Steve,
Correct about Isadora. Linux Mint Debian is based on the latest Debian
testing repositories and is intended as a rolling release to avoid the
'fresh install' syndrome with 'Buntu based distros.
Being a Debian user from the mid 90's, I was keen to give it a try and
once I got over my years old dislike of Gnome, I found LMDE quite
respectable although it's not as user ready as 'Buntu based Mint.
However, LMDE is very young and I have no doubt it will get up to speed.
I installed it on a P3 700MHz desktop with 768M RAM, a P4 3GHz desktop
with 1G RAM and, on an old Acer Travelmate with a 2.4GHz processor and
1.2GB RAM. In all cases LMDE loaded more quickly than Mint 9 KDE on
those machines. USB didn't work 'out of the box' on the laptop and
that's just an observation, not criticism. I think LMDE looks promising.

I believe Linux Mint 10 isadora is based on Ubuntu 10.4. I successfully CVS
with Xastir how to Ubuntu 10.4. The new Linux Mint Debian is a new version
unrelated to Ubuntu!

Subject: [Xastir] New User
I am a new user to Xastir. I just installed Linux Mint 10 and installed
Xastir via Synaptic. I got it up and running in less than 5 minutes using an
Internet Server. It seems to be working great, and I see my position on
aprs.fi. My question regards maps. I also have APRSISCE32 running on a
Windows machine, and I love the look of the maps. On Xastir, all of my maps
are line drawings. I have tried to download some online maps on
/Online/teraserver.geo and /Online/USRadar.geo as well as others. All of the
maps are either line drawings or no maps at all. When I resize the view, I
can see the connection to the server in the lower left corner. I'm sure that
it is a package or something that I am missing, but I have no idea what it
is. I want to set this up at Orlando Hamcation at our Linux Booth.
Thanks in advance!
73,
