ISO image issues
It's not wrong. We need replace initial non-working with USB-flash ISO for more older (but identical) without Beta words in menu. ISO has create time 2012.10.17.
Working mirror will have view as this
ROSA.2012.Desktop.Beta1.i586.iso 17-Oct-2012 19:14 1G ROSA.2012.Desktop.Beta1.i586.iso.md5sum 19-Oct-2012 12:02 67 ROSA.2012.Desktop.Beta1.i586.iso.torrent 25-Oct-2012 15:47 113K ROSA.2012.Desktop.Beta1.x86_64.iso 17-Oct-2012 19:14 1G ROSA.2012.Desktop.Beta1.x86_64.iso.md5sum 19-Oct-2012 12:01 69 ROSA.2012.Desktop.Beta1.x86_64.iso.torrent 25-Oct-2012 15:48 116K
You may still download initial ISO (not work from USB-flash drive) from this URL:

- http://cdn.2safe.com/756660033540/ROSA.2012.Desktop.Beta1.x86_64.iso
Run ROSA in basic mode doesn't launch the live mode
There is a mistake in the launching command for this item. Just don't use it for now.
Hardware issues
After installation system fails to boot from time to time
For some video cards (especially embedded in AMD ATI 6300 chipsets) boot process can fail. To solve this problem, edit the following line in the /etc/default/grub file (with root privileges):
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='splash=silent logo.nologo'
and add nomodeset option:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='splash=silent logo.nologo nomodeset'
Then update grub2 with the following command:
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Software issues
Proprietary components are missing, as well as many applications
Enable non-free, restricted and contrib repositories in the media sources configuration.
A message about missing update sources is displayed
Update repositories and possibility to update using GUI tools will be available only after release. Currently you can update to the latest versions of packages from console using the following command (under root):
urpmi --auto-update
A lot of gtk/gtk2/gtk3 errors
There can be errors with gtk applications, or such aplications may not work at all. We will be glad to know about such cases since since update of gtk stack is not completed yet.
DEs except KDE4 don't work
Gnome3 and LXDE are supported by community and may not work properly at the moment. Maybe the situation will be improved in RC
New graphical themes are not applied
Since gtk3 theme for ROSA is not ready yet, there can be some differences in appearance of different applications.
Libreoffice and some other applications display corrupted text and graphics
-create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/exapixmapsoff.conf file -paste there
Section "Device" Option "EXAPixmaps" "off" EndSection
-reboot your PC
