There are many goodies shipping with the Cinnamon 3.2 desktop environment, among the most exciting ones we can mention support for vertical panels, sound effects for notifications, revamped Keyboard applet, Qt 5.7 support, setting for the new menu animations, a brand-new screensaver, and many Nemo and Control Center changes. If you can’t wait any longer for the Linux Mint 18.1 “Serena” operating system, whose Beta release should be available in the coming days, you can install the final Cinnamon 3.2.1 desktop environment right now on your Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) computer.
