Hello Team!
I just had a quick question. How close are we to the release of omlx 6. Not rushing anyone. Just would like to know. I plan on using the sable version as soon as it releases.

It’s ready when it’s ready

I know :wink:

My system bricked yesterday, so I had to install a different distro since the reinstall was unsuccessful. I’m just waiting on OMLX 6 to be released

What was the problem with the unsuccessful reinstall?
If you used a current image, that’s what the release candidates for 6.0 are… So if there’s a problem (maybe unique to your hardware), we’d better try to fix it before the release…

I did a reinstall of Rome but the metadata failed because of the current downloads from cooker to Rome

I reinstalled last night, this morning. Just checking.

It was yesterday at some point. I will try again this evening when I get home.

The repos did come up, probably after you gave up.

Lol. Probably. Did I see that there is going to be an i3wm spin?

Yeppers!

Well then I guess I know what my main DE will be. Lol
I generally use i3wm as it works better for me than KDE and I already have config files setup

I might actually go with Rome xfce, instead of KDE since KDE does not play well with my Nvidia set up

My Rome machine just started a big update (1018 packages) so…

I’ll take a look at it after the update is complete.

Edit - well, it’s a new 6.13 kernel, new glibc and a ton of plasma updates.

Hopefully we’re close to the big sync event.
