Mint updates driver tool, explains ISO verification utility |
 |
The Linux Mint distribution is making it easier to verify install media and acquire new hardware drivers. The project's September newsletter explains how the ISO verification tool works and shares updates to the Driver Manager utility. "We made the manager run in user mode so you no longer need a password to launch it. Debconf is now properly supported. This was an issue for NVIDIA drivers when SecureBoot is enabled. This scenario was fixed. Packagekit was patched to receive the ability to purge packages (i.e. to not only remove them but to also remove their configuration files). The driver manager now purges removed drivers. This fixes a niche issue with NVIDIA drivers when switching between different versions of the drivers. The user interface was improved. Offline support was redesigned. The Driver Manager now shows a dedicated screen if you are offline: And a different screen if it detects a live USB stick (or DVD). The way it mounts the live USB stick and adds it as a source to install drivers is more robust than before. These improvements make installing Broadcom wireless drivers easier than before." |
