i have this extern HDD.. installed it on that.. and suddenly i cant find my extern HDD on my windows 7 nor in linux, all the stuff i had on it is gone =(((
@daryl1784 if you mean by switching screens, rotating the cube its ctrl+alt and either clicking the mouse and dragging or using the arrows to switch between desktops......
Omg , this is way better than Ubuntu. ubuntu has a lot of bus and it freezes a lot. How come in 10.04 they took out all of the "Extra Animations"?!! .I got so mad. But I'm watching this video and linux mint still has it. And it looks less buggy. Thumbs up!
please help me i went to linux and downloaded it and burned it to a disk and the i rebooted my computer to try to make it work but it just wouldn't what do i do?
@joshuarocks102 you will have to go into the BIOS and make sure your cd drive is the first boot device, if it is set to the hard drive just change it to the cd drive...........
Is the full Linux mint 8 Helena really only £3.99(GBP)? Also am I able to keep my windows vista stuff (I am thinking about upgrading) Like, Microsfot word, microsfot excell, e.t.c. Files that I have made on it. And also is iTunes going to work on it?
The responsiveness is really nice and my computer that is running it is not really all that big. Its a celron dual core 2.0ghz, 2GB of ram, A nvidia 680xt video card, and a 160GB HDD.

@daryl1784 The program you're looking for used to be called Beryl but is now called Compiz Fusion. Hope that helps .

Linux is free to download, you can either dual boot with windows or use WINE to run your windows stuff, itunes etc.

linux mint 8 is light years better than ubuntu man. ive been using linux mint for a year now. linux mint = ubuntu with bug fixes.

I still run Ubuntu as well as Mint and i will say on the initial install Mint is better but after a little work Ubuntu is still right there with it.

Mint uses a glossy version of KDE (which is fundamentally lame)
