Peppermint OS
Peppermint è una distribuzione Linux basata su Ubuntu e LDXE, nata per essere veloce, migliorando quindi la mobilità e la facilità di utilizzo del proprio sistema (utilizza comunque delle utility di Mint). Si avvia e spegne velocemente (in pochi secondi e non in minuti) avendo tutto concentrato in soli 512MB (per cui anche in modalità live cd/usb da il meglio di sè).
Versione 9-20181222
Questa versione contiene (in Inglese):
-
- Swapped VLC for Xplayer (we’ve had reports that VLC has been getting a little ‘flaky’ for some users over their last few releases). Please see the Release Notes for information on the playback of commercial DVD’s.
- Removed the Linux Mint ‘Levels’ from mintupdate (in line with our update policy, not Linux Mints).
- Fixed the ICE applications ‘Where in the menu ?’ category names, so they now match the Xfce whiskermenu categories (ie. ‘Sound & Video’ renamed to ‘Multimedia’, and ‘System Tools’ renamed to ‘System’).
- Added ‘Accessibility Settings’ utility to the Peppermint Settings Panel ‘System’ Category.
- Added ‘Enable/Disable Neofetch’ utility to the Peppermint Settings Panel ‘Tweaks’ Category.
- Added ‘System Information’ utility to the Peppermint Settings Panel ‘System’ Category.
- Added a ‘Transparent’ wallpaper (so users can now set solid colour backgrounds via the ‘Wallpapers’ utility).
- Added back (by popular request) the Peppermint 7 Respin ‘Peppermint-Sunset’ wallpaper by Ray Bilcliff (as an option, not as the default wallpaper).
- Disabled ‘Switch windows using the mouse wheel’ in the ‘Window Buttons’ panel applet preferences out-of-the-box (it can easily be re-enabled should you want it, but it was proving awkward for touchpad users).
- Disabled ‘Show frame’ in the ‘Notification Area’ (system tray) panel applet preferences.
- Additional wireless drivers out-of-the-box.
- Added ‘build-essential’, ‘rename’, ‘printer-driver-cups-pdf’, ‘cups-browsed’, ‘pmount’, and ‘ntp’ packages.
- Added support for mounting LUKS encrypted volumes (libblockdev-crypto2).
- Added wacom tablet/touchscreen support (xserver-xorg-input-wacom).
- Changed chess game SSB to ‘Better Than Chess’.
- Squashed a few minor backend bugs.
- All updates to date (including the latest versions of mintinstall 4.6.7, Kernel 4.15.0-43, and Firefox 64.0)
