Linux Mint 11 LXDE RC2 released!

It is now available to download the RC2 de Linux Mint 11 LXDE, after several weeks of the launch of the RC1.

Among the most relevant changes, we have to GDM replaces LXDM due to problems that the latter had presented. I don't understand why the team of Mint does not use SLiM. When using GDM dependencies are being included Gnome and I think, that this can load the system a bit more.
