MX-14.2 downloads
Re: MX-14.2 downloads
A lot of machines out there are 2 GB machines. Look at the sales figures for average machines sold with how much memory.
Yes, even I am dishonest. Not in many ways, but in some. Forty-one, I think it is.

By the time you read this, we will have hit 20,000 from the Sourceforge server (data as of 9/14):
pae 14,595
non 5,391
TOT 19,986
Both curves (attached) still flat for the last two months.

Re: MX-14.2 downloads
From my own observations, many people have no idea what PAE means.
Re: MX-14.2 downloads
Our download page steers them to the right version in most cases, I think.

I think it depends on what their background is.Jerry3904 wrote:Our download page steers them to the right version in most cases, I think.
Some Windows users may have no idea what you're talking about here:
(and inxi isn't an option for a Windows user)*If you are in doubt about which version you need and have Linux already running, open a terminal and enter inxi -f (you may
have to install inxi first). Look at the "CPU Flags" entry; if it doesn't include pae in the list you'll need the non-PAE version.

Yup, that hint is for Linux users, like it says. We need a follow-up sentence that begins: "Windows users. .."
EDIT: searched around a bit, found that this code supposedly will tell the user the situation:It is supposed to return on PAE machines this:Can anyone confirm that?

Re: MX-14.2 downloads
For XP, RC My Computer, select Properties, look on the General tab. It will say Physical Address Extension at the bottom if available:
Windows 8 must have PAE available as it won't install without it.
