Linux Mint 22.2 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 experience more comfortable.

Sticky
Sticky notes feature rounded corners.

They're now compatible with Wayland.

A new d-bus method was added to reload the notes.

An Android companion app called StyncyNotes was written by Graham Bygrave. It's available at https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.grating.styncynotes.

Login Screen
The login screen looks better than ever thanks to the addition of a blur effect in the panel and the dialog box.

Support for user avatars was also added.

Hypnotix
In addition to fullscreen, Hypnotix now supports two additional modes.

In "Theater Mode" all the controls and menus are hidden so your TV programme fills the entire window.

In "Borderless Mode" hypnotix even hides the window borders and the titlebar. You can still move your window around with the mouse by pressing the 'Alt' key. This is ideal to watch TV when your window is tiled to the side or the corner of the screen.

Hypnotix received performance improvements. It is faster at startup and during search operations when dealing with large playlists.

Hypnotix now inhibits the session when playback is active.

The sound volume is no longer reset when you switch channels.

Fingwit
Linux Mint 22.2 features a brand new XApp called Fingwit.

This application is dedicated to fingerprint authentication.

Fingwit detects if your computer has a fingerprint reader and lets you record your fingerprints.

It then configures your system to use fingerprint authentication for:

• The screensaver
• sudo commands
• Admin apps (pkexec)

Note: If like most users you use home directory encryption or a keyring, the login screen still requires you to type a password. If you don't, you can configure Fingwit to also use fingerprint authentication in the login screen.
