Thank you for your time.
What you described is exactly what I did. I went back to using the older version of Mint Linux that works perfectly
... but bugs won't get ironed out until brave users start testing the new system and reporting meaningful bug reports ;-)
I have one central /home partition and several primary partitions for installing OS. I mount my /home partition on every system I use or test, so I always have access to my data. On each system I use different login name with the same UID number, so I can access my home directories, but my configuration data do not get mixed up. On one of primary partitions I have Mint Linux 11 in perfect working condition (that I plan to use for foreseeable future as my main working system and fallback system) and I have installed the new system to another primary partition. This way I can test the new stuff (and try to report bugs) before switching over.
I consider myself an advanced user so I thought I might try to help with tracking this issue.
