A few differences between the two mint flavors exist.
Cinnamon at the boot prompt for install if you type an s and hit enter you
get disk action for a while and you have to have speaker volume really up
for this you hear a chime when the system is ready to go. If you type
alt-f2 orca orca does come up.
Xfce does not do this chime on boot.
I got cinnamon installed and figured to leave a few notes here for anyone
else interested since there are a few notes.
First, on each boot type super-alt-s to bring up orca for your login.
After that, orca goes away.
Next after login type alt-f2 orca to bring orca up for your session.
I got into accessibility frame and visual but wasn't able to toggle
anything as user. Maybe this has to be done as root.
I checked /usr/share/applications and did not find gnome-orca.desktop and
copying it from another location didn't improve orca's performance on
login either.
I haven't tried mint mate yet but for any who run mint mate you have an
idea what you're missing by not running cinnamon and xfce. Cinnamon is
mint's most popular flavor.
