Interestingly, I ran into an issue with the installer crashing on an older HP laptop. It could not find a suitable partition. Did not expect that after a pretty smooth run with it in a VM.

I have a Lenovo laptop with Solus Xfce. On X11, it's perfect, no issues. I tried Wayland, and there are some issues, but that was to be expected, Wayland on Xfce is experimental. I would totally go for it.

Solus Xfce beta is like the experimental Solus Plasma ISO, before Solus Plasma was officially released. It was supposedly experimental, but I didn't have a single issue with it.

    beevomit Only thing I changed was to move the panel to the top of the screen.

    Same here. The only reasonable place for a dock (IMHO) is at the bottom.

      beevomit I like the main panel at the top, and I add a second on the bottom. I think XFCE is the perfect example of what a linux DE should be. Customizable and modular.

          amit025 I think XFCE is the perfect example of what a linux DE should be. Customizable and modular.

          And I think KDE plasma is the perfect example of what a modern linux DE should be. Customizable and modular.

              AlphaElwedritsch For whatever reason, I have never taken a shine for KDE. Not saying it isn't great.

                AlphaElwedritsch yes, I think it's really time to remove the beta flag.
                maybe it was just forgotten 😉

                We have not forgotten. We intentionally left the Beta tag on Xfce for now, while we are polishing our distribution of it. We'll remove the tag when the team feels the DE experience meets our quality standards.

                    TraceyC changed the title to How stable is the Xfce edition? .

                    TraceyC As a person that does not have the time for much troubleshoot, I will say that it is really nice. Once I get my audio out issues resolved, it will be perfect for my purposes! Thanks for the hard work on the edition!
