MX Linux Forum

I guess my next efforts will be to try the other newer Debian kernels. I have gotten farther with MX than antiX, but not far enough to make the TV screen try to switch. On Devuan, at that point it goes black for a second and then I get a message on the PC saying its starting to stream.

I installed the package sources, but can't find the error messages in them with grep, so its beyond by ability even to figure out what the cause of the messages are.

It bothers me that on the same machine, Devuan works and MX doesn't.

Using MX 23.2 64 bit XFCE and installed the programs from the repos, and then installed the 6.4 kernel, but the result was still the Error box. Any suggestions? Here is the detail: $ G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all gnome-network-displays (gnome-network-displays:7737): GLib-GIO-DEBUG: 04:46:09.342: Using cross-...

@fan_of_LTS, Where can I get the 6.4 kernel?

Nevermind, I found it and am installing it now...

Here are the same outputs from the same PC connecting to the same TV from Devuan. It connected for just a moment, then failed. It takes a couple tries usually, but then works. bobc@dell-e5540:~$ sudo iw dev [sudo] password for bobc: phy#0 Unnamed/non-netdev interface wdev 0x2 addr 80:86:f2:6c:4d:f0 ...

I have tried 23.2 AHS, and XFCE, as well as Fluxbox. I installed to the SSD and updated the OS before installing any software. I have tried installed with flatpak and from synaptic. All were on the same Dell E5540 laptop that I have it working on Devuan (which was installed from synaptic). They all ...

@fan_of_LTS, thanks for the helpful post. I believe the AH MX version I was trying has the Liquorix kernel, so it's possible that was a factor. Its also good to know someone has it running, and that you got it working with the flatpak.

I have been trying the different flavors of MX 64, and reloaded with the standard XFCE 64 version, and was trying to use a flatpak, instead of adding packages, but ran out of space in the partition. I will post the details after I rearrange the drive. I did get it to work under Devuan, but haven't h...

It requires network manager. Any tips on how to configure MX with it?

I have to say it is the most user friendly Fluxbox based distro I've ever tried. Kudos to the Devs for that.
