antiX-16.1 (Berta Cáceres) released

antiX-16.1 (Berta Cáceres) released

Bug fix version including all updates from Debian Jessie and scurity patched kernels.

Existing users of antiX-16 do not need to download and install. Simply update via the repositories.

So what is new.

Not a lot! BUT we have included 2 excellent applications: live-kernel-updater and live-usb-maker.

Debian 8.7 (jessie), but systemd-free! And it fits on a cd! Great LiveUSB features!

As usual antiX comes in 3 flavours for both 32 and 64 bit processors.

antiX-full (c695MB) -4 windows managers - IceWM(default), fluxbox, jwm and herbstluftwm

antiX-base (c510MB) -3 windows managers - fluxbox(default), jwm and herbstluftwm

antiX-core-libre(c190MB) - no X. Just enough to get you connected (wired) and ready to build. Uses a libre kernel.

antiX has been designed to be fast, light on resources and flexible.

Install it to harddrive, run it live from a stick or run as a frugal install on a partition.

For more detailed information, see release notes for antiX-16.

Since I know Jerry like stats, I thought I would let users know how antiX-16.1 downloads are going.

According to SF, about 9,000 downloads since release (17 Jan.) of which 6,456 are 64 bit! A surprise there.
No idea about downloads from mirrors (thanks to the devs for setting it up).
Not much activity via torrents since they were very recently uploaded (thanks chrispop99)

Is there a new torrent I should be seeding?

That's really nice to hear, thanks.

Thanks for links, have deleted MX-15, and MX-RC1 clearing up the seeds. I am seeding both 32 and 64 bit versions and they are active already.

Installed the full image on VB. Impressively low RAM usage of 145MB without any other application opened.

I'll try installing the systemd-less MATE on this to see how it works out.

[ADDED AFTER INSTALL]: ooh, nice! RAM at Bootup into MATE = 188MB.

I am still seeding antiX-16.1 via torrents, should I be seeding a newer version as there are not many seeders this morning?

There is no newer version ...yet. Thanks for seeding.

Bonjour,
Je voudrais savoir si l'antiX 16 peut-être en 32 bits i386? avec 586 ou 686 NON pae ? pour un vieux notebook de 2001? Existe-t-il aussi des MX16 ou 15 avec les mêmes références ? Je ne suis pas sur qu'un MX version 16 ou plus bas serait bon pour mon vieux notebook ? merci pour vos avis des téléchargements , au plaisir jibel
