How much for the next LMDE release?

Postby msx_ on Mon Jan 30, 2012 3:49 am

Is there any plans to update LMDE image anytime soon, specially with new GTK3 stuff?
I'm asking because Ubuntu's bloatness is becoming a no-go for me and I need evaluate if I should wait for next LMDE release or install current image and then make my way updating/upgrading it and _possibly_ losing some "Mintness" on the move - since I do love Mint look & feel I usually try to stick as vanilla as I can to the distro.

Why has nobody ever the patience to look through the last dozends postings or use the search facility? This question has been asked in at lest twenty topics during the last 2 month. So, please search. Yourself.

Being nice pays a lot, being as rude as you are, Arran, don't: you can say same thing in a kinder way.

For everybody else: I indeed found a topic answering my (and a lot of us) question:

Dude, one of the things that affects the quality of help you recive on the board is your language. and going for the "F bomb" isn't going to help. Good Luck
If you don't like it, make something better
If you can't make something better, adapt
If you can't do either ball your panties up and cry

Making a fool of yourself is like masticating.
Most anyone can do it but performing it in public is real hardcore.

Good Lord, sorry to be upsetted because I get angrily answered to an innocent question!
By the way, please, in the future, refrain yourself from comment on topics where you don't know what's going on; in my land we call that attitude "hablar al pedo", google that.

Indeed the response was openly hostile, however despite the fact it was not stated in an objective manner, its point was valid. There have been numerous posts, and even full topics, on the issue ... you were far from the first to pose such an obvious question, and I guarantee until update pack 4 arrives, you shan't be the last. In your most recent post, asked them to google a phrase ... if that was intended as an ironic twist, considering you failed to do your own search prior to the creation of this topic ... touche sir, well-played. If not, I must sadly inform you that such a request is steeped in hypocrisy. Granted, not as steep as me continuing a topic that purely exists currently upon emotional "no you shut up"s solely to point out that you were indeed in the wrong, but hypocrisy nonetheless.

Can we close this thread? Or just keep ranting, whichever works.
the beauty of linux is that the rabbit hole goes as deep as you want it to go.

Why not just point the newb to the relevant posts? Not quite the welcome wagon here? Some forums will bring up recent threads when you post something similar. Me myself I stop coming here a month or 2 then I hear about Cinnamon?

BTW, what is the plan for Gnome 3 in Debian?
The OS: Linux Mint Debian 64 Gnome 3
The Hardware: Lenovo A700 all in one. 4.0 GB Memory, Processor x 4 = Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M430 @ 2.27GHz
Video ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5400 Series 512 MB
The Name: Bob
