MX Welcom has a link to the manual section which tells you the passwords for the Live session. Everything is upgraded to the latest version in main and Debian, as well as having LibreOffice upgraded to 5.1.2 from jessie-backports and Qbittorrent upgraded to 3.3.4 from MX testing. The damaged libgs9 package has been fixed, and Dolphin's settings are changed a bit to show the old style text menu. This version is also still using lightdm with the MX 15 theming.

It should be in the download repo soon (1.3 GB), or all the files, including md5 and sha512 hash sums and signature files, are temporarily here:

Great job on this stuff, Stevo! You are singlehandedly making a lot of users happy with this work.

Always keep a copy. Installed them to take a good look also. I had trouble getting used to the movements in the menu on the last version. But Thanks Stevo. They rock.

I wonder why anyone would ever use anything else but KDE. xfce is a sorry excuse of a desktop so the guixsd people need to add KDE too.

one of the KDE distros shipped without kmenuedit which is a shame.

Everyone's entitled to an opinion, no matter how ridiculous it is. Yop seems to be veering into trollish territory, though.

I am using KDE just now, but I've used other DE too. By the way, XFCE should be my second DE. And, diversely of you I can understand perfectly how other people likes other DEs. Anyway, being KDE 4 so good (not the same opinion about Plasma5) it is not the more popular. So, MOST of Linux/BSD users likes OTHER DEs. Period.

Kmenuedit is available via Synaptic, Apt-get, Aptitude, etc. And yes, kmenuedit and kuser are my first installs on most distros. But again, not everybody wishes to modify their menus. And the maximum size for a distro should not be 4,7 GB necessarily.

Of course, this is only my humble opinion, perhaps your is better.

I use both KDE and XFCE. My KDE installation is 'home grown' so-to-speak. But it's used mainly because I'm extremely comfortable in that GUI DE. I have been for years. I've felt no reason to change. But I keep XFCE around. Mainly to stay connected to the community a little closer. It is interesting to delve into occasionally.
