I was attempting to set up Fedora 25 with KDE Live after installation, but encountered problems afterward. The virtual machine is configured for 3D acceleration, which functions well on my Debian VM using glxgears. However, once the desktop and file explorer are installed, crashes occur. Rebooting or shutting down causes a freeze during the boot screen. This seems to be a known issue or bug. I plan to try installing a GNOME image tonight to compare results. KDE looked appealing but didn’t impress much.

What environment are you using? Please switch back to X if needed.

The system is operating on x server. After restart, it displays the error "Failed to early mount api filesystems freezing." I plan to install a gnome image once I return home.

Breeze-shell mimics the appearance of KDE.

This question checks if a theme is available for download through a tweak tool, possibly for your Debian VM. The failed API error likely occurs due to network issues, incorrect credentials, or server-side problems.

It's a shell. You likely install it with sudo apt-get install breeze-shell or similar.

Viewing the gnome image revealed the issue during startup: "Failed to Load SELinux Policy, freezing." Seems Fedora isn't compatible with VMware.

It seems the fedora 25 version launches on Wayland by default. This could be contributing to the issue causing the crash.

I've been eager to experiment with the new Fedora for some time, and fixing this issue is the ideal reason for me to try it. I'll share more details once I get back.
