can you get that just by installing cinnamon from Synaptic?
Just thought I would ask because its not as easy to find things in this system as people might think. Also, someone might pop and say "Oh! I just heard they are releasing Mint for ARM next week. You never know!

One, tiny little thing. Is there a chance of running Linux Mint instead of Debian? I have recently gotten used to Mint 19.2 and the Cinnamon shell and really like it. Debian / Mate is certainly not bad, but I love all the extras brought to the table by Mint. Is anyone working on this?
Thanks!
The short answer is that Mint doesn't produce arm images. Even if they did each arm board needs it's own image because there is no bios on the boards.

If you like Linux mint running Cinnamon (I do too), then there is a chance you'll get a similar experience with Ubuntu + Cinnamon.
