Re: MX-23 RC3 (Xfce) Feedback thread

Wow, just wow, such wisdom from that woman... My mom shared her experience after wiping Windows 10 completely. This is what she said: "You get the feeling that you're part of something intelligent and all-embracing. And that your not just a would be consumer of all kinds of rubbish at the whim ...

Re: MX-23 RC2 (Xfce) feedback thread

d_o

Ouch...
But the betas worked well I think, so that is clearly a clue how to again make a good minstall.

Thanks for all your hard work. :happy:

Will there be a last candidate released so the last RC can directly roll to final?

Re: MX-23 RC2 (Xfce) feedback thread

d_o What do you think is the origin of all these problems with the RC installer? What changed from the betas? I installed both of those as I always have done with MX isos. No problems, but with RC, immediate difference. I don't recall the host of installer issues in the beta forums. Was there some k...

Re: MX-23 (Xfce) RC1 feedback

Thanks d_o, that was a fast fix, and it worked. Installation was normal, I am posting from a patched installer based install right now. Works great, all my tweaks so far have worked, not done with firefox yet. But installed the usual 240 packages (all those dependencies !), running smoothly after th...

Re: MX-23 (Xfce) RC1 feedback

OK, that worked, the synaptic upgrade to mx-installer was installed. This is on a fresh USB copy, I re-loaded it in my beta2 onto the same stick. I installed the new installer, and hit install, all went as normal. In the partition window this time the USB (sdc) did not appear, but when proceeding it...

Re: MX-23 (Xfce) RC1 feedback

OK, excellent. Nothing new in synaptic yet, I'll keep reloading until I see it.


Any name or version for the updated install file?

All I see install related in synaptic is

Code: Select all

mx-packageinstaller-pkglist 23.07.17 up to 23.07.18

Re: MX-23 (Xfce) RC1 feedback

I am having problems installing the RC 1 also, the partitions are not prepared. This is the same machine I used for testing the two betas, there the install was fine. OK, some detail, I downloaded the iso last night, checked md5, it was OK today, and used the MX Live USB creator from my beta2 instal...

Re: MX-23 beta 2 feedback thread

My MX 23 beta2 is up 20 day now, so far so good. :happy: I noticed firefox was using LOTs of RAM. I have 32G, and 27 was used, when I shut off most applications except firefox, as usual, some "isolated web content" , tabs using lots of memory and lots of CPU, usual firefox memory leaks and...

Re: MX-23 beta 2 feedback thread

OK, I continued with the set-up and tweaking from last night. That 3-D new logo looks good during the boot, I like how the back and leading edges are subtly out of focus, giving a nice 3D look, like it is something BIG. All is running smoothly on this hard drive install. No problems so far, solid as...

Re: MX-23 beta 2 feedback thread

Posting from the beta2 right now. Downloaded, md5 is good, burn to 4 GIg stick using MX live creator under the beta1, and boots fine. Posting from here. I will check the sound, and then hit install to my testing partion, grub to root. Sound card selected with the MX Tools- sound card selector, it wo...
