Going from mx-21 to MX-23 can be problematic. Based on Facebook group members experiences, it only works about 50% of the time. I would absolutely not consider trying it from MX-19. It's likely a fresh install would actually be faster, given the time it might take to fix breakages.

Re: KDE Connect won't work
Perhaps it needs systemd? Try booting with that.
From the Wiki:
When the GRUB screen is displayed at the very beginning of the boot process, click on Advanced options… and select to use systemd. Use MX Boot Options to make this the default.

Re: laptop fan won't spin regardless of load [Solved]
Welcome to the forum.
As a first step, have a look in the BIOS/UEFI to see if there are any fan threshold settings. If it's set to 'quiet' by default, try another setting.

Officially, Mozilla does not support using the configuration editor (“about:config”) to change default settings or add custom style rules using a userChrome.css file or userContent.css file.

Thank you; it's been a minor annoyance for me since the change.
Would you be OK with me copy/pasting this to the MX Facebook group please? I will of course credit you.

With nothing plugged in the port, in a terminal do:
Now plug something in, wait a moment, and repeat the command. Can you see the thing you have plugged in added to the list?

Re: May ruffle some feathers... QSI
If every user knew whether a QSI was needed or not, we would get a lot less enquiries!
Some who help out on the forum may not have the expertise to answer an enquiry, but they can at least ask for the QSI to save a more knowledgeable person from having to do it.

Re: Looking for a Mini PC
I've used Intel NUCs with MX Linux and they run great. I've tried various generations of i5 CPUs. They use about 50% of the energy of a typical desktop machine.
Intel are phasing them out, which seems odd.
