Mint 11: The "Un-Unity" Ubuntu desktop Linux I like Ubuntu's Unity interface, but I wouldn't use it all the time, and I know many of you don't like it at all. Like me, you like getting your hands dirty with the operating system and Unity is meant for new Linux users. That's why for day-in, day-out use I'm now using the Ubuntu Linux-based Mint 11. To put Mint 11, Katya, which is based on Ubuntu 11.04, through its paces, I first installed it on one of my main Linux workstations. This is a Dell Inspiron 530S powered by a 2.2-GHz Intel Pentium E2200 dual-core processor with an 800-MHz front-side bus. How well did it work? I was willing to make this shift so fast for several reasons. With the GNOME 2.32 interface, Mint looks as good as ever. There have also been some desktop application changes. I also like the use of Banshee, which has long been one of my favorite media-players over Rhythmbox. Since this is Linux, if you don't like the default applications, you can always replace it.

The most popular desktop Linux is Mint with a GNOME 2.32 interface. Trying to figure out what the most popular Linux distribution is isn't easy. We can safely say that Red Hat's Rat Hat Enterprise Linux is almost certainly popular server Linux. For years, Ubuntu has been the number one end-user Linux, but, somewhat to my surprise, it looks like Ubuntu has to face not just a challenger, but indeed it appears that Ubuntu has already been dethroned by Linux Mint, my own current favorite Linux desktop distribution. I say that Linux Mint seems to be number one now because on the site that tracks all Linux distributions DistroWatch's, Page Hit Ranking list, Mint has been number one for the last week, the last month, and, indeed for the last six months. In the overall rankings over the last six months, Ubuntu remains number two, but recent updates of openSUSE and Fedora have knocked Ubuntu into 4th place in recent days. What happened? MGSE puts a GNOME 2.x style desktop layer on top of Gnome 3.
