I have 1 iMac (Mint), 1 MacMini (LMDE), 1 MB Pro (MX Linux) and 1 MB Air (MX Linux) from 2011 and 1 MacMini (Mint) from 2014. They all work great with Linux but tbh best with Debian or Debian based distros like MX or LMDE.

Some rough edges getting it right for a TV setup - ending up just using 200% scaling, which does end up making some elements *too* big, but with my older eyes too big is better than too small - but overall I'm quite happy with my new #PCgaming setup. It's #LinuxMint 22.3 (Cinnamon desktop) which is hardly different from the #LMDE I use on my laptop. #HeroicGamesLauncher autostarts in console mode. All #AMD with Ryzen 5 7600X and RX 9060 has given zero issues.

Added my notes for creating separate LUKS-encrypted root and home partitions.

#Linux desktop dla kolegów z biura?

Żonie zrobiłem #LMDE i oboje jesteśmy zadowoleni bo od tamtej pory nie zgłosiła żadnych problemów.

Ale boje się że ludzie poinstalują jakieś gówniane flatpaki, bo Mintowy sklep to #flatpack hub, i będą narzekać że apki wyglądają gównianie i nie mają dostępu do ich plików...

Updated post!

I have a few new installs of LMDE 7 to perform for family and friends this summer, so I updated my "expert-mode" notes for creating a custom disk partition layout:

Wählt man bei der Installation von #Debian bzw. #LMDE "Meinen persönlichen Ordner verschlüsseln", dann gilt das nur für diesen einen Benutzer! Jeder der danach auf dem Rechner angelegt wird (z.B. durch Anmeldung an / Authentifizierung gegen eine/r Domäne), hat erst einmal wieder einen unverschlüsselten Ordner!

Dass man das extra von Hand hintüddeln muss, nervt.

Ich glaube, ich muss mich deutlich umfassender mit Festplatten-#Verschlüsselung unter #Linux beschäftigen, als geplant.

Liberated another PC from the claws of Microsoft.
The 13 years old machine is now running smoothly on Linux Mint Debian Edition 7.

The person owning the machine is happy and feels right at home. It is always nice to see and hear that people feel right at home.

I strongly believe that a vast majority of windows users could switch as their software use cases are already being covered out of the box by most linux distros.

I have come into possession of a Dell XPS laptop with integrated Intel graphics as well as a dedicated Geforce 1650 chip. I've installed #LMDE 7, and it's running fine. It appears to be using the integrated Intel graphics for everything, but lspci shows that the Geforce 1650 is present and recognized.

I'd like to try gaming on this laptop.

The Internet being what it is right now, I'm finding much conflicting information about how to make use of the Geforce card when running games via Steam.

@moses_izumi @amin

I'm doubting it. We've already got #Devuan, #Antix, #MXLinux, and #LMDE.

If anyone's gonna "SALLY HO, ROCINANTE!!" on slop, it'd be one of those guys, and I honestly don't see it happening, sadly.

A handful of folks will hold back versions as long as possible, a handful of folks will do stuff like using tar instead of rsync, a good number more (like myself) will kvetch about it, and we will all clench our butt cheeks until the code kipple consumes everything and we start over with Commodore 64s or VAX clones or something.

:BlobCatFacepalm:

Out of curiosity for anyone using Linux Mint. Do you know if they have a page anywhere that pins the Linux Mint Debian Edition Version to the underlying Debian release version / packages that they are using as the base?

Thanks in advance.

Having trouble getting VMs to run under Oracle Virtualbox on Linux Mint 22 / Linux Mint Debian Editon 7?

Me too!

This Linux Mint Forum post helped me to identify and solve the problem: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=456128

I am running #LMDE 7. Supposedly the problem is fixed in a newer kernel that's not part of the current upstream Debian packages yet. But I can confirm that this worked for me.

You know what's the problem with Linux Mint? It's so damn good.
Apparently yesterday's update borked sth in my Slackware Current. SDDM and then everything stops, usb mouse and kb dead, radio or bluetooth. Look at it later.
Made an LMDE iso, booted with that and start salvaging some files, prior to surgery. Has always worked.
Because I have this Gentoo project to finish 😝

Brasparts: Install-party et redistribution d'ordis Linux, Le samedi 13 juin 2026 de 14h00 à 18h00. https://www.agendadulibre.org/events/35247 #install #linux #redistribution #adieuWindows #gnuLinux #debian #logicielsLibres #lmde #installParty

The #Government of #India chooses, say, #Linux #Mint #Debian Edition as it's official distro.

Then, a utility may be provided to verify the integrity of the distribution and all packages installed as part of the distro.

In fact, with a patch, that becomes a core part of the distribution, the integrity verification process can be simplified and optimized. For instance, #LMDE might include a precomputed checksum file, which is updated with every update.

One action ( CLI or GUI ), and it comes back with the response, "Your Operating System is up to date, and uncorrupted."

Thanks for inspiring this simple #innovation which will really help #FreeSoftware adoption by the masses.

Please keep the ideas coming. Nothing helps the cause better than an intelligent skeptic.

I have only been using #LMDE #linuxmint debian edition since May 5, 2026 and have currently installed 102 apps with #bazaar

I’m switching because I’ve found a distribution that makes my daily work even easier and that I’m really impressed with.

Can you give some examples of things in MX Linux that you really like or that are notably different than LMDE ?

Linux Mint Debian Edition has been my “go to” distro and recommendation for the past couple year, but I am actively exploring other Linux distros and have some fun in the process.

Have you seen the Senpai Respin MX-Cinnamon 25.2 with LMDE’s Cinnamon ?

Anyone who knows me, knows exactly how attached I am to #LinuxMint (LMDE) @linuxmint .

I've been using LinuxMint since version 4.0 and #LMDE since version 2.0, and I've always been extremely satisfied.

Currently, however, a veritable "revolution" is taking place on my computer.

Why? I've discovered #MXLinux @mxlinux in its various flavors, and I have to say I'm thrilled. The ease of use, speed, and usability are phenomenal. Even my almost 15-year-old Packard Bell netbook runs stably and smoothly with it.

Sorry, Clément Lefèbvre, but it seems I've discovered a new "favorite Linux" after many years.

My primary desktop will probably not be updated to LMDE 7 anytime soon; instead, I'll take the opportunity to migrate it to MXLinux as well.

Just to be clear, I'm not turning my back on LinuxMint/LMDE because something isn't quite right! I'm switching because I've found a distribution that makes my daily work even easier and that I'm really impressed with.

Despite everything, LinuxMint remains my top recommendation when it comes to suggesting a distribution to someone switching from Windows.

Therefore, with mixed feelings, I say thank you to Clement and his team for the great work you do. I have really enjoyed working with LMDE, but perhaps now is the time to "discover new worlds."
