Re: What is the key-combo to unlock the a locked MX screen ??

One question that has not be asked of the OP, AA BB, is have you checked the download is clean? Have you matched the SHA 256 value with the one printed on the download page? It sounds to me as though you may have a corrupted copy. I installed MX19 on an old desktop last week and although I'm not sat...

Re: Dedoimedo: the end of a long, beautiful run?

I've not had much success with 19 on several tries at creating USBs with persistence which keep breaking, and one full installation which went tits up and left the 'puter needing a fresh install (not with 19!). I feel the name 'petito feo' would be better replaced with 'pathetic neo'. Just my opinio...

Version: 19 Rating: 1 Date: 2019-11-05 Votes: 0 Could not install. Got to a certain point in the install and the screen started blinking. Went out and came back in to try install again and the same blinking problem. I never had an install problem with either Ver. 17 or 18. This is a new bug. I am a...

Re: Windows 7 End of Life

I will echo what others have already said - Installing an Operating System is not for newbies or casual computer users. I like the idea of encouraging Windows 7 users to try Linux. But I would never suggest that they attempt to set up a dual boot. The suggestion to use a different computer for Linu...

Re: Live USB with Persist-All Problems - Wait for Next ISO?

Hơi lạc đề chút nhưng tôi nghĩ bạn cứ thử cài đặt MX lên phần cứng thực luôn chứ không cần dùng Live USB. Tôi cũng từng nghĩ Linux có vấn đề với phần cứng UEFI nhưng thực sự mọi thứ dễ dàng hơn cái mà bạn đã tưởng tượng rất nhiều. Trước khi làm bạn nên sao lưu các dữ liệu quan trọng trước. Tôi nghĩ...

Re: MX18 Kernel Update

I'm no expert but have you tried re-installing the kernel update. Do it from the MX Tools / MX Package Installer. Hope that's what it is in the default versions, MX did an update on me last night and made some very unwelcome changes along with replacing the START icon with a picture of a rat! As som...
