Re: Sucess installing WiFi 6 intel 200 ax card?

I upgraded to an Intel AX210 chip in my Framework laptop a month ago and it's been flawless and fast. However, I'm using MX KDE with the 5.19 kernel, so I can't speak to how well the latest 5.10 kernel would handle it since that's the minimum version for the 210 chip. The AX200 has been compatible s...

Re: Important Kernel issue with AMD Vega or Navi Graphics

Thanks for the info on this -- I saw the same problem when I upgraded to 5.10.0-8 last week on my Dell laptop with a Ryzen 5 4500U. Even with nothing open, my machine ran hot, drained the battery, and ran the fan at high speed constantly. I quickly reverted to 5.10.0-5 which, like others, I have bee...

Re: Does anyone really use XFCE panel in vertical or deskbar mode?

I've been running a vertical standard XFCE panel for a while now, and like it quite a bit (especially on my widescreens). To get the placement I have, it's actually two panels. The top one is only for window buttons. The bottom panel is limited to the bottom 60% of the screeen or so, as a way to kee...

[Package request] Shrewsoft VPN Client (ike and ike-qtgui)

I just got a new laptop and upgraded to MX-19.2 and found that the "ike' and "ike-qtgui" VPN packages are no longer in the repo. I utilize the ike VPN client heavily for my work. Both packages are available in the MX-18.3 and older repos, and I've used them for years. Is it possible t...

Re: MX 19 Repository: The Mesa/graphic drivers Thread

Wow, this is awesome. Been running a new Ryzen 3600 on MX since July (beautifully), but have been biding my time on the possibility of a Navi addition -- this opens the door quite a bit wider. MESA-ACO would be incredible.

Re: Using dual displays - 2 issues

Ok, this is weird, after rebooting the PC my monitors are now going into standby/powersave mode, which is awesome. Still have the no saving of the xorg config issue though. Never a bad idea to back up your xorg config. To enable saving through the NVidia Server Config I simply launch it through the...

Re: Daily use of MX Linux (and Antix if you use it as well)

I'm a contract network and cybersecurity engineer. I use MX almost exclusively on all my machines (only booting up M$ in exceedingly rare circumstances, and certainly never when security is at stake). I use MX for all the day-to-day things that everyone else does, but also for all of the networks I ...

Re: Hope for Recent AMD Systems with Audio Problems

Dang, I guess I lucked out. I just rebuilt my older 4th-gen Intel desktop into a Ryzen 5 3600 with an X470 board (and I'm using the built-in realtek audio), and have had zero audio problems, in or out. I'll grab a couple other analog mics I have lying around and see if there's any difference, but so...
