@1fallen , I like the smiley face on the end of your second sentence. A number of years back the dev version had broken wifi for virtually the entire 6mo. run. For some like me that didn’t have a wired network it created some chaos. None of us suspected that either.
I remember that one. @zebra3 thanks for Greets!
I’m lazy, I’m waiting for the ISO, but it still has build failed.
According to my info the ISO’s will post a week (or more) after the sources open which was May 2nd. So sometime next week perhaps.
I opened a PDF this morning for printing off of the Net and it opened with “The Papers” by default. My experience is that it is really decent. I was printing a large multi page from the net and there was virtually no processing time at all. Printing to my HP Laser was fast. Papers is a Gnome supported app that as been in line to replace the previous but not able to make it into Plucky (I suppose).
The page about the iso: ubuntu : Live filesystems : “Ubuntu CD Image Team” team
Things are starting to come in now:
The following packages will be upgraded:
debianutils gcr4 intel-media-va-driver inxi libcpuinfo0 libdeflate0
libfcgi-bin libfcgi0t64 libgck-2-2 libgcr-4-4 libgoa-1.0-0b

Another successful upgrade woot woot on ZFS root.
I did have to rebuild my non stock apparmor profiles, and some did not like the change, and I’m looking into it now. Other than that all good so far! questing.
sudo aa-status --count
[sudo] password for me:
apparmor module is loaded.

┌───────────────────>
│~
└─> sudo aa-status | grep complain
5 profiles are in complain mode.
1 processes are in complain mode.
So far and DON’T Quote me just yet, but it looks like aa-complain is broke currently on my end anyway.
So do you guys already know what you are going put in 25.10 ?
unless i mistook the point of this thread then delete my post.
You mistook the point of this thread. No need to delete, though!

Yep, the only ISO’s on CDI.IMAGE are for ARM systems. I have four Lenovo laptops upgraded to 25.10 Questing. And on a Local network of six laptops. The other two are on Plucky for safety. When the Amd64 Iso shows up (next week) I will give it a run and see what happens.
If anything here in Discourse can make my heart flutter, it is updates to apparmor and Grub on this my ZFS root.
I’m still on the fence with apparmor-complain broken, but I did have duplicates in /etc/apparmor and /etc/apparmor.d and reload helped some:
sudo aa-status|grep -e complain -e enforce -e processes
85 profiles are in enforce mode.
1728 profiles are in complain mode.
aa-enforce
80 processes have profiles defined.
2 processes are in enforce mode.
71 processes are in complain mode.
0 processes are in prompt mode.
0 processes are in kill mode.
7 processes are unconfined but have a profile defined.
0 processes are in mixed mode.
I see very little change after my removals of Dups
sudo aa-status|grep -e complain -e enforce -e processes
85 profiles are in enforce mode.
1728 profiles are in complain mode.
aa-enforce
79 processes have profiles defined.
2 processes are in enforce mode.
70 processes are in complain mode.
0 processes are in prompt mode.
0 processes are in kill mode.
7 processes are unconfined but have a profile defined.
0 processes are in mixed mode.
I’ll wait for some more input first.

sudo apparmor_status | grep “processes are in complain mode” -A 70

No input needed, I found>>>MY<<< mistake
This should not be followed blindly, experienced users only!
sudo systemctl stop --now apparmor
Next:
sudo apt autoremove --purge apparmor
REMOVING:
apparmor* apparmor-utils* python3-apparmor* python3-libapparmor*
Summary:
Upgrading: 0, Installing: 0, Removing: 4, Not Upgrading: 0
Freed space: 4,671 kB
Continue? [Y/n]
Now I feel it’s good enough, so next:
sudo apt clean
sudo apt install apparmor apparmor-profiles-extra apparmor-utils
Now load apparmor if not running:
systemctl reload apparmor
If all is good a short snip:
sudo aa-status
apparmor module is loaded.
2176 profiles are loaded.
151 profiles are in enforce mode.
All Good now!

I’ve been pushing this one super-hard for a few days now.
Today brought Upgraded packages:
Todays Updates
cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep "^2025-05-05.*\ installed\ "
I removed libreoffice on this system, not needed
I’ve begun some personal tweaks for my use, I know it’s very very early but this feels like My Buntu’s of Old!
My sound is as good as it ever has been!! (Combined and Bluetooth)
Still picking at it to find flaws/bugs, but so far I’m liking this.
