As always, there are some good thoughts for the future as well.

Very cool, it's rare to have a fan in Dedoimedo, and even rarer across releases.

Re: Dedoimedo back to MX Tools
I'm just glad the nvidia install worked. He's running the 340 legacy driver that we had a little trouble with earlier in the year.

FYI: mx "test" repo is not the same thing as debian testing repo.

He also mentioned the MX Tools here: https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/lin ... tools.html
I always like when distro offer fresh, original value to users. Great examples include the Magic Scripts in TeenPup and the likes of MX Tools in MX Linux. These are great additions that really make a difference, and allow the distributions to stand apart.
Re: Dedoimedo back to MX Tools
Very nice. I learned a few things I didn't know.

The default proprietary nvidia driver install even worked on my wife's Macbook! Like Steve Jobs used to say, "it just works!"dolphin_oracle wrote: ↑Fri May 25, 2018 2:10 pm I'm just glad the nvidia install worked.

I just have to find time to backup her home directory and email files, install MX-17 to her hard disk, and then migrate Apple mail to Thunderbird. (Actually, I still have to figure out the best way to do that last step and it might be simply re-downloading all emails from the pop3 server.) In the meantime, MX is still running live persistence from a USB SD card.

Re: Dedoimedo back to MX Tools
I've been a Dedoimedo fan for years, really great, informative reviews and more.

Re: Dedoimedo back to MX Tools
You must remember his first review of MX 14, then. It wasn't good at all, but he made some good points that we took to heart.
Re: Dedoimedo back to MX Tools
He has a good point about visual consistency of the tools, I worked hard to make the tools I'm working on a bit consistent but I'm not that good with GUIs and design... I think we have an issue with the icons of the tools they are not pretty consistent.
