Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon Edition – Based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Features Cinnamon 4.6

Linux Mint Team has been released and announced the latest long-term support (LTS) version of its popular desktop Linux desktop, Linux Mint 20, "Ulyana." This edition, based on Canonical's Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa) operating system.

Linux Mint 20 offers users long-term support with security updates until 2025, improved support for Nvidia GPUs and Nvidia Optimus, /home directory encryption, and a new file sharing app with an encryption called Warpinator.

Also, features better resolution in VirtualBox, improvements to the system tray icons with HiDPI support, improvements to the Mint-Y theme on all editions, enablement of APT recommends by default for newly installed packages, Linux kernel 5.4 LTS and a revamped Gdebi tool to make installing of .deb packages easier.

Linux Mint 20 ships with the latest Cinnamon 4.6 which The performance of the Nemo file manager was improved. The new version tries to prioritize content and navigation and to delay thumbnails as much as possible. As a result, the content of directories shows up with generic icons before the thumbnails are rendered, but the improvement in performance is quite noticeable.

In the Display Settings, it is now possible to set the refresh rate. Cinnamon 4.6 also introduces fractional scaling. Until now your scaling was either 100% (normal mode) or 200% (HiDPI mode) and it was the same for all your monitors. With Cinnamon 4.6 each monitor can have a different scaling and it can be set to values in between 100% and 200%.

LibreOffice offers many tools necessary for outlining, but not in an easy-to-use single module. Here’s a survival guide to get the most out of LibreOffice’s outlining features, along with a wish list for a better outlining tool. Outlining is an essential part of a writer’s workflow.

I recently discovered that LINUX OS comes in various forms and that it typically requires far less computing power than Windows 10. This is perfect for the HP Stream I own which is basically useless when running Windows 10. The originally installed programs took up approximately 21gb of the 32gb hard drive. This laptop is not made for upgrade, alteration, or any type of re-configuring of the hardware so my only option to increase it’s stock performance was to use a USB storage device as my “C:” drive. Doing that allowed me to direct any newly installed or stored information to be placed on that device instead of the internal storage. While that helped a small amount, there are non-removable stock programs that would automatically update and take my available internal storage down to 5gb or less. I fought this multiple times and was only able to achieve 8gb of free storage (the minimum required to make a bootable fresh Windows 10 install thumb drive) after deleting many core functions we typically use with Windows 10. My solution was to dump Windows 10 all together and install Linux Mint 20.

After a bit of research, I created a bootable Linux Mint 20 thumb drive using BalenaEtcher. I first downloaded Linux Mint 20 onto my desktop of a separate and far more powerful Windows 10 PC, then opened BalenaEtcher and flashed the drive into a bootable device within a couple of minutes.

After getting my bootable drive squared away, I booted from that drive and tried to install Linux. I encountered multiple errors while attempting to do this (because I have never used any Linux OS and because I kept receiving storage device errors) so I decided to wipe the drive from the BIOS and attempted to give Linux a fresh drive to install on.

This link provided detailed instructions on how to wipe the drive. In my case, the steps were slightly different (BIOS>Security>Secure Wipe), but it accomplished the task. I am now reinstalling Linux Mint 20 again to see if this helps.
