How to beta test rlxos 2.0 features

[itsManjeet]

RLXOS 2.0 is the upcoming major release of RLXOS with significant improvements, bug fixes, and support for the most requested extensions. You can follow the steps below to test and report on RLXOS 2.0 features.

Set up Device

To receive RLXOS 2.0 updates, switch to the 'staging' channel. You can use your Virtual Manager, like Gnome Boxes or VirtualBox, or use it directly on your hardware. Since RLXOS always saves the last system version before updating, you can revert back to the stable version at any time.

To switch update channels:
sudo updatectl update --channel x86_64/os/staging

To revert back to the stable channel:
sudo updatectl update --channel x86_64/os/stable --reset

Reboot your system to apply changes, of course.

Which features to test?

Before testing any feature, you may need to know which feature to test. To list feature statuses, visit rlxos 2.0, the project board. Here, you'll find all implemented and in-progress features.

You can test all features with a status of 'Done' and click on the target feature to learn more about it, such as its implementation or how to test it.
