1753467

Tested in Virtual Box VM.
Network icon appeared twice in the panel; both work when clicked upon, though they show the information slightly differently. "Wired connection 1" is bold in one of the menu's; in the other it is not.
I chose Dutch as the language; writer/calc are not in Dutch;
Time in the clock in the panel was off by 2 hours compared to local time.
I noticed bug 1753467
gnome-software does not comply to the screen size; buttons are "out of bounds" and I have to move the window about to be able to close by using the right top corner cross.

Ubiquity window never opened, so I couldn`t set language, keyboard layout and timezone. #1766047.

Ristretto did not show thumbnails of pictures in a USB pen-drive but show from the HDD (I think this is intended, as pen-drives can be slow). A few bugs already reported exists (#1750943, #1758707) and noticed #1766051 when using Pidgin.

I felt the miss of gnome-disks when using Xubuntu.

Very poor performance with xserver-xorg-video-nouveau live bionic beta-1

I'm going to chalk up my "Live Session" experiences to my 2009 Zotac/NVIDIA/Atom motherboard. My success rate is 50%: 1/2 the time I get the correct screen; 1/2 the time I get a fall-back screen. I hope that similar system customers (not many) just go right to install and not bother with Live Session.

This is the best Xubuntu yet in terms of overall quality, stability, performance, and security IMO. It's my go-to desktop since Beta-1.

All seems okay. As a comment, users who don't launch software by typing might be slightly confused looking in an A-Z listing of software for 'Calculator'.
