Cinnamon is a Linux desktop which provides advanced innovative features and a
traditional user experience.

The desktop layout is similar to Gnome 2. The underlying technology is forked
from Gnome Shell. The emphasis is put on making users feel at home and
providing them with an easy to use and comfortable desktop experience.
Import Cinnamon 3.8.2 in wip: Issues / Bugs: - xapps and cinnamon-desktop still sometimes fail to build (g-ir issue) - users need to be in wheel to have a graphically accelerated desktop - the ntp utility to use network time isn't supported on netbsd yet - the gvfs package needs the hal option (until gvfs is updated) - building the Cinnamon packages requires gtk-doc which depends on boost, in the future, pre-configured tarballs will be made available on TNF servers - a reinstall of databases/shared-mime-info is required after installing Cinnamon - No support for translations, network, bluetooth, media-keys, automount, tablet - The login screen / screensaver takes a long time to log-in unless a control or alt key is pressed, weird - Caribou, the on-screen keyboard works but spews a lot of warning messages How to run: Once you've installed cinnamon, run it with: $ XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP=cinnamon exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch \ --exit-with-session cinnamon-session To have the ability to shutdown/reboot from Cinnamon, the user has to be in the operator group. 2018-06-21 09:34:40 +00:00			`Cinnamon is a Linux desktop which provides advanced innovative features and a`
