Hi Some time back we had a few mails about rolling distributions, we also had some discussions about Ubuntu deriviatives.
So now comes another major news. Linux Mint is deviating from Ubuntu and going to be based directly of debian and its also going to be rolling releases. see http://www.webupd8.org/2010/09/linux-mint-based-on-debian-released-and.html http://linuxmadeasy.blogspot.com/2010/09/linux-mint-debian-edition-1st.html ** I think this is major development, yes Ubuntu is all powerful, possibly the most installed Linux Desktop. But like all good Open Souce projects one of its forks is attempting something new and striking. These are still early days and 64 bit is as yet unavailable but what it means is that debian fans - who don't want to work too hard are going to get and easier look into debian. ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
