Please come and test Ubuntu MATE 15.04 Beta 2

Everything you need is available from the QA Tracker.

Downloading now, I been doing daily builds and have not had many issues with the mate side, mainly ubuntu core items.

Good stuff!

thanks

Thanks,
Downloading. Hope the Nouveau driver loads, :innocent:

So far this best i have seen , just a few graphic glitches in ubuntu software center. Runs smooth FGLRX driver loaded without any issues, still prefer Ambiance mate theme better (just a personal pref) all programs loaded okay, trashing it now. Oh and btw 14.04.2 was good too.

@Wimpy, can I upgrade to Beta 2 without reinstalling? If so, how?

If you already have 15.04 Beta 1 installed, just run the following terminal (Ctrl + Alt + t) command:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

and it should/will update to the latest version!.

If you want to upgrade from 14.10; I would wait for the 15.04 Final to come out and use the software updater tool which depends on your software sources settings if you have it set to β€œNever” where it states β€œNotify me of a new Ubuntu version” in Software & Updates > Updates, you need to change that to β€œAny new version”!.

If you want to skip the above, use the β€œSomething else method” described here:
