Herbsluftwm is not installed by default.
It is in the MX repo for easy installation.
Haven't tried it yet
Thinkpad T430 & Dell Latitude E7450, both with MX-21.3.1
kernal 5.10.0-26-amd64 x86_64; Xfce-4.18.0; 8 GB RAM

Well, that was interesting.

All I got was a nice green screen.
Nothing I tried got any response?
Right, Left, Middle click: nothing.
Key combinations: nothing.
It was more interesting in antiX. Wonder why?

Because antix customizes it.

You need to use your mod keys. windows key + enter = terminal an so on. Mod4 is the windows key ,Mod1 is the alt key.
Its ok I have installed i3 easier to use , setup and still supported. I like i3

I just turned off the error message anyway.

Thanks for the reply.
