Linux Mint 12 "Lisa" officially released
The Linux Mint development team has, today, officially announced the arrival of version 12 of its popular Linux distribution. The project's lead developer, Clement Lefebvre, also announced the project has made its first income-raising deal with a partnership with search engine company DuckDuckGo. In Linux Mint 12, DuckDuckGo will be the default search engine. Lefebvre pointed to the company's lack of tracking or personalisation based on web history, along with its range of features and a commitment to supporting the open source community, as reasons why the relative newcomer in search, established in 2008, was selected to be the Mint default.
A number of media outlets had taken the appearance of Mint 12 on the project's mirrors as an indication that it had been released, but it was subsequently removed from those mirrors to allow the official announcement to take place. Linux Mint 12, code-named "Lisa", is a major release based on Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" and it includes significant changes to the system's look and feel.
System requirements:
x86 processor (Linux Mint 64-bit requires a 64-bit processor. Linux Mint 32-bit works on both 32-bit and 64-bit processors).
512 MB RAM (1GB recommended for a comfortable usage).
5 GB of disk space
Graphics card capable of 800×600 resolution
CD/DVD drive or USB port
