Okay, my Chrome confusion has been resolved. Transmission is running on the server and seeding all four .ISO files.

By the way, IMHO using the torrents for download these huge files is the best download method. It's not subject to mysterious timeouts that stop an HTTP download in its tracks.

It is interesting to watch the torrents' being processed. There were far more seeders for Budgie than the other DEs, which confirms my belief that it's by far more popular (approx. 3:1 among these files) than any of the other DEs.

    Thank you very much for your great work!

    Congrats! 🎉

    Time to delete the old torrents and seed the new ones.

    nvidia 3080 - cannot boot to installer. Same exact issue as Solus 4.1: Nouveau unidentified device error 🙁 I was so looking forward to installing Solus

      gpioneer90 Basic support for the 3000 series of Nvidia cards should come with kernel 5.12 if I'm not mistaken

          Staudey That's very untrue. I've had it working just fine on 5.8 and 5.9 on other distros
          5.12 may be scheduled to bring native support in the kernel, but it still works just fine on 5.8 (or 5.9) and above on some other distros, and especially with nVidia drivers

              gpioneer90 I just meant that basic support in the kernel will come with 5.12. Not sure if other distros bundle the nvidia driver on their ISOs, but that's something that we can't do afaik. Not sure if you can boot it somehow anyway.
              Of course it works fine on an installed system with the current nvidia driver.
              edit: It's actually 5.11, I just researched

                  Good work, just installed the updates without a hitch!

                  Staudey Why is that something Solus can't do? And that's interesting because nVidia 460 driver is specifically mentioned in the change log for 4.2.

                  So are nVidia series 3xxx users officially left without being able to install/use Solus until the next release?

                      gpioneer90 It's mentioned in the package changelog because we ship the modaliases as a separate sub-package that doesn't require the proprietary drivers themselves, which allow the hardware driver tool to be able to determine what driver it should install.

                      Mode-setting for the 30 series just landed in 5.11-rc4 per https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-5.11-rc4-Released. We're on 5.10.12. Any support in other operating systems is the likely the result of them shipping the proprietary driver, which is 1) going to force enable NVIDIA in optimus scenarios 2) be a legal gray area 3) introduce potential regressions for NVIDIA hardware and fallbacks to nouveau.

                      We did not advertise 30-series support in the announcement because it really doesn't exist yet.

                      So are nVidia series 3xxx users officially left without being able to install/use Solus until the next release?

                      That is correct. We didn't advertise said support, it shouldn't be expected at that point. Not our fault NVIDIA has taken as long as they have to get mode-setting into the kernel, they could've done it before 5.10.

                          JoshStrobl Once 5.11 is released, will a new 4.2.x Solus ISO release to be expected? Or are Ampere owners out of luck until 4.3?

                              Let the Year Of The Seed begin! Also, thanks very much for all the continued work you all do, devs and volunteers, amazing work being done 🙂

                                I am glad to report that everything got installed and is working smoothly!
                                I'm one of the guys who had some issues installing with his newer AMD hardware.

                                Great news! Thank you very much for your spare time spent on this pretty cool system!

                                I might repeat myself: I tried lots of Linux distros and this is the first to simply work out of the box.
                                Still very satisfied!

                                Edit: And I know ideas in conjunction with whisky 😁

                                Solus budgie continues to improve. Congratulations Solus team
