Linux Mint is an operating system based on the Linux distribution Ubuntu.

Linux Mint adds many features that baseline Ubuntu does not have:

  • More complete out of the box experience
  • Inclusion of proprietary and patented software (Java, Adobe Flash web browser plugin)
  • Running most of software written for Windows with Wine

However, due to issues with licensing, proprietary drivers for things like wireless cards are not included. Though, they can be downloaded for free after installation.
