MX Linux Forum

After upgrading to MX 21, I have two listings for 'MX Tools' in the Whisker menu. Both listings have the same contents. What can I do to clean this up?

I recently upgraded my MX from 19 to 21.3. Now, a peculiar phenomenon is occurring whereby every 10 minutes the xfce-display-settings window pops up. As the below shows, it's the xfsettingsd process that is starting them.

I am currently using the Debian Stretch version of ffmpeg to get fdk_acc support. However, the packages that were upgraded as a result of installing ffmpeg from Stretch have broken GIMP for me. (And if I continue with upgrading ...

The file $HOME/.config/autostart/conky.desktop starts it by 'Exec'ing, as Jerry3904 states, ~/.conky/conky-startup.sh

The sides and bottoms work find, but the title bar doesn't cause the mouse pointer to change for gripping and ...

Edit ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css, and just below
/*set custom gtk3/css code below */
add
menu .menu #menu {
min-height: auto;
}

I figured out this does not work;

I found a problem with Liquorix 5.5 in that Ctrl-Alt-F1 brings up a non-working console (blank screen except for a non-responsive blinking underscore cursor). If I boot into Liquorix 5.3, then Ctrl-Alt-F1 does get me to a working console.
