Thanks, for helping. F9 got me to the options.
I am sorry about posting twice. I thought that "(solved)" meant my post would not show up here. My apologies.

Re: After installing MX21 : 'grub_register_command_lockdown' not found [Solved]

I have a similar problem. My 5 year old HP pavilion laptop used to dual boot into Windows 10 and MX19. I have used a DVD to install MX21 over the top of MX 19. I have left the Windows installation in place and am reusing my linux /home partition. If I boot into "secure mode" (selecting in ...

Re: Just want to say I love MX KDE!

As an ancient MEPIS fanboy I have been wandering the Linux wastelands with Neon,mint, assorted 'buntus and other unsatisfying partners until now I find you lovely MXers have solved my problem. Even my old forum login still works and some of the old pals are still kicking around the neighbourhood. So...

Re: Presario c500 won't turn off and wireless won't turn on

Thanks to all for your input. As D. Beckett says, the wireless problem was causing shutdown to stall. It was a process which was refusing to die (the "Agent Smith" problem I suppose). I had forgotten that some distros load the wrong firmware for my sort of BCM4311 wireless ship and I have ...

Re: Presario c500 won't turn off and wireless won't turn on

Thanks for the reply. I think I am locked out of the keyboard by then but I'll give REISUO a try. For now, needing to check my mails, I've installed Xubuntu since I know the Ubuntu flavours fit my hardware well. When I have time I'll try MX14 again.

Presario c500 won't turn off and wireless won't turn on

I am trying out MX14 and I congratulate Anti and the team for a fascinating effort. I have a couple of probs though. Firstly, my 7 year old Compaq Presario C500 just won't turm off. I get encouraging shut down messages scrolling down until we get to "shutting down disc [sda1] then nothing furth...
