Ugh!
Hello to
everybody,
right now I've updated Slax with Trinity to version 9.5 along with
the final TDE R14.0.5. In addition, I added the
xserver-xorg-video-intel package, which should be useful if you have
a built-in Intel graphics card. You can download at the usual address
- see wiki page:

Cheers

Thakns Slavek,
One question. Does it have systemd?

Anyone know how to discover what Slax version is installed on a USB stick,
without trying to boot it?

You can mount it and see the file date. In January I released Slax with
Trinity 9.3, in April 9.4 and yesterday 9.5.

Got it installed and booted. Here is some activity as tracked by .bash_history:
dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
# Debian console fonts are ugly awful, so I change FONTFACE and FONTSIZE
# in /etc/default/console-setup to "" each. Kernel's default fonts are
# excellent when screen resolution is optimized for my ancient vision
mc
df .
mount -t auto -o noatime /dev/sda23 /mnt
pwd
umount /mnt
mount -t auto -o noatime /dev/sda25 /mnt
mkdir /nfs
mount -t nfs 192.168.1.2:/pub /nfs
# failed
apt update
apt upgrade
# aborted so that new kernel wouldn't waste disk space
apt upgrade fuse libfuse2 mc
aptitude search mc
rpcbind
apt install aptitude
# apt search is miserable compared to aptitude search
aptitude search kernel-server
aptitude search nfs
rpcbind
ip a
apt install nfs-common
mount -t nfs 192.168.1.2:/pub /nfs
# now it works
apt install inxi
df
cd /nfs/Linux/Debian/
ls -l mc*
apt purge mc
apt purge mc mc-data
dpkg -i mc-data_4.8.21-1_all.deb mc_4.8.21-1_amd64.deb
# mc 4.8.18 in Stretch and 4.8.19 later are broken
dpkg --purge xserver-xorg-video-intel
reboot
Some MC activity:
edited syslinux.cfg cmdline:
vga=791 instead of vga=normal
net.ifnames=0 added to restore eth0 :-)
added various bits to /usr/local
On the default TDE desktop session:
1-there is no icon in TCC for session manager
xserver-xorg-video-intel removal has had no detectable detrimental effect on
(two) Kaby Lake (2017) and (one) Eagle Lake (2008) Intel gfx systems booted to
it. Xorg's integrated modesetting driver works a charm.
To shutdown or reboot apparently requires use of cmdline.
No luck so far trying to find where to report Slax bugs found. :-(
