Beta Release | Endless OS 3.6.1~beta2

The second beta release of Endless OS 3.6.1 is out. Please follow these instructions if you want to join the beta testing program; bear in mind that the chance of encountering serious bugs is higher than in a regular stable release. As always, please ensure your data is backed up!

Except where otherwise noted, all release notes for 3.6.1~beta1 still apply.

Improvements and Changes

  • Chromium 75. The built-in web browser has been updated to version 75.0.3770.100.
  • More reliable dual-boot (un)installation. The Endless Installer for Windows no longer requests write access to the raw disk while installing on UEFI systems. This is expected to fix an issue where some users could not install Endless.

Known Issues

  • Firefox cannot be installed. If you do not already have Firefox installed from the App Center, trying to install it will give an error reading, in part, “Corrupted file object”. We are working on resolving this issue and updating the version of Firefox available in the app center. In the meantime, you can work around this issue by opening a Terminal window and run:

    pkexec flatpak install eos-apps org.mozilla.Firefox
