Ubuntu 24.04, How do I find the version of the Cinnamon Desktop Environment am I using?

Thanks, Mark.

Amongst the many ways - one such from terminal, of several:

apt policy cinnamon

-my bit to try and help-

Try inxi -S

If not installed, sudo apt install inxi

Great little tool for gathering system information, highly recommended.

bashing-om’s approach says 6.0.4-4.
Fantastic.

rubi1200, I found inxi was already installed and
When executed from a PUTTY console, I got the version of the console I was running… Console: pty pts/2. (a bonus)

I went to the desktop and ran the same, and I got Desktop: Cinnamon v: 6.0.4.

Wow, thank you both for this.

Mark.

Glad you got it resolved.

The best way on Discourse to mark something as the solution is to use the checkbox underneath the relevant post.

It is to the left of the like (heart) icon.

Thanks.
