint 15 Xfce, open Software Sources, click the PPAs button and add the PPA
ppa:gottcode/gcppa. Then run the command:
and add the following three lines at the end of this file (this is needed to give the PPA just added equal priority as the Linux Mint repository):
Code: Select all
Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-gottcode-gcppa
Pin-Priority: 700
Save and close the file. Open Update Manager and you should see the upgrade for the package xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin available (or click the Refresh button there).
After upgrading either log out and in again, or run the following command to restart the panel:
Enjoy the improvements
