I gave it a run in Live mode....seemed ok....I didnt have much time to spend with it
When I have time, I will install it fully to a spare ssd.....and spend a bit more time with it.
It's performance will change quite a bit between now and when the final release is made.
I am sometimes wary of downloads from sites other than the linuxmint.com site

I might give it a run in live tomorrow. For an install i will wait for Mint to put it up.
Dave you had best take a look here, it could be a dud

...although the source is a well-known Dutch download server IIRC.

BTW I note that the Beta has not appeared on DistroWatch yet.
I'll qualify that, I notice you were asking after it at Linux Mint Community.
Did they provide the NLUUG reference?

Checked on mine:
Brian if you get time can you give us
?
That may work on the iso.
Code:
cat /etc/*release?
That may work on the iso.

Someone mentioned to me that there was a new app named Matrix......and sure enough it is there !
Very strange

Ta for that bro'
Well, the Ubuntu codename is Noble, so that matches 24.04
I wonder if it is a bug in a legit Beta that is reporting Jammy in terms of what the inxi output is picking up?
I guess we wait and see.

My last input for the evening is as follows:
1. I went to the NLUUG site Dave referenced. There, I opened the link to the shasum algorithms, and they had 256 for Cinnamon, MATE and Xfce.
2. I post them in my search engine and the only result I got was for a Reddit thread here
3. In that thread someone else posted a link to another Netherlands site here
https://linuxmint.mirror.liteserver.nl/testing/
4. I checked its shasums and they were the same, they matched.
That being said, I find it unusual that the only references I can see for the Beta being available are two sites from Netherlands.
I will hope for clarification on my tomorrow.
Cheers

Amen. Someone somewhere has been doing some fiddling, methinks.
Ye, Disreguard that site, It is a beta , but not the official one and does not have everything. I only tried it live and it worked ok , but had a lot of stuff missing. -- Clem will announce the official beta when it's ready on DW and in the Mint Forums.
Thank Wiz for letting me know.

Don't download this one. It's not ready yet.
@noelw gets the kudos, he showed Brian and me the inxi output in his thread "My Mistake"

I'm disappointed that mint 22 is still in unstable version for Wayland!
