Hi everyone were about 3 months away from the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I have a feeling this will be the best Ubuntu LTS release yet with Mr. @wimpress leading the development team. As a community we need to start testing now and find bugs so they can be addressed quickly and efficiently. So below I provided links to daily builds for Ubuntu and all the official Ubuntu flavors. Now make sure to run this on a spare laptop and not your daily driver machine as it is a daily build after all.
It is interesting that you are asking people to test the ādevelopmentā releases. Few years ago, this place was brimming with testers. Now, only a trickle.
I can only tell you that I have few 20.04 installs, only they are not the āofficialā ones. Some have come a long way, from one development release to the next. I can only say that Ubuntu is doing well, even with my (franken, as few used to say) installs. Even, with this DE (3rd screeny).
Aha, youāve forgotten Ubuntu-Kylin, which also is doing well with 20.04.
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/ for testing ISOs (just click the relevant links and thereās guides as you navigate the site)
Packages and hardware are meant to be tested also using QA trackers but donāt seem very updated, so some work would need to be done there to get those back up: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Roles/Tester
As the above page shows, probably the best way to get stuck in with testing is, if one can afford to do so, run Ubuntu 20.04 (either download here (this page looks nicer than I remember btw, nice work!) or upgrade from 19.10 with update-manager -d) as often as possible for usual tasks (bearing in mind that oneās productivity and data may be hampered by bugs on 20.04!) and reporting bugs with ubuntu-bug and ubuntu-bug package-name as you go.
Alternatively, there is always a huge backlog of bugs that need to be triaged (i.e., progressed towards being fixed), head to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad for a guide on getting started with that!
The patch uses internal APIs that used to be very stable over time, but a lot of refactoring has happened in firefox lately, and this isnāt true any longer. Almost every new version of firefox now requires non-trivial changes to the patch to keep it working. This time is better spent on fixing firefox packaging bugs and other desktop components.
Installed Ubuntu 20.04 Daily Build today on a Gnome boxes VM. I was stuck on login loop until I choose Wayland. Default option keeps login loop. Also no sound.
Hello. I again have excessive use of RAM by gnome-shell.
I tried to report with āubuntu-bug gnome-shellā, but it doesnāt work, it doesnāt take me to the lauchpad page.
I donāt know if it can be useful but I used sysprof, maybe itās useful (I hope so), but I donāt know how to attach it here.
