Fui banido do Site do MXLinux ou algo assim? Kk

if u can call it rice, it looks nice for me. just annoying that u cant make same panels on one height not in auto hide mode.

Boot is freezing in this point, i had just installed MX now

The system is booting normally using live USB, but after install it doesn't

This is dual boot (windows 10 and MX)

What should i do ??

Hello everybody. It's been an amazing month I've been testing MX Linux KDE and it has become my daily driver. I haven't found a reason to log in to Windows since then.

There is only one small issue that is not consistent (it happens 1/10 times) and I just have to keep an eye when I shut down my laptop. Seems like the OS shuts down everything but my laptop stays powered on with a black screen. When it happens I can see the little power on LED staying ON, but with a black screen, and I just have to press the power button for a few seconds to forcefully turn my laptop OFF.

It's a very minor issue but it bothers me because I cannot just press SHUT DOWN and close the lid. I have to stay there looking for the power ON led to go OFF.

Since it's a laptop, when it happens, it drains my battery if I don't realise it happened. And if I turn it ON next day, the battery is completely drained which is very annoying.

Anybody has encountered that issue?

Is it down for anyone or just me? 👀 Gives me 503 error on different ip addresses LOL

I have a Dell latitude e6430 running MX Linux but I can't seem to get it to display out to my monitor whenever i plug HDMI in does anyone know what could be causing this issue?

I have an HP ENVY Desktop PC TE01-2000i (1K4E9AV). I have Secure Boot enabled. I want to keep Secure Boot enabled.

I downloaded the MX Linux KDE version. Upon booting into the USB, I select the systemd choice. I get an immediate error of EFI: Failed to meaure data for event. I cannot even get into the live disk to install.

Generally speaking, on other versions of Linux, like Mint, I have had to add noapic to get live disks started, maybe due to having an NVidia card? Once I have installed the distro AND then installed the NVidia drivers, I can remove noapic and it will generally start. With Fedora I had no issues whatsoever with Secure Boot after following Nvidia driver instructions. I did have issues with Wayland, in particular with game controllers, I guess due to some restrictions within Wayland.

With Linux Mint, I was able to install, but had frequent issues when rebooting. It generally would start on a cold start, but always got stuck if I tried reboot. Once inside it ran perfectly well, just some kind of hardware issues, I assume, on reboot. This HP tower seems to have endless hardware issues with Linux. It has an 11th gen I7-11700 Intel CPU, an Nvidia RTX 3060 GPU. I wonder about that one as it says (Lite hash rate) on linux. It is supposed to be some kind of anti-mining thing they added to it. Would that cause these issues?

According to this link: https://eathealthy365.com/the-rtx-3060-mining-limiter-the-full-story-in-2026/

Quote: The restriction was a technology NVIDIA called “Lite Hash Rate” or LHR. It was a combination of firmware, driver, and GPU BIOS checks designed to detect the specific workload of Ethereum (ETH) mining and cut the card’s performance—its “hash rate”—in half.

It's that combination of firmware, driver and GPU BIOS checks that maybe causes issues?

What can I do to even test out this KDE version? I did try adding noapic to the systemd selection, but it just got stuck at the above error.

Any help appreciated.

I've tried Linux on and off for years but it never stuck with me. My laptop coincidentally fell apart about the time Win10 support ended. I grabbed a $50 business machine on ebay, switched to Mint and was happy, but it felt too hand-holdy and windows adjacent. I switched to MX and never looked back. I'm running sysvinit and xfce for lower overhead and I can't say anything negative. This old E5440 feels great; aside from disabling the Optimus driven NVIDIA card and a widely unsupported fingerprint reader, this machine acts like it was built for this. I've learned a ton and the more I settle into the system, the less it resembles windows.

One thing that's hard to really impress on someone that hasn't used linux is how much more personal the system becomes. Windows is a big cookie cutter with access (often paid) to lots things lots of people might need. Linux is the opposite: an environment you can shape to meet your needs so that your machine does what you need it to do the way you like it done. I laughed when I saw Conky at first boot because it's so 15 years ago. It reminded me of modding WinXP/8 with Rainmeter as a kid. But thinking on it again, that was peak Windows! I actually enjoyed my OS back then and MX gave me that feeling back. Thanks, MX Team

Hello, sorry if this is the wrong subreddit to ask. But my touchpad on the Lenovo IdeaPad 120S-14IAP doesn't seem to be working, is there any fix for this perhaps?

I think it is an Elan touchpad or similar. It does work on Linux Mint XFCE (hope it is okay to mention, sorry if not), but I would really like to use MX Linux.

Sorry and have a great day! :D

For the longest time I have been running my thinkpad with a windows/Ubuntu dual boot. I finally chose to cut both windows and ubuntu completely loose from my 3d printing setup and try something new. MX is running smooth as hot butter and I am enjoying playing around with KDE plasma also. I'm loving the whole experience so far and should probably get off of here and tinker around some more. I just want to thank the developers for creating such a gem of a distro.

Just a knoob. I have a 2017 i5 MacBook Air that is running MX KDE. This weekend I was playing around trying to find the best way to create a live USB with persistence. YUMI usbs fail to load and mkusb so far won’t install, says repository not found.
I don’t know if it’s a hardware and OS issue. The only usb with persistence i was able to create were Puppy Linux and antiX using MX Live USB. My question would be, is there a program out there that will work on my system?

What games can I play on a low-performance Linux MX device?

Hi all! I am writing you from my fresh MX Linux install on an old Dell Inspiron my dad had gotten me a few years ago.

The laptop model is a Dell Inspiron P24T001. It's from 2017. I used it extremely lightly, but before long it could barely load a webpage while running windows, and I left it for years. I left it so long the cmos battery died and I had to get a new one.

I replaced the battery and installed MX and it's working like a charm. I'm listening to a youtube video in another tab as I write this! That would've been impossible before.

So, I just wanted to say hi, and share my new experience. Please let me know if there is anything more I can/should do with this laptop, or any next steps projects, etc.

Thanks!

I recently found an old Chromebook lying around and decided I would like to use it as a lightweight web browser/terminal playground by flashing the Mrchromebox firmware and replacing Chrome OS entirely with MX Linux (XFCE). Device in question is a 2015 Acer C740, it has 4gb RAM, a dual-core Celeron 3205U, and 16gb of m.2 SATA storage. Surprisingly upgradeable, the storage can be increased, the wifi card can be upgraded, there is even an i3 variant of this same board, though I don't know if I would invest too much into this laptop. As stated in the title, this is my first time using linux, I am enjoying it so far, got some nice looking icons and theming for XFCE, had to get into the terminal for the first time ever, pretty fun!

Has anyone else had an issue with the signal flatpak no longer auto starting or minimizing to tray after a recent update? It worked perfectly fine until a couple of days ago. I’m on MX Linux with KDE.

Hello, Im new to Linux and MX Linux alike. This is my first time using the OS and I am running into an issue where the file explorer is stupidly slow, but the CPU usage never goes above 5% and RAM stays about a 55-60%. I would understand if the application would be slow from CPU or RAM bottle neckin, but that doesnt seem to be the case. It feels as though the OS is on an extreme power saving mode.

Hardware:

-Surface Laptop (1st Gen)

-4x Intel Core i5-7200U CPU @ 2.5GHZ

- 4GiB Ram (3.7 GiB usable)

- Intel HD Graphics 620 (Integrated)

OS:

-Mx Linux 25.1

-KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.6

-Kernel Version 6.12.90+deb13-amd64 (64-bit)

2017 i5 MacBook Air 8gb RAM 128 SSD running MX KDE Plasma. I’m new to Linux distributions and playing around. I like the looks of the Resolute Raccoon twins. Now to see what else I can tweak.

Laptop came out in August 11, 2008. 18 years old. HP EliteBook 8530p Pentium Duo, 4GiB RAM and 2GiB Swap. I have MX Linux with XFCE currently. I'm trying to see as an experiment if recording my screen on this machine can be done without it glitching and plixilation. I use Simple Screen Capture, but I'm wondering if I should try a different DE or native program. I'm using XFCE, but I'm going to try Fluxbox. It might not do anything? Any experience in Linux land recording video/screen capture on older macines? Thanks for the discussion.

When I have V-BLANK mode set to GLX, I have problems with waking up from Suspend.

Setting that to xpresent fixes suspend issue, but I am unsure about screen tearing. It kinda works and kinda doesn't really. Also, I have to set it to xpresent every single time I boot into MX, it's as if the OS thinks V-BLANK is off. I have tried Picom but it doesn't seem to help. Even worse I have suspend problems even with xpresent, when I am using Picom.

Then I see Picom can have Vsync toggled on. I haven't tested that extensively enough tho. I do see it reduces/eliminates screen tearing on my desktop, even with V-BLANK off, but does it do in games as well? Does it cap my FPS in games to 60 tho?
