Re: Great, more pressure to get MX 18 out!
Now kiddos, lets not fight.
testing is more work than people on the internet would have you believe...especially right after a stable release. but antiX does off that option.

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

MX18++ "back to the (near) future !"
Re: Great, more pressure to get MX 18 out!
I certainly do not want to fight! I have tried Manjaro and, after the system "crashed" on three different computers at three different times, I shall not try it again. I do use Antergos (which I like very much - I've used it for over two years on one of my computers [an Alienware AW17R3] and have had absolutely NO problems with it) and my wife uses OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (which she likes) but I think that if a rolling VARIANT of MX Linux were to be offered (not supplanting the fixed release but merely supplementing it as an option), a lot of people might use it. I certainly would! In any case I truly believe that MX Linux, as it is, is the best GNU/Linux distribution available at the present time. I currently use it on my "main" computer [Asus ROGStrix GL553VE] and I plan to keep on using it.

It sounds like someone has a Flux Capacitor. I guess they got it from here. http://kalecoauto.com/index.php?main_pa ... lFbZFNHK-3

Darnit! I never even had the chance to test the beta! :)

Manjaro, Debian testing.
Been there, done that.
It was a good experience to have had.

Re: Great, more pressure to get MX 18 out!
Why all the rush ?? MX-17.1 works perfectly well. I would much rather have an MX-18 that has been properly tested and is bug free, than a rush job where we spend the next few months making corrections.

Re: Great, more pressure to get MX 18 out!
I don't see the need for a rushed release either. Adrian seems to update kernels on snapshots if he thinks it's necessary. But the MX team should develop MX Linux like they always have. It has led to a good distro.Gordon Cooper wrote: ↑Tue Nov 20, 2018 4:59 pm Why all the rush ?? MX-17.1 works perfectly well.

To those who propose Debian Testing, maybe MX Linux is stable because it's based on a stable base, just a thought...
Re: Great, more pressure to get MX 18 out!
I never update the kernels on snapshots, I just do updates that come from the repos (maybe only if there's a urgent ksecurity fix)
