- The released version of Mint 0.95 was patchlevel 13. This bug was fixed

- I haven't seen any mention of this bug before, bummer...

- By the way, since the .95 release, there have been 3 more patches sent out -
- the one I mentioned above, and two more bringing it to version 0.96,
- patch level 1. Dunno when a binary for these will be made available.
