Linux Mint Debian Edition version 5 has just been released. As I mentioned in my last post, I have switched my laptop to the beta version of LMDE 5.
If you are using LMDE 5 BETA, you don’t need to upgrade. Run the following commands:
apt install network-manager-config-connectivity-debian plymouth-label pipewire plocate
apt remove mlocate brltty
sudo updated
That will update you to the final release.

The time has come to drop Ubuntu. They continue to disregard users and go against their wishes.
So I just downloaded and installed Linux Mint Debian Edition 5 Beta on my laptop. It only comes with the Cinnamon desktop, which is fine. I love the Cinnamon desktop.
I am transitioning all my computers over to Linux Mint Debian Edition 5 as soon as the final release comes out. I suggest you wait as well. Also, do a live boot to make sure everything works. Nvidia drivers seem to be problematic for so people..
