The Linux Mint Community is proud to present a new release of the Linux Mint distribution, this time based on the light and powerful XFCE desktop environment: "This is the first XFCE release of Linux Mint. It is made by and for the Linux Mint Community and it is maintained by Merlwiz79." - says the Linux Mint team. Linux Mint XFCE is based on Cassandra and includes the following mint utilities:

■ mintInstall
■ mintDisk
■ mintWifi
■ xfcemintConfig
■ xfcemintDesktop

Here are some of the most interesting applications you'll find in this edition:
