Linux Mint Forums

Hi to all, I have been trying out quite a few distros lately and I developed a very simple procedure to be able to do this with as few hassles as possible. I hope this may help some of the newbies out there. First of all, when installing your first distro be sure to have a separate partition for you...

I'm using Linux Mint KDE (w/ KDE 4.8.1) on my personal laptop, and so far I'm very pleased with it. It is light-years ahead of KDE 4.6.5. I now have to upgrade my workstation (the one at the office, that I use for real work) from Ubuntu 11.10 because Unity doesn't seem to get along well with my grap...

I know basically nothing about KDE but I'd like to learn, especially as well as the KDE version of Mint 12 seems to be working. First three...

I have exactly the same problem. I think the correct solution would be to install the "mint-meta-kde" package, but it gives me some unresolved dependencies I can't figure out: barbomo@capture01 ~ $ sudo apt-get install mint-meta-kde Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Re...
