LINUX: It's official - Mint 17 "Qiana" released to distribution
Jibz:
I'm using the guest additions that were installed with LM here (as far as I know they've been included for a while in Ubuntu and LM?), works fine for mouse integration and shared folders and such.

I just tried Mint17 Mate x64 Live. I just set the params quickly. 2 GB ram, 16x9 video, hw accel etc. But it seemed like something was sticky or strange. Every time I closed the window with the Computer icon, there was another underneath. Finally I clicked Close All Windows to be done with it. Maybe I'll try again after a couple of intervening versions.
