MX still has some rough-edges that need worked on – e.g. UPDATE #1 – 6/13/19: From MX Linux part 3 – in a 3-Way Tie! – Tie broke, and MX is running in 3rd – i.e. Well, I had MX Linux in 3rd for a reason…make that a distant 3rd now! Tried Mint and Ubuntu ‘Live’ versions next, and both worked perfectly, recognizing all hardware and software. Well, mouse/touchpad/keyboard barely worked at an incredibly slow pace, and no internet – drivers or something missing. Anyway, had just bought a Acer Aspire 3, 15.6″ Full HD, AMD A9-9420, 8GB DDR4, 1TB HDD, Windows 10 Home and tested the ‘Live’ MX Linux on it yesterday, with the intent of installing it onto the new laptop. Actually, more of a simple fact than a Rule of Thumb. UPDATE #2 – 6/20/19: Rule of Thumb – if you can’t install Ubuntu on it, then you can’t install any Linux Distro on it. I may put the Bionic Puppy on it, just to ‘ Teach’ is a lesson. Worked fine in earlier tests and installations, and on ‘Live’ or full USB installs however, still needs lots of work before I install it to a SSD again. New examples are, it wouldn’t install on my new Laptop ‘Ace’, it wouldn’t allow Mint to be installed alongside it on the ‘Rose’ computer (or even separately), it has problems with Wi-Fi connections (worked great when wired to the router) even after I just bought a new TP-Link Archer C1200 Dual Band Wireless AC1200 Gigabit Router, it’s had mouse problems, etc. I’ll leave it on the USB installation, but have had too many problems with it as a ‘Main’ OS. Works good by itself, but doesn’t seem to want to share a drive with another Linux Distro ( at least not with Mint). I removed MX Linux from its SSD this morning. Pathetic! Sorry for overrating it in the beginning… UPDATE #3 – 8/25/19: Going to remove MX Linux from Karmi’s Top 10 Linux Distros – it just doesn’t belong there, with all the problems it has – plus not being able to even do a ‘Live’ USB test on ‘Ace’ the Laptop without freezing. UPDATE #4 – 8/28/19: MX Linux part 6 – MX Linux 19 Beta 1 testing UPDATE – 8/17/20: MX Linux part 7: w/ *KDE* it’s Movin’ back into my Top 10!!! UPDATE – : MX Linux – ‘Root Login + Xfce to Cinnamon + *NO* Pesky Passwords!’ UPDATE – : MX Linux 21 Wildflower – Cinnamon – ‘*EXCELLENT* Linux OS and also well-suited for Newbies‘ : MX Linux 21.2.1 reverts to an OS for ‘Password Dependent‘ users ![]() ![]() I will bring copies of the MX blog posts over here, and will probably do the smaller updates here also. Better create a Page for MX Linux before the blog looks like a MX Linux Blog, and since it has become clear to me that MX Linux is going to be one of my favorite Linux Distros, at least until another Distro can come along and knock Mint, Ubuntu or MX outta the Top 3. ![]()
