MX Linux Forum

Update: May went by, and Dropbox is still working. I think the notification was being overtly conservative regarding the system requirements to run the Dropbox desktop app.

Update from the installation where I was having the problems (QSI on first post).

I installed the recommended libraries (most, if not all, I already had) and (more importantly I think) I enabled Status Tray Plugin in the panel. After a restart, I got my dropbox icon back, and I am able to access ...

Hi all,

I am writing this from another Xfce computer I use. In this one I installed the required libraries and dropbox is working perfectly. I will check my other laptop later and check whether the proposed solutions work for that system.

This is the QSI for the computer where dropbox does work ...

The error is seen in that I cannot access the dropbox app anymore, so I don't have access to thing like preferences, selective syncing, etc. The exact message I get from Dropbox at startup (dropbox is congifured to run at startup) is attached as an image:

So there might indeed be something wrong with the USB or the image recorded in it. I reinstalled my system and I don't have the iso file I ...

Yes I figured it should, but it wasn't in my case. This is not urgent. I just tested and installed the newest MX version with Xface. But if someone could help me figure out why the usb with fluxbox didn't work, that'd be great

Hi all,

I wanted to try the latest MX fluxbox release, so I created a live USB that is recognized as such if plugged in while my session is active. However, when I try to boot from usb, I get sent to the grub command line.

I have seen instructions to boot from the usb via grub command line. From ...

though I hope that doesn't make it almost useless.

I am afraid that would be the case. The packages in r-recommended are... strongly recommended. They are pretty much essential to work with R.

Still, I am able to use r in my MX 19 computer right now, so there's no rush to get the latest version ...
