Linux Mint 11 “Katya” released!

[jdog]

Clement Lefebvre has announced the release of Linux Mint 11, code name "Katya": "The team is proud to announce the release of Linux Mint 11 'Katya'." This release brings improvements to software manager's user interface, new artwork, various system changes, and usability improvements to the update manager: "One of the biggest improvements made to the Update Manager is how it now handles dependencies. It only shows updates, not their dependencies. If the upgrade of a package requires additional changes to your system a dialog pops up with a summary to show you which packages will be installed or removed. This brings a permanent fix to the notorious 'Broken packages' message that used to appear before."

About to install the 64Bit version shortly, I like this new version more than the LMDE version for compatibility...

I got it running on a Lenovo T61 at work. Runs smooth as butter. Going to try and get a laptop soon and will definitely put Linux Mint on it. By far the most compatible and easiest to use distro there is. I even tried Fedora 15 out too. I like the new Gnome 3.0 but Fedora is still not cut out for a personal laptop IMO. It's more suited for desktops or server environments.
