Linux Mint team announced the final version of Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa based on Ubuntu 14.04.3 Trusty. It is available in Cinnamon and Mate editions, this release includes application updates and hardware driver updates. Linux Mint 17.3 is a long term support release which will be supported until 2019. It comes with updated software and brings refinements and many new features to make your desktop experience more comfortable to use. The Update Manager now also performs more checks than before: it prevents you from damaging the system if that mirror (or your local cache) is corrupted and it shows a little hint even when everything is fine if faster mirrors are available. The Driver Manager is more robust than before. It refreshes the cache before looking for drivers and reports update and installation errors if appropriate, drivers are now sorted by status and the Driver Manager now indicates if drivers are Open Source or not.
