Subject: live ISO snapshot

I want you to focus on this link

There's information on the left IPS LED panel, regarding a backup project that I was executing

I'll see if I can link an actual screenshot from the old notebook where backup was running from.

I was using the command from MX Linux mx-snapshot. I've made sure that the target drive has more than enough space, it has about half a TB (1024GB / 2 = 512 GB) space free, which was more than enough to get the project with the size of 6.4 gigabyte squeeze down to about 2.2 GB using the squash FS system. It was quite surprising that the system failed saying that it didn't have enough space on the target Drive. That means that the error which occurred was translated to a message with was not representing what actually happened. I've copied the whole log, which is the reason why I started it from bash, and I will meticulously analyze the log to see what actually happened

It will take some time because the log file is massive, but I shall process it and I will find out what actually happened

@eclecticpassions Same here. Mint on my main laptop. HP Elitebook 16GB/250GB. Love it. It’s very intuitive and an excellent alt for Windows.
#antix on my Mac. #MXLinux is another cousin to AntiX which I’m

Also running Mint on a Surface. Best on so far but missing camera drivers. Cant seem to find the best kernel or distro.
I’m really enjoying testing out the Linux variants.

@eclecticpassions @joel I’m planning to install #antix on an old MacBook as well. Gave a few distros a live version try. Antix for me the clear winnner. #MXlinux #fluxbox was a distant 2nd

@vfrmedia Nice work! Now that I think of it, LMDE should have an Xfce version available but, then again... If you want to try another Distro that has both Debian repos with the Xfce DE, #mxlinux is pretty solid in that regard. Maybe you could give it a try? 😉

Les deseo que tengan un feliz y tranquilo #ViernesDeEscritorio . Hoy con #MXLinux y escritorio #Openbox

For my #FIAF presentation & workshop in Bologna end of the week, I've put together a clean "#PlugAndPlayAI" setup:

#USB #LiveDistro: #MXLinux #GNU #Debian with #Ollama, #LLava and #OpenWebUI in #Docker and #LLM files on another USB3 #nvme

Fast like a local install. Given enough RAM and CPU/GPU.

Scary how easy it is to do that.

Bonus: Creates self-replicating #ISO boot images of itself (in current configuration) in less than 5 minutes. 🤯 😎 .

Wow.

#mxlinux in Farbe und bunt. 😁

so a few hours ago I installed MX Linux onto my Dell Latitude 3189 (I think) and added 8gigs swapfile. It's smooth for an old laptop. I got it from my school's IT dept, lol. #mxlinux #linux #linuxposting

This works for me!

I really like the Tiling options/ interface. Done and done. simple and functional. i may be home!?

as one who spends much time also with an #MXLinux env, @mxlinux y'all out to check out COSMIC.

EDIT: the "Dock" type bar at left, does AUto-close and typically not present. but always there for the screenshot, unless move the window "in front" of it, then it does collapse. cool.

@starlabssystems Hi!
My laptop: Arch (rolling, minimal, flexible)
My desktop: openSUSE (rolling, secure)
Family boxes: Debian (stable, reliable, just works)
LiveUSB: MX (nomadic, works OOTB on any hardware)
Smartphone: LineageOS (much better than Android)
PS: would prefer something fully open/libre (#Guix, #Trisquel, #Parabola, etc.) but some hardware demands blobs...
#arch #linux #gnu #debian #mxlinux #lineageos #opensuse

Mx Linux's support forum is pretty good.

It is why new users like MX Linux and old school users don't. Because some of you, don't feel at home, unless you can rain on someone's parade.

My #linux box just works. It is a very old HP (before they went full enshittification) that originally had Windows 7. I wiped that out and installed #mxlinux as it was moderately light weight and the live USB stick recognized all the hardware without a problem.

Machine boots up to a working desktop in around 43 seconds. It does a check for updates and within a couple of minutes it is up-to-date and functional. This machine runs rings around the work laptop as it at times is five minutes to boot. It may not be a fair comparison as they must run all of the security software that my Linux machine just doesn't need to be secure 😁.

I keep pointing it out to work that it would be nice if I could get a Linux machine, but so far crickets.

… tô pensando em deixar meu fedora 💔💻 não é por falta de amor, é que o AVD simplesmente não funciona direito 😩📱

... tô tentando me adaptar ao mx linux… será que vai rolar? 🫠 e se eu acabar gostando? e se ele me entender melhor? 🫣🔥

aii, esses dilemas de devs apaixonadas por sistemas operacionais 😭💅

gente do céu 😩 testei Android Studio no Fedora com XFCE (q é 100% X11, sem Wayland nem nada 👀) achando q talvez ia rolar... mas não 🥲 ficou igualzinho no KDE, ou seja: o problema não é isso MESMO

no fim das contas só consegui fazer rodar no celular de verdade 📱 tipo... é isso ou trocar de distro mesmo 🤷‍♀️
(e sério, MX Linux tá salvando demais, recomendo 💖)

ser dev é glamour e caos ao mesmo tempo kkkk 😭✨

@Linux not all Linux support forums are like that.

@juengling
Ich hätte noch einen anderen Vorschlag. Mit #MXLinux, kann man ein ISO erstellen. Da wäre mein Vorschlag, dass man einfach sich selbst ein ISO nach eigenen Vorstellung erstellt (mit verschiedenen Desktop-Urgebungen, Auswahl beim Login) und dann kann man die den potentiellen Nutzern zeigen.

Bom dia!
Não tenho ligado o meu computador pessoal, mas hoje fi-lo. Uso #Linux, mais propriamente o #mxlinux, e notei imediatamente quão melhor é a renderização dos tipos de letras.
Uso windows no trabalho, by the way.

@itsfoss
Almost any old Laptop can be made useable again by upgrading the HDD to SSD. Then Linux (eg.g. Mint or MX Linux) works just wonderfully.

(Writing from such an old laptop on the terrace)

The app shown is Dolphin, the file manager, which i tend to associate with KDE Plasma, but it isn't mutually exclusive like that. It's telling of my history as a linux User perhaps: Dolphin will browse the smb:// locations and allow for bookmarking/ add to places. it seems can ALways do that. Nemo i like but sometimes wont do the network. etc. Seem slike once Dolphin gets it, then the others get it. Upon reflection this seems a rather hunt-and-pecking means of getting there. That's terrible! :facepalm:

i'm liking my current #mxlinux desktop environment configuration, except for this:

what is the quick and dirty way to make the icons into ... the reverse?
i guess i'd want "light" version. but i don't even know what setting to go for.

I tried kvantum but that didn't affect it.

oh, but i'm running the Cinnamon desktop !
Doh!

but, still. how to fix that?
