I would like to install MX 23.3 only the operating system, i.e. quasi naked without programmes

Is there a ready solution?
e.G ISO or internetbased installation?

Regards
Karl

I have found a way to play nearly all ripped Blu-Rays, made with makemkv, under MX 23.3

Good evening (German time),
My family only owns one Blu-Ray player.

Now I was finally fed up with constantly being asked to connect the player somewhere else, depending on whether my daughter or son or my wife and - last but not least - myself wanted to watch one of our Blu-Rays on her/ my TV.

Looking for good and reliable dictation software for MX

Hello, everybody.

The only dictation software I have found in the repos is PocketSphinx.
Unfortunately, I have not found a German language model.

Can one of you tell me a dictation software that runs under MX and also supports the German language?
I would also be willing to install Flatpaks.

I ...

Re: Recomendations for blue light filter

German ophthalmologists STRONGLY advise against blue light filters in spectacles, as they are useless and the possible long-term effects of hours of daily use by screen workers have not yet been clarified.

how can I integrate new partitions into MX?

Good evening.

Since I had first tried several times to prepare the hard disk for a GPT installation of MX without success, I then instructed the MX installer to use the entire disk.

(solved) grub das not recognise 2nd harddisk in expansion slot

Good evening,
I use an HP laptop that works perfectly with MX.
I have now removed the internal DVD burner and am using a caddy in its place so that I can use 2.5" hard drives as a second drive in the laptop.

Now I have tried to configure grub so that I can choose when switching on the computer ...
