Download Linux Mint 14

Ubuntu Linux is a popular Linux distribution, but since the introduction of the Ubuntu-developed Unity user interface, there has also been a growing group of disgruntled users. Linux Mint is an Ubuntu-based distribution, which is available with two different desktop environments. The first uses EXTENT, which is based on the deprecated Gnome 2 code, and is intended for older hardware. The other uses Cinnamon, which is based on Gnome 3, but feels like the ‘classic’ Gnome 2 environment. More information about version 14 of Linux Mint can be found on our front page and in the release notes.
