Howdy, fedi! 🤠

Does anybody out there game on Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE)? If so, how is your experience?

More specifically, have you run into issues running Elder Scrolls Online via Steam on it?

Boosts appreciated, and thanks in advance for any and all assistance.

So, today 14th Oct both my computer operating system has released LMDE 7 and my web site CMS has released Joomla 6. Both are free and open source.

Ya salió #lmde7 #LinuxMintDebianEdition 7!

Hice el upgrade en el sobremesa (aprovechando el descanso del curro xD), que es el ordenador "gaming", siguiendo la guia oficial, y tiene buena pinta.
Básicamente:

Instalar mintupgrade
Ejecutarlo
Seguir las instrucciones
Desinstalarlo
Reiniciar

Con el kernel nuevo, ya puedo poner el mando como xbox, y no como play  

Este finde tocará darle fuerte al vicio a ver si todo está bien 

Linux Mint Debian Edition 7 “Gigi” released!

Linux Mint has released a new version of Linux Mint Debian Edition, called “Gigi”, that is an upgrade over the previous version, “Faye”. This version is a long-term support release, which means that you’ll get package updates for a very long time. This version of LMDE is based on the latest version of Debian, which is Debian 13 Trixie.

This version of LMDE brings new features and enhancements to refine your desktop experience, and is easier to use. This is based on Debian Trixie to align with their update rhythm for packages to ensure that you’ll have the most secure and stable system, while retaining Linux Mint’s aesthetics.

Check the below system requirements to determine whether your computer is able to run this version of LMDE or not:

• 2GB RAM (4GB recommended for a comfortable usage).
• 20GB of disk space (100GB recommended).
• 1024×768 resolution (on lower resolutions, press ALT to drag windows with the mouse if they don’t fit in the screen).

You can download the torrent of Linux Mint Debian Edition here, but you’ll have to use a BitTorrent client, such as qBittorrent (open source torrent client). If you don’t plan to use torrents or are uncomfortable in using Peer-to-Peer clients, you can consult a list of mirrors here.

How to Upgrade LMDE 6 to LMDE 7

Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) 7 has hit the download mirrors! Here is one at a German university: https://ftp.fau.de/mint/iso/debian/

When I downloaded the ISO image yesterday, it still had beta status. That did not prevent me from installing it on my son's laptop. What follows are first impressions from a mixed father & son perspective.

I switched from MS-DOS straight to GNU/Linux and never used Windows much. My preferred distro is #Debian because it is the universal operating system created by a large, global community. I spend most of my time on the command line.

My son is now ready to give up Windows because support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, and he does not want to upgrade to Windows 11 due to all of the malware it comes with.

He installed and occasionally used Linux Mint (which is based on Ubuntu) on an old computer in the past. As Debian 13 (“trixie”) is quite fresh and also rock-solid, I wanted to give #LMDE another try. Many years ago, my parents used it happily.

LMDE comes with the #Cinnamon desktop which looks a lot like Windows. You can download an official Debian live ISO with Cinnamon pre-installed. I tried it, but it clearly has not been configured quite as lovingly as Linux Mint's. No wonder – Linux Mint developed Cinnamon in the first place.

To my mind, this makes LMDE7 the ideal choice for beginners and pros alike. Installing it (even with full disk encryption) is a breeze – if you give it the entire disk to play with. Try to avoid multi-boot installations if at all possible. If you need Windows later, you can run it in a virtual machine. Be sure to make a complete backup of your Windows system first! We used the free Rescuezilla for this.

So far, we have not run into any issue with LMDE7. OK, there was one gotcha: When configuring automatic backups in Timeshift, do not choose the boot partition as the target. It would fill up very quickly.
