Still here and still using Mint most of the time apart from the occasional stray back to XP to use CorelDraw, and being forced to suffer Vista at work (for a few more days at least til my new PC arrives) Mint here i come! lets see how it runs on a quadcore with 4gb ram and 1TB hardrive .... XP will stay in virtualbox...FedoraRefugee wrote:Listen, while you are standing around waiting on them to fix it for you maybe you will run into qbicdesign...Then again, I doubt he is still around. Meanwhile, I am still here, still using Mint without any problems, and still firm in my position, misunderstood as it is.
Installed Mint 6 on my main home PC, and on the whole its very slow by comparison to Mint 5 was - slower I'm afraid to say than XP, so for me Mint 6 is a clear step backwards in performance.
having said that, a few things which I was hoping for have been improved:
- root file editing from GUI is now a lot better
- scanner installation is a little easier than before, tho for some reason i got 2 different scanner utilities in my face on first boot - "xsane" and "scanner utility", anyone know which is better?
