Possible bug:
After upgrading to focal, any attempts to open a hyperlink outside of firefox gives error:
Code: Select all
Could not find the program '/usr/bin/_neon.firefox'

i have uninstalled, reinstalled, and purged and reinstalled firefox, yet this still happens.

false alarm, default browser was broken
setting default from [.sh icon]Firefox to [firefox icon]Firefox fixed it

Any idea for when the RC edition will be published? Also, If i decide to install the preview iso...will the future upgrades of that preview turn itself into the stable version when released? I have a few extra laptops I would like to test install it on with hopes of just rolling thru (with any bugs) that might take place.

Thanks for response back.

We need testing of the upgrade process, which is documented here
https://community.kde.org/Neon/FocalUpgrades

And of the Preview installable ISOs which are here
https://files.kde.org/neon/images/focal-preview/

We need testing of all editions installed as full disk install, selected partiton install, encrypted partition install, OEM install. Please report back with details of what type of install you did and problems you found.

Yes, installing via ISO or testing upgrades will become 'official' automatically.

One thing that I did notice was missing from the get go of my install was that the option for LUKS encryption of the partition using the installer. I even looked for it in the manual setup and did not find it. Was this option supposed to be removed from the Installer?

If i install Falkon Webbrowser on an upgraded system, or on a new installed system, it is the same like in 18.04. The whole webbrowser Windows is transparent, and on the cmd i get this error. Did the Browser dependig on some hardware?

If i do this in the Office with my notebook, it is the sam.

I ran into installation issues with the Developer and Testing editions this evening (20200807). Links are provided below:

https://files.kde.org/neon/images/focal ... 0807-1521/
https://files.kde.org/neon/images/focal ... 0807-1505/

For the Developer edition, the installer halted on an error setting the user password. Installation was partially done but incomplete.

For the Testing Edition, the installer crashed at the disk configuration screen when I tried selecting the disk.

An installation of an physical machine is posible. But on a virtualmachine not. I'fe tested it on Proxmox and on plain KVM. The installer breaks with segfault. :'( Bad, so i can't test anymore my NEON installer without an extra physical machein. https://darkdevil.osit.cc/gitlab/public ... -installer

I noticed the same, at least in some preview ISOs from last week. I think Calamares Installer supports this feature, and the current stable ISOs based on 18.04 have the abilty to encrypt the partition.

So what's happening? Maybe a missing package or something like that? For me, and a lot of us, this is a key feature that should work. I don't know if this problem is being tackled right now.

EDIT: As soon as I said it... The last ISO from yesterday brings back the feature. Good work!

I can't seem to get wayland to start. On my upgraded (18.04 -> 20.04) laptop I receive the following errors:

I had manually upgraded to Focal using the now obsolete and removed methods in the Neon/FocalUpgrades page. Since 20.04-based neon is now live, are we good to go or do we need to change anything to get in line with the latest release?

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I'm not seeing the upgrade message.
Is the availability different based on location or something else?
