Hi everyone,

First of all, thank you for your support and your donation! And many thanks to all the people involved in helping Linux Mint.

Here’s a preview of what we worked on recently, and which will be featured in the next release.

Sensors

A page dedicated to sensors was added to the System Reports tool.

This page lists all the sensors detected on the computer and refreshes their value automatically.

This is typically used to keep an eye on fan speed and temperatures. It can be useful to troubleshoot power modes, battery lifetime, etc.

The list of sensors depends on the manufacturer. Some computers don’t show a lot of information, some do.

Cinnamon Screensaver and Wayland

The new Cinnamon screensaver is ready, and there’s a lot of good news coming along with it!

Until now Cinnamon had a dedicated screensaver program called “cinnamon-screensaver”, which ran alongside it as a separate process within the session. This screensaver was written in Python and in C, it used the GTK toolkit, and it was designed for Xorg.

It looked nice and it worked pretty well but it had issues:

  • It didn’t work in Wayland
  • The transition between the desktop and the screensaver was not smooth
  • Despite a modern codebase, it was complex in terms of design, mainly because it inherited features from the GNOME 2 era, which are largely unnecessary nowadays

The new screensaver isn’t a separate process. It’s Cinnamon itself handling things directly, locking the screen natively with its own toolkit and widgets.

Here’s another screenshot of it, with some of the UI improvements Joseph is working on.

The first thing you’ll notice is the native look and the smooth animation.

The biggest gain of course is the full compatibility with Wayland. Whether or not we want to default to Wayland in the future is a different topic, but we certainly want to have the option on the table. With this new screensaver, the next Cinnamon release will be Wayland compatible.

Screensavers are very important. They need to look good, they need to work well, and they cannot under any circumstance fail to protect the user’s privacy. If the screensaver was to crash, the session still needs to be locked. There’s an extra process dedicated to hiding the screen when that happens. It worked well with cinnamon-screensaver but it took a lot of testing to make sure it did. It works well with the new screensaver also, but it will take time to make sure it’s tested properly both in Xorg and in Wayland. For that reason, even though cinnamon-screensaver will eventually be discontinued, the next Cinnamon will be able to work with either the new or the old screensaver.

Now here’s a little anecdote from our development team. Although the native screensaver has a much smoother transition than the old one, we encountered the very same papercut bug we’ve had for decades on the old screensaver: What looked like a random race condition, which results in the session being briefly visible before the screensaver appears on resume or lid-open. We tried and failed to fix this issue for years, and as we worked on the new screensaver we just realized what was causing it. It’s fixed now, not only for the new screensaver, but after extensive testing also as an update to the old one….

.. so what changed? Why couldn’t we fix this before? The answer is complexity. When we’re dealing with something that happens all the time, even when we don’t understand why it happens, we can change things and see if it continues to happen. This makes it easy to find the cause, and once we’ve a solution, to make sure the solution works. When the bug is random and only happens “sometimes” we’ve no reliable way or finding the cause or testing the solution. This was a random bug in a scenario which involved:

  • The window-manager
  • The screensaver
  • Xorg
  • Logind

It could happen on suspend or hibernation. It could also happen as the result of a timeout, which could lock the screen, or not, or a lid-close event. We handle about 6 different overlapping timers for maybe 4 different ways of turning off the screen, starting the screensaver, locking it, suspending… it’s a huge mess. I didn’t try to calculate how many different scenarios are at play here, but there are way more than just “dozens” 🙂

While I was testing the new screensaver I came across the issue again. This time the window-manager and the screensaver were one and the same, so 3 components instead of 4. We weren’t asking Xorg to stack a new window also… and we managed to reproduce the issue with just locking the screen (i.e. with no logind intervention). This really helped pin-point the issue. In the end it had to do with power-saving and asking Xorg to turn off the screen. For some reason this makes Xorg fail to render events, so even though the screen is indeed locked, the frames don’t update on the screen just before it goes off, and it all happens later after the screen turns on again. It’s a rendering bug.

This is a good lesson for us because it shows us how supporting too many niche features and too many use cases can lead to critical bugs which affect everyone for a decade. I couldn’t explain in layman terms what each of the timers do in the Cinnamon screensaver and power preferences, and that’s a problem. We inherited these configuration options from a time when people had no laptops and their desktop monitors were subject to screen burn. Fast forward 10-15 years and we’re dealing with laptops used outside of homes, where “saving” the screen is irrelevant but “locking” it became paramount.

Back in the days, the main features were to animate the screen to prevent screen burn and allow that to happen before turning off the screen because that took time to wake up. Nowadays we’re in a completely different situation, it’s all about locking it and once it’s locked we want to see our battery level, our multimedia controls, we want to be able to access the on-screen keyboard, switch layout, use the fingerprint reader etc.. 

We’ll go one step at a time here. The next Cinnamon release will keep the exact same configuration options, introduce the new screensaver and keep compatibility as a fallback with the older one. The release after that will abandon the old screensaver, review all use cases and simplify how and when the screen gets locked.

Hi everyone,

Before we start with the news, I’d like to thank you for your donations and for your support!

We received donations from more than a thousand people in December! I know I talked about this before, but I’ll do it again because this number of donors in a single month is unprecedented. I like to imagine that many people gathered together at the same time just to support our project. It’s humbling and incredibly motivating. I feel really proud of this community and delighted to see how happy you are with our work. Thank you so much to all of you!

Mint 22.3

Linux Mint 22.3 was a very good release. It came out later than we anticipated, but it was very well received. The beta phase was longer than usual, but it allowed us to gather feedback, address many issues, and review some of the choices made during that time, in particular around the newly introduced Cinnamon menu and keyboard layout/IM (Input Method) configuration.

Keyboard Layouts and IM

Work continues on improving input methods. It came to our attention that some users like to use layouts which do not match their physical keyboard when using IM. I spoke with someone who writes in both French and Japanese. I do this myself on an ANSI keyboard using French/US and Mozc. He has different keyboards on different machines, some ISO/French, some Japanese, and he doesn’t care about the physical layout. He just wants the logical layout to be French when writing French and Japanese when using Mozc.

This isn’t something we anticipated, but we want to support it going forward. We’re working on making it possible to set a specific keyboard layout when configuring an input method.

Forums

I’d like to apologize to our forum users for how slow and unreliable the forums were last month. The volume of traffic we receive is extremely high, and it’s mostly coming from AIs, bots, scripts, and web crawlers. It got to the point where our server couldn’t cope and people weren’t able to use the forums.

In addition to the Sucuri WAF, it took us a while to come up with an efficient way to filter bad traffic. If you’re getting 403 errors from the forums right now, please make sure your browser is up to date.

We upgraded the server to give it 10× the CPU capacity and twice the bandwidth.

Users and Account Details

For some reason most Linux desktop environments have come up with their own tools for user administration and account details. It’s a pity because this is typically an area which belongs to distributions and which cannot be and certainly isn’t properly handled by desktops. As a result these tools lack support for a lot of new use cases and they’re not well maintained.

In the next release, the Administration Tool (mintsysadm) will handle user administration and account details in editions where the desktop tools can be hidden.

 User management in mintsysadm focuses on the most common tasks. Once a user is set up, that user can set up a password and finalize the account without admin intervention. Home directory encryption, which until now was only supported during the OS installation, is fully supported during the creation of new user accounts.

Webcams are fully supported when taking selfies (i.e. you can see yourself before taking the snap, and decide whether to mirror the webcam or not).

Avatars come with full HiDPI support and look crisp on modern hardware.

Cinnamon Screensaver and Wayland

The Cinnamon screensaver only works in X11. It’s a standalone application which runs in its own process and uses the GTK toolkit. X11 is responsible for making sure it sits on top of Cinnamon’s window manager and hides the windows when the screen is locked.

One of the goals for the next Linux Mint release is to implement a new screensaver which will:

  • Replace the existing one
  • Work in both Wayland and X11
  • Be natively rendered by Cinnamon’s window manager (compositor)

The benefits are significant:

  • Smoother transition/animation during screen lock
  • Better integrated look and feel (We’ll be using the same toolkit as the one made for the panel, menus, applets)
  • Full Wayland support (This is the last missing piece of the puzzle for Cinnamon to fully support Wayland)

This is one of the big things we’re working on right now. I’m not showing you pictures yet until this is ready 🙂

Wayland support so far has been “experimental”. Once all the pieces are in place, we can support it and start testing it as a potential solution. We know there are pros and cons to X11 and Wayland, and we want to support both. Supporting Wayland doesn’t mean we’ll start using it by default, but it makes it a possibility. As always, we’ll end up using what works best for most users.

Longer Development Cycle

If we look back at the last ten years and the projects we invested resources in, we see two things. Well, I see two things anyway, I hope you’ll agree 🙂

I think one of our strengths is that we’re doing things incrementally and changing things slowly. We are introducing change and sometimes it annoys some of our users, but we’re doing it in a way that doesn’t radically affect who we are or the user experience we provide.

Another important strength of ours, as I see it, is that we value our independence and we are able to react and develop our own solutions when we’re not happy with the alternative. We made some bold moves in the past, sticking to LTS, rejecting Snap, developing alternatives to a new GNOME that didn’t feel like GNOME, and I’m really glad we did. These decisions weren’t easy to make and some of them cost a huge amount of time and resources to implement. But looking back, I think they were key. I think we’re first and foremost an operating system: a product, a user experience. We’re also a “distribution”, but we’re not just a distribution.

Whether we “distribute” (for instance with KDE) or we actively develop solutions (for instance with XApp and Cinnamon), we spend a lot of time in release management. Releasing often is important because it means we get a lot of feedback and bug reports when we introduce changes. We follow the same process over and over again. It’s a process that works very well and it produces these incremental improvements release after release. But it takes a lot of time, and it caps our ambition when it comes to development. With a release every six months plus LMDE, we spend more time testing, fixing, and releasing than developing.

We’re thinking about changing that and adopting a longer development cycle. As it happens, our next release will be based on a new LTS and we just ran out of codenames 🙂

Stay tuned, we’ll have more information on this. Obviously the codenames strategy doesn’t matter much, but we are very interested in adopting a longer development cycle.
