Q4OS Plasma desktop edition, testing

We have just released a brand new Q4OS 2.4 Scorpion edition with KDE5 Plasma desktop environment pre-installed by default. It is a testing release at the moment, based on Debian Stretch stable with KDE Plasma desktop environment. Anyone is welcome to download and give the new Q4OS release a go, any feedback would be appreciated. You can download from the Q4OS Testing releases page:

Keep in mind we don't recommend to use testing versions in production environments.

Re: Q4OS Plasma desktop edition, testing

I installed it without issue and it was running fine in VirtualBox, but when I tried to install Guest Additions it would no longer display the desktop. I tried first with the Q4OS installer and then using the VirtualBox image but it was the same effect with both. I only have 1366x768 screen on laptop so it is better visually with them installed but I will continue to test (after re-installing again) without them.
