Re: Suggestions on improving MX
I think most of these suggestions make sense but this one is especially dear to my heart: 2) Apply patch to xorg-core to allow combinations with Ctrl+Shift when it's binded to keyboard switching shortcut Thanks for bringing that up! I miss this sorely as many of my old Windows shortcuts are Ctrl+Shi...

Re: The latest bad news.
As far as I'm concerned meltdown - (intel CPUs are vulnerable. AMD owners can ignore) patch for debian kernel (4.9.65-3+deb9u2) is in sources already https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-5754 spectre - 100% resolution is in future hardware. So would never get fixed via soft only. St...

Re: Distrowatch MX-17 review
Personally, I'm inclined to lobby for a feature freeze until completion of a comprehensive and up-to-date set of relevant documentation is achieved. Agree 100%. I would perhaps add the suggestion to instigate a process to rigorously identify and squash bugs before adding new code with potentially n...

Re: Distrowatch MX-17 review
"One of the few areas where I think MX loses out to the big, mainstream Linux distributions is in beginner friendliness". - it's still a fairly beginner / friendliness Linux System - as far as I'm concerned, though. I've read the review as well and I agree with the reviewer. There's begin...

Re: Why MX Linux is my favorite distro
I am currently in the process of switching away from Windows to Linux, with Win7 as my "final" Windows incarnation and MX-16 (after a stint with Arch and MX-15) my OS of choice, with Win7 running in a VM as fallback. To be completely frank, I would never go away from Windows if MS had not ...

Re: correct spacing in Thunar columns
Hm... that's interesting. I also use the default light theme but nevertheless I went to MX Default Look and reselected this... and now it works. Go figure.

Re: correct spacing in Thunar columns
I have unticked that box as well but I still do not get those lines separating the columns which I see in Jerry3904's image. But never mind, it's not that much of a nuisance.

Re: correct spacing in Thunar columns
I am not talking about the added horizontal spacing, I am talking about the separator lines. Even if I add the "horizontal separator = 20" part I do not get any lines separating the columns as shown in your image.
