“KDE Network Manager: Linux Mint 9 KDE now uses the KDE Network
Manager instead of the GNOME version. The KDE Network Manager
supports Wired Ethernet Devices (IEE 802.3), Mobile Broadband
Devices (GSM, CDMA, UMTS, etc.), Wireless Ethernet Devices (IEEE
802.11) including unencrypted, WEP, WPA Personal, and WPA
Enterprise. It also supports VPN (OpenVPN, VPNC), Dial-Up (PPP) and
DSL (PPPoE).

“New Applications: New applications include ActoneISO,
Bleachbit, Yakuake, Dansguardian, Htdig and Miro. AcetoneISO is a
cool application that lets you easily manage CD/DVD images.
Bleachbit is a helpful tool that lets you free up disk space,
remove junk and protect your privacy. Yakuake is a terminal
emulator based on KDE Konsole technology. Dansguardian offers web
content filtering that concerned parents might find useful. Htdig
is search-indexing software, and Miro offers a large range of video
content.”
