Re: No Wireless HP 245 G6 Laptop
I had exactly the same problem (and others) with my new HP laptop 15-bw022la. Checking the thread about the issue may also help you: https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=104&t=47678 Also, if you get a weak signal after enabling your wireless connection, try this: sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rtl872...

Re: MX live usb maker error
Just to make sure, is the .iso file that you are using small enough to fit the 8 GB usb pendrive? The only error I've gotten while using that tool has happened because the image file was too large for the usb device.

Re: Portátil Gaming
Lo que recomienda Gerson es cierto. Hay que recordar que por lo general, los juegos actuales están desarrollados para Windows. En Linux se deberán ejecutar con herramientas como Wine, con resultados variados. Por otra parte, el cliente de Steam sí funciona bien en MX pero el rendimiento de cada jueg...

Re: No sound after installing mx18 on HP laptop
Did you try opening a terminal and entering "alsamixer" and then unchecking the automute channel? That has always helped me.

Re: Cannot install MX-18 (HP Laptop 15-bw022la)
antiX, with kernel 4.20 works perfectly after two tweaks: 1- Stevo's suggestion to enable wireless 2- BitJam's suggested tutorial to change the antenna of Wicd. Apparently, the problem is kernel 4.19. But that wouldn't answer why Manjaro's kernel 4.20 gave me the same black screen that I got on anti...

Re: Cannot install MX-18 (HP Laptop 15-bw022la)
@BitJam , @Stevo,
You are the greatest! The wifi method worked! Now I have wireless access. Thanks a lot!
Now I'll try upgrading the kernel to see if that takes care of the freezing.
Thanks a lot!! I'll report later.

Re: Cannot install MX-18 (HP Laptop 15-bw022la)
Maybe Stevo can help you with the kernel stuff. He is a whiz. If it works then we might want to add it to our kernels or something. I wonder if it has already been added to the main branch of Linux? Yes, Stevo has also helped me in the past with issues I thought unsolvable. I don't really know if t...

Re: Cannot install MX-18 (HP Laptop 15-bw022la)
A wifi solution is posted here Realtek Semiconductor RTL8723DE Device d723 issue . It involves building an rtlwifi_new driver from this git repo . Hi BitJam, I tried the first solution and rebooted, but it was not effective. The second one gave me this: $ sudo dkms build rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.201...
