As you’re probably aware, the Linux Mint 19 “Tara” release is currently in development, and it’s coming in June based on Canonical’s upcoming Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system with the latest Cinnamon and MATE desktop environments, as well as up-to-date applications and GNU/Linux technologies. One of the new features included in the Cinnamon edition of Linux Mint 19 “Tara” is the ability to configure the maximum volume. In other words, you’ll be able to raise the volume over the 100 percent limit. This is possible thanks to a new setting in Cinnamon’s Sound panel, allowing volume amplification to up to 150 percent.
