Re: Linux Mint 16 "Petra" MATE RC released!
Congratulations on another fantastic release again for the Linux Mint Team. The version of Linux Mint 16 Mate RC works perfectly fine. Tested, and without complaint here. A marvel !!!! Once again Congratulations Linux Mint Team !!!!
Re: Linux Mint 16 "Petra" MATE RC released!
Thanks guys for the latest release. I installed Petra Mate a couple of days ago and everything is working fine. The only problem that I appear to have is there is no login sound and I can't find a way to get it working, it's not a real big deal but I do miss that little greeting note. I also added a lot of extra libraries so that I could install Gimp 2.8.8 and synaptic froze once during the process, I might have overloaded it or something, but it seems okay now.
Some stuff I made using FOSS http://caz747.deviantart.com/
Re: Linux Mint 16 "Petra" MATE RC released!
Same as above - no login sound. I had tested Linux Mint 16 in a virtual box and I had discovered some things:
1. No login sound.
2. In the startup applications there are programs that exists twice like Network and PolicyKit.
3. I don't know what is the reason but AGAIN in the Start Menu there is a bug when I select items with the mouse. The marker sometimes remains at one place while the mouse have a second marker which already is moving.
Except this little things everything worked great! The memory usage was excellent, the CPU usage, no lagging at all - just great! The final version will be my main OS again.

Re: Linux Mint 16 "Petra" MATE RC released!
Well after 9 months of running a dual boot (windows vista/Mate) laptop, I tested/backed up/installed Petra as my one and only operating system!
Congratulations guys its brilliant, everything I have tried works well, even the carried forward solutions for HDMI sound from Mint 14. The whole task took me just 1 hour.
I just love Linux Mate and am learning mopre about it every day. Keep up the good work.

Re: Linux Mint 16 "Petra" MATE RC released!
Thaks for your great work. Here’s a wishlist for the upcoming releases:
- Activating the option: Enable mouse clicks with touch-pad.
- Adding Faenza Icons to your repository.
- Banshee/Rhythmbox should integrate with audio control like old LinuxMint versions: [url]http://i.stack.imgur.com/pZmjE.png[/url]
- Supporting Lyricist and Publisher fields in Banshee.
- USB Image Writer: should be a part of Brasero.
- USB Image Formatter: should be a part of Caja.
- Zim instead f Tomboy.
- Adding a shopping cart to «Software Manager».

Re: Linux Mint 16 "Petra" MATE RC released!
No way to install wine in the 64bit rc.
The ia32 libs no longer exist. And the suggestion of installing all manually fails - see the tread in the Cinnamon version.

What is the error that you get from SPM?
