MX Linux Forum

It's working! And better than I hoped, it boots straight to MX without me having to press F10 to bypass Windows! I followed the suggestions and sure enough, there was an option to boot from the bootable usb under Legacy, just called "USB Storage Drive". I had previously chosen the one call...

Thanks! Upon following these suggestions, I think my problem will be solved. Isn't installing Grub to MBR the default and recommended way? I didn't change that in the installer, so thinking Grub is on MBR. But I will look and see if there are two different options for booting Legacy and UEFI after p...

Till you post the QSI : "Fast Startup" .. disable that on Windows (but that won't solve this issue, that's a general recommendation as it keeps devices busy for it doesn't really shutdown). To make it clear: It sounds like grub was not installed ... Do you see any Grub menu? Or .. how do ...

Thank you for all the suggestions. First, here's my quick system info: System: Kernel: 6.1.0-13-amd64 [6.1.55-1] arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 12.2.0 parameters: BOOT_IMAGE=/antiX/vmlinuz quiet splasht nosplash Desktop: Xfce v: 4.18.1 tk: Gtk v: 3.24.36 info: xfce4-panel wm: xfwm v: 4.18.0 ...

I have tried all the different settings offered in Change Boot Options, and here are the options I get with each one. Boot mode is set to: UEFI; Secure ...

I think it applies to any program, but I was using Telegram and trying to upload a photo to it. When I click the paperclip icon to post a picture, in the window that opens to select the file, the thumbnails of the pictures are really small, too small to see what the picture is of. I have to go to th...

Ok, thank you. It seems like on a bigger screen it's harder to read, but maybe that's just an optical illusion of sorts. We can just live with it they way it is!

Thank you! Sorry, I said Dolphin when I meant Thunar. I'm actually on XFCE, used to run KDE. Here's my output: [CODE]System: Kernel: 6.1.0-13-amd64 [6.1.55-1] arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 12.2.0 parameters: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-6.1.0-13-amd64 root=UUID=<filter> ro quiet splash Desktop: Xfce...
