I'd do it if I could be bothered to make a disk image... but I can't.

Re: KDE Neon Goes Bionic
I may give this a spin later. Now, which machine should I choose? Maybe the ancient Dell OptiPlex 350, if the extra RAM I've got fits, for a laugh. Oh, bugger. It's a 32-bit CPU. One of the Atom netbooks then. In a VM for good measure.

Re: KDE Neon Goes Bionic
Just downloaded the stable version dated today. Been running Kubuntu 18.04, but have been wanting to try out the Neon as it runs the most up-to-date version of Plasma on the stable 18.04 lts base.
Mint Cinnamon 20.1
Re: KDE Neon Goes Bionic
Will be curious to see how you guys like this. I'm content with KDE Debian 9 and Kubuntu at this point, but more options for Plasma is nice.

Re: KDE Neon Goes Bionic
You must install the 16.04 Neon base then use the upgrade process to get to the 18.04 base. It's strange that the Neon devs didn't create an 18.04 base .iso.tdockery97 wrote: ⤴Thu Jun 28, 2018 4:59 pm Just downloaded the stable version dated today.

If this upgrade works, I'll restore from my backup and redo it. Only a few minutes left in the upgrade process...
