Linux Mint 22 “Wilma” Images Available for VirtualBox and VMware

Linux Mint project recently announced the Linux Mint 22 codenamed “Wilma” Cinnamon, Mate and Xfce editions based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. “Linux Mint 22 is a long term support release which will be supported until 2029. It comes with updated software and brings refinements and many new features to make your desktop even more comfortable to use. Improvements were made for Linux Mint 22 installations to be better localized and to use less disk space than before. Linux Mint 22 ships with modern components and the new Ubuntu 24.04 package base. To guarantee better compatibility with modern hardware, the kernel is version 6.8 and Linux Mint 22.x point releases will follow the HWE series. The default sound server switched to Pipewire. The Software Sources received support for the new Debian DEB822 format. Themes were updated to support GTK4. JXL support was added to Pix and a new thumbnailer was implemented for it. All software using libsoup2 was migrated to libsoup3. HiDPI support improvements were made in the boot sequence, in Plymouth and Slick-Greeter. Until 2026, future versions of Linux Mint will use the same package base as Linux Mint 22, making it trivial for people to upgrade. Until 2026, the development team won’t start working on a new base and will be fully focused on this one…” You can read release announcement and checkout what’s new.
