There are multiple flavours of Mint. AFAIK they are all Ubuntu based except
for the Mint Debian flavour.
I am also an ex-Ubuntu user, but found later versions to be painfully buggy
and difficult from a UI point of view. I have used Fedora before but found
the lack of packages a nuisance.
Mint is my distro of choice these days. Although, word of warning: Mint 11
has a few bugs, which I'm hoping will be solved by updates. You might want
to use one of the Mint 10 flavours for now.
Cheers,

I note there is a Mint Xfce flavor:

Using only 250 meg RAM means more battery life and a stronger chess

Mint is said to be built on Debian, although I'm not sure I get any of
the details: it's Ubuntu, no it's Debian, not it's Mint!
Thanks for the pointer!
