Looks like the MX development team has a good foundation to work off of. I hope they give an option to install KDE Plasma 5 as the desktop and an option for full disk encryption.
I am command line illiterate. :confused: I copy & paste to the terminal. Liars, Wiseguys, Trolls, and those without manners will be added to my ignore list. :mad:

Do you mean try and backport Stretch's or Linux Mint's LMDE 2 version to our present Jessie MX 16? Because there's no Stretch-based MX yet; we're still in the arm-waving stage.

Is our Jessie-built adobeflashplugin package still working in Stretch, for anyone that's upgraded?
