Hi folks.

Try this as a https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/...so/Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-40-20240306.n.0.iso --it's still highly stable even pre beta although better than alpha.

Fedora rel 40 with KDE.

Runs Windows VM/s on KVM/QEMU perfectly too.


Download from here


remember this is still relatively unofficial pre-beta software but looks good so please try as a VM or on an external device. Runs windows VM's fine too.

Cheers
jimbo

Hi there
where did you get the Fedora 41 download from or did you manually build it. I can only findFedora 40.

It's the Rawhide project...it's updated daily with latest packages and yeah I think you have to build it manually...

Hi there

Thanks -- I must have had a brain cessation -- It's Rawhide as you say -- Rolling release but V41 is still even pre-alpha so definitely very much AYOR.

All here


Fedora 41, kernel 6.9.x KDE6 on a test laptop -- all working OK (so far) --Native install - not a VM yet. Get fastfetch from the RPMfusion repos -- the rawhide (rel 41) are all there.
