Linux Mint snuck around behind Ubuntu's back and had a beautiful redheaded love child with Debian. That child's name is "Linux Mint Debian Edition" (LMDE).
The usual Linux Mint options (Cinnamon, Mate, Xfce) are based on Ubuntu.
To ensure that Linux Mint can survive if Ubuntu were to ever go away, Linux Mint maintains and offers LMDE, which brings some nice features, and comes with Cinnamon.
- Debian still offers the 32-bit option, unlike Ubuntu, which means you can still get Linux Mint in a 32-bit version, but you must get the 32-bit version through LMDE.
- LM Debian Edition is more of a rolling distro, so your software will be more cutting edge.
- Possibly less bugs, since it comes straight from Debian and bypasses any bugs that may get introduced by Ubuntu.
You can find the LM Debian Edition by going to the "Downloads" menu option and looking under "Other Versions". It is currently called "LMDE 6".
