Re: MX-23.4-KDE-Christian

Cool never heard of this. I already use the KDE build so wouldn't be using this distro build but I would like to know what the core apps are and would even appreciate a script to install them on my deployment. Thanks and good luck!

Re: Laptop KDE GUI broke suddenly

Turns out somehow Nvidia drivers got installed over my other ones during some update. Don't know how but doing 'ddm-mx -p nvidia' cleared them out and after a reboot I'm back up and running. Thanks for everyone's assistance.

Re: Laptop KDE GUI broke suddenly

Partitions have plenty of space. I did not knowingly install any new video drivers but would be interested in learning how to reset my video driver at the command line as it seems to me that this behavior could be due to a bad video driver. I'm curious what plymouth actually does and what might ...

My laptop Xwindows just stopped working at boottime. I'm running the KDE distro build of MX 21.3. System comes up then switches into GUI mode but just has a black screen with a white blinking cursor in the upper left corner. When I alt-F1 I see this error message about plymouth service not working ...

Big weird update broke my KDE MX 21.3 Desktop Hard

My main Kde MX-Linux desktop machine just fubar'd. It suddenly requested to download 400+ packages in an upgrade (my similarly configured laptop never saw this) and ultimately rebooting the system made it drop booting into kde and completely forget all network drivers. I'm guessing this is likely ...

Re: Wireless suddenly quit working for one of my routers.

I upgraded the kernel as Huckleberry Finn recommended and then my wifi wouldn't connect to ANY router... ;-) haha damn

But - I did find the new BIOS v410 on the ASUS site and upgraded as razor2021 recommended then suddenly wifi connected to everything.

So...all's well that ends. Thanks guys!
