Yes, but inxi says you have both an Intel and an Nvidia graphics device in your laptop. Perhaps you have some setting in the BIOS or UEFI setup that turns Optimus on or offShay2 wrote:Well, is not Bumblebee for multi video cards?

MX 16 unofficial remaster marries KDE to xfce; marital bliss ensues

Maybe worth investigating. But the screen is about the best I have seen.
I see there are posts missing so
1. We are having to log into our routers after all start ups and reboots.
2 How do we get get rid of this home/demo , 2 of us have that and one did not.

Re: MX 16 unofficial remaster marries KDE to xfce; marital bliss ensues
Can you right-click the home/demo one and remove it? Or at least hide it?
Re: MX 16 unofficial remaster marries KDE to xfce; marital bliss ensues
I also remember that Gordon was asking about flat Kvantum themes--I know that it ships with at least 5 included, which can be selected in the separate Kvantum Manager application: KvArc, KvArcDark, kvFlat, KvFlatLight, and KvFlatRed. Some of the other themes may be flattish, too, but I didn't go through them all.

I prefer something like Tipsoo Lake.

Re: MX 16 unofficial remaster marries KDE to xfce; marital bliss ensues
That's a great wallpaper, but I was talking about the style for the windows. The trendy style is for everything to look like it's on a phone or tablet--button's aren't 3D any longer, just simple colored rectangles. No 3D elements at all in the UI.
I see Distrowatch just savaged Jessie-based SolydXK in a review for looking "old" and so "2014", also for shipping the "old-looking" KDE 4 we also have. If they had used a flat style provided by Kvantum, they probably could have made the reviewer think that they were cool and trendy, since that reviewer was clearly clueless about how Debian releases work.
How do I see the comments for that review? They've got to be wonderful.

Re: MX 16 unofficial remaster marries KDE to xfce; marital bliss ensues
The old "if it ain't broke, fix it" mentality.SolydXK caused a nightmare when I tried to get my NVIDIA card working. I tried every work around (including everything I could find on the forums) and couldn't figure it out, so if you can, let me know. The NVIDIA issue resulted in the second, third and fourth complete re-installs of SolydXK. So, finally I decided let's just use the Intel card.
Simple is what I prefer for my old eyes.

Darn, my screenshot of my theming (sprucing up the looks a little and making it more consistent with papirus and adwaita xfce dark for gtk apps) disappeared in the server corruption.Stevo wrote:That's a great wallpaper, but I was talking about the style for the windows.

I was the one asking about the kvantum mgr flat themes. I couldn't find the option for selecting them in the manager UI .
Won't have time to mess around with the kde install the next few days though.

Re: MX 16 unofficial remaster marries KDE to xfce; marital bliss ensues
Click on the "Change/Delete Theme" section in the Manager, and that will expand. You should then be able to see a drop-down list of themes available, and pick another one. They won't take effect until you press "Use this Theme". The tips you will also be able to see are important, too.

KvGnomeDark theme looks almost identical to Adwaita-XFCE-Dark-Thick so it goes with the MX16 default gtk dark theme.
So after changing to above theme in Kvantum Manager, go to System Settings:
a) Application Appearance => Style tab => Widget style = Kvantum
b) Workspace Appearance:
Window Decorations tab => Oxygen
Desktop theme tab ==> Oxygen
