Linux Mint Debian Edition 6 Review

The new LMDE6 at first glance is smooth, appealing and boots to the desktop pretty quick.My fresh installation took maybe 12 minutes if that.

Had upgrade and some on going problems on two of three laptops running LMDE 6. 6 is alright but I actually think 5 was faster and less hassle. Still overall a decent distro.

Somewhere around this house, I have an ancient 32-bit machine with an earlier form of LMDE installed on it. Considering the hardware and the DE's size, it ran quite well. I never expected to use this device and only installed it because I happened to find it. Still, the experience wasn't terrible. There were obvious limitations and expectations, but it did exceed my expectations. I was quite surprised.

I should dig it out and update it. It was only used for like 30 minutes before I got bored with it.

PAE support in 32-bit kernel​

To guarantee compatibility with non-PAE processors, the 32-bit versions of Linux Mint Debian come with a 686 non-PAE kernel by default. For PAE support, simply install the 686-PAE kernel and reboot your computer.

Type the following commands and reboot the computer:

apt update
apt install linux-headers-686-pae linux-image-686-pae
