Download Linux Mint 7 Gloria Final
It was just a week ago that Lead Linux Mint Developer, Clem Lefebvre, was announcing to the world that work on Linux Mint 7 is pretty much complete and all that is left to do is test the software. It is the same Clem Lefebvre that has now announced the general download availability of this Linux distro. You can download an ISO image of Gloria, absolutely free of charge obviously.
"The team is proud to announce the release of Linux Mint 7 “Gloria”. The 7th release of Linux Mint comes with numerous bug fixes and a lot of improvements. In particular the menu system, the application manager and the upload manager now provide new features such as “Suggestions”, “Featured applications”, “SCP and SFTP support”. The underlying base of the operating system was also strengthened with a new adjustment mechanism which makes Linux Mint more robust and less vulnerable to Ubuntu package upgrades, and the introduction of virtual and meta packages which simplify upgrade paths and the installation of multiple desktop environments,” commented Clem Lefebvre.
Linux Mint 7 highlights:
- Based on Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope
- Linux kernel 2.6.28, X.Org 7.4, GNOME 2.26
