Which iso of OM 6 is safe to use?

Hello,

I’ve downloaded Lx.6.0-snapshot.20250420.3876-plasma6x11.x86_64.iso after starting live environment everything looks ok, but om welcome screen looks like a bunch of random artifacts.
It looks similar to graphic glitches when your gpu dies.
I do not want to install something with errors or bet on that the welcome screen issue is the only issue with that particular iso.

I will try a zenver maybe there will be no glitches

ISO 3876 should be good. I just installed it in virtual machine.
The graphic glitches may depend on hardware :woman_shrugging:
Is this the first time that you notice it?

Remember that you must change the Update channel in Software Repository Selector to ‘Release’ for now

I just put 3851 KDE slim in my 2nd SSD, looks good
Intel b580

I’ve opened new tread in the forum to avoid mess

Try the 3857 ISO.

3876 worked for me with minor issues probably due to plasma 5 configs.

3876 is not Plasma5. And it would be kind of dumb to install Plasma5 anyway. I can understand upgrading an existing Plasma5 system but installing Plasma5 is installing a desktop that will be gone as soon as 6.0 release is official. Plasma5 is history.

@ben79 What I meant was plasma5 leftovers. Sorry for mistake, I was tired and sleepy.

Also I am not sure what is meant by an unsafe iso? There is a big difference between does not work and unsafe. Also a big difference between has bugs and unsafe. Everything in Rock isos has already been through and is in use by Cooker and ROME users so it is unlikely that any Rock iso would be unsafe. At least this is how I see it and this is certainly the intention of those of us in the OM Contributor group.

Damn phraseology. But you right not work does not equal to unsafe. Unsafe does not mean dangerous. But with this kind of word play we can go nowhere or very far with picking up each other words.

For example:
If X don’t work I can’t work with it to perform my tasks therefore, work cannot be done. So it’s unsafe, unstable for certain task / work. So if I depend on tool, to do some work in clearly foreseen and set time period, and it is impossible to do so, then it is unsafe to work or even dangerous, if any let say income depend on or from tool X. :wink:

It is semantic ping pong

@ben79 I didn’t hold a candle next to English native speaker. So give me some slack when I misuse some words when I write something in a strange foreign language that I use once in a blue moon.
I do not try to be purposefully misinformative or something.

Apologies, sometimes I forget that a lot of folks here have English as 2nd, 3rd or so language.
