Upgrade instructions:

• This BETA release might contain critical bugs, please only use it for testing purposes and to help the Linux Mint team fix issues prior to the stable release.
• It will be possible to upgrade from this BETA to the stable release.
• It will also be possible to upgrade from Linux Mint 19.3.
• Upgrade instructions will be published after the stable release of Linux Mint 20.

Bug reports:

• Bugs in this release should be reported on Github at https://github.com/linuxmint/mint20-beta.
• Create one issue per bug.
• As described in the Linux Mint Troubleshooting Guide, do not report or create issues for observations.
• Be as accurate as possible and include any information that might help developers reproduce the issue or understand the cause of the issue:
  • Bugs we can reproduce, or which cause we understand are usually fixed very easily.
  • It is important to mention whether a bug happens “always”, or “sometimes”, and what triggers it.
  • If a bug happens but didn’t happen before, or doesn’t happen in another distribution, or doesn’t happen in a different environment, please mention it and try to pinpoint the differences at play.
  • If we can’t reproduce a particular bug and we don’t understand its cause, it’s unlikely we’ll be able to fix it.
• The BETA phase is literally a bug squashing rush, where the team is extremely busy and developers try to fix as many bugs as fast as possible.
• There usually are a huge number of reports and very little time to answer everyone or explain why a particular report is not considered a bug, or won’t get fixed. Don’t let this frustrate you, whether it’s acknowledged or not, we appreciate everyone’s help.
