Alright then lads!

Downloading 15.10 alpha1 …getting ready to make it my daily driver and live on the wild side!

I downloaded it too, and the mini.iso. I think I’ll try ubuntu-mate-core first, but maybe only in a VM.

Install Failed, got a Errno 5 input/output error.

I’m downloading again to verify I had a good image…

Downloaded and installed successfully. A few points:

  • It continues to use MATE 1.8;

  • There are a number of significant fixes. The biggest one, in my
    experience, results in certain GTK applications (synaptic being the
    prime offender) no longer having ugly artefacts;

  • MATE Tweak has had huge improvements;

  • There are some excellent new wallpapers;

  • The only disappointment is that bluez remains a long way behind (1.99
    alpha 1). I see that 2.0 has recently been released and, really,
    pre-release software should be replaced ASAP.
