So tell me a bit more about MX-linux please.
Final Q, does this MX-linux have a donation page?
https://mxlinux.org/
https://mxlinux.org/donate/
Thanks Dan, I'll take a look at it tomorrow when I've both eyes open at
the same time. Its been a very long day.
I've been using MX for, I think, 6 or 7 years now. For me the
attraction is that it's pretty much straight Debian, in a form that
makes it easy to end up with a working system with all the multimedia
stuff ready to go, without having to make it all work myself. They
have a bunch of their own MX tools for various things, but I rarely
use them because I'm usually running TDE.
Take care & stay well.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
Hi Gene,
Additional info for if you decide to use MX (or antiX).
Their MX Package Installer* is extremely useful and one of the easiest ways to
install NVIDIA drivers and VirtualBox I’ve ever used. But there are a couple
apps that don’t install well from TDE, so it is best to use it in their
default desktop (Xfce) rather than TDE. (The MX dev’s and I did try to fully
integrate it with TDE in MX19 but we never got all the bugs out.)
Here’s the TDE install page for MX:
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/MX_Linux_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Instructions
It’s only up to MX-19, but I believe MX-21 should be the same. Note: I will
be moving to antiX-21, not MX-21, so I won’t be updating that page any
longer.
Ah, last thoughts, both MX and antiX** have really good Live USBs. Trying
either, or both, first should identify if they’ll help with the issues in
this thread. I’ll bow out now (since I haven’t kept up with this whole
thread), but if you need any MX help just holler.
HTH,
Michael
