You can help Tails! The first release candidate for the upcoming version 3.2
is out. We are very excited and cannot wait to hear what you think about it :)

## What's new in 3.2~rc1?

Significant changes since Tails 3.1 include:

* Upgrade to Tails Installer 4.4.19, which gets rid of the splash screen, detects when Tails already is installed on the target device (and then proposes to upgrade), and generally improves the UX. We are _very_ interested in reports about problems with this new version of Tails Installer.

* Switch from the Florence on-screen keyboard to GNOME's screen keyboard. We know this move has both advantages and disadvantages, for instance very few layouts are supported. Please let us know of any problems!

* The Root Terminal has gone through some significant back-end changes; please make sure it works like before (or better)!

* Add PPPoE support; if you have a DSL or dial-up connection that uses PPPoE, please give it a try!

* Bluetooth support is now completely disabled (details: [#14655](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/14655)). If this makes it hard for you to use Tails, please let us know!

* Upgrade to Linux 4.12.12, which improves hardware support, e.g. better support for the NVIDIA Maxwell series of graphics cards.

* Upgrade to Thunderbird 52.3.0. Ideally it should work exactly like before, or better.

Technical details of all the changes are listed in the [Changelog](https
://git-tails.immerda.ch/tails/plain/debian/changelog?h=devel).

# How to test Tails 3.2~rc1?

* * *

**Keep in mind that this is a test image**. We tested that it is not broken in obvious ways, but it might still contain undiscovered issues.

But test wildly!

If you find anything that is not working as it should, please report to us on
[tails-testers@???](mailto:tails-testers@boum.org).

Bonus points if you first check if it is a [known issue of this
release](https://tails.boum.org/news/index.en.html#known_issues) or a
[longstanding known
issue](https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/index.en.html).

## Get Tails 3.2~rc1

To upgrade, an automatic upgrade is available from 3.1.

If you cannot do an automatic upgrade, you can install 3.2~rc1 by following
our usual [installation
instructions](https://tails.boum.org/install/index.en.html), skipping the
**Download and verify** step.
