Re: running MX on win10 using wsl

You are having some kind of network problem, do you have an IP address? You might might have to run dhclient or dhclient-script, not sure... can you get anything from Internet from the WSL side? apt policy xrdp xrdp: Installed: 0.9.21.1-1 Candidate: 0.9.21.1-1 Version table: *** 0.9.21.1-1 500 500 ...

Re: running MX on win10 using wsl

Here's how to break wsl during an install (I've gotten really good at this): -enable features: windows subsytem for linux windows hypervisor platform...

Re: running MX on win10 using wsl

running MX on win10 using wsl
