Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon
Linux Mint 21.2 is a long term support release which will be supported until 2027. It comes with updated software and brings refinements and many new features to make your desktop experience more comfortable.
Slick Greeter
Slick Greeter, which is in charge of the login screen, was given support for multiple keyboard layouts. The indicator located on the top-right corner of the screen opens a menu which lets you switch between layouts.System layouts defined in /etc/default/keyboard are listed first for easy access. Below that a sub-menu lists all supported layouts.
Touchpad support was also improved. Tap-to-click is detected and enabled automatically in the login screen.
The layout used for Onboard, the on-screen keyboard is configurable.
The keyboard navigation was improved. The arrow keys can be used to edit the password which is being typed. A revealer icon appears when the password is clicked or edited. This revealer can be used to toggle the visibility of the password.
