I've got an older Gateway laptop that I've never been able to get the sound and wireless to work correctly. I downloaded Mint 8 today and just installed it. Sound and wireless both work great. Thanks Mint team !!!

Hi Pepi,
Nice to hear, and welcome!
It's still in RC stage, but if you stick with the level 1 & 2 updates, you'll be running a stable, full edition before anyone else can download it.
regards, richy

I have to agree with the OP, i installed helena today to test it out, and have not run into any problems yet. so far everything is working good.

I just got Linux Mint 8 up and running on a Toshiba Tecra S2.
The only thing screwy is the software manager. A couple of programs I wanted to install would "gray-out" the Dialogue Box and nothing more would happen. I'm not worried, though, as this is just a Release Candidate. These kinds of problems tend to work themselves out eventually.
Everything else works great.
