Do you have a list of additional packages and upgrades that you applied
to Mint 6?  And did you reapply them to Mint 8?

Keeping such a list is essential. 

As a bonus, it is trivial to make the list executable. Hint: it becomes
a list of package install commands. Simply run it after a fresh Linux
install. This and related tricks have halved the time it takes me to get
a fresh install working with all my old applications. Since the major
distros issue a new version every 6-9 months doing this is very
worthwhile.
