Is this article still okay or would it be better to write: If you want to use it immedeately, not waiting for the next restart, do something like this: $ sudo modprobe zram $ sudo /etc/init.d/zram start Not sure it would be "better" but if it works it would be useful to add it , but first: does it ...

Wikipedia Editor of 14+ years here. Wikipedia page needing update? The Fluxbox article on Wikipedia was last updated May 1, 2023. My last edit on it was April 17, 2023. I also help maintain the antiX as well as the MX Linux articles on Wikipedia. Thats fine, but there is also stated: Stable release ...

But Debian on packages.debian.org uses still the original version 1.35 or 1.37 and do their own patches? Is there some information/teamwork between the teams? Or will the devs of MX Linux not part with Debian?

On the website for Fluxbox is stated the last developement was in 2015, version 1.3.7. The github shows also that there was the last commit in July 2022. So the question may be asked: Who supports it? Should the information on Wikipedia eventually updated?

But what to do when there is only one time Ubuntu shown in the UEFI Boot but there are three partitions: Ubuntu-Mate, Xubuntu and Pinguy egg created Ubuntu? This seems a bit complicated. That's Ubuntu and secure-boot related issue, as all those ubuntu-flavors use just one efi-loader entry. That's ...

+++EDIT+++ On UEFI systems, you can use rEFInd efi-bootmanager, to multi-boot through rEFInd provided EFI-bootoption menu, which should also allow boot into any btrfs install. That's fine especially cause one can install Grub2 and rEFInd as I read. But you will have to inform it about OS updates or ...

That's correct, grub through it's use of os-prober won't be able to detect another install on btrfs, esp, where /root sits on a /@ subvolume. I haven't tried an btrfs install where root is not on a subvolume MX defaults to install root on /@, mainly b/c that's a timeshift requirement. Excuse me ...

@fehlix I think I wrote a answer before with the content that the os-prober on MX-23 does not detect my other Linux Distribution installations correctly. If they sit on BTRFS they will not detected. But I dont find my last post. So for showing you the difference I state the output from os-prober on ...

Does somebody knew why grub.cfg sometimes states root=UUID... and sometimes root=/dev/sdbXX? There are cases where my internal sda is not shown and then sdb becomes to sda and the boot stops in a dash shell. update-grub generates grub menu entries in two flavours: If it detects a grub-installation ...
