If there is ONE thing that I miss in Linux, then it is a decent photo editor.

There is The GIMP, of course (and Pinta, and a few other smaller ones), but I think that the real meaning of GIMP is "Greatly Irritating Miserable Program", because, ghaaaa.

Sure, it gets things done (well...), but I ...

Anyone ever played " Civilisation: Call to Power " for Linux?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilization:_Call_to_Power

I once purchased it and played it in Mandrakelinux, I believe, it was. It ran well, I remember.

" Drone riots " - no, wait, that was " Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri " :happy: (in ...

Microsoft on Linux?

< shudder >

Just use Softmaker FreeOffice 2018 - it will open your MS Office files for you just fine.
As a way to support a little, unknown "underdog" I use the paid version of Softmaker Office in Windows and in Linux Mint (mainly Textmaker, though), and I can say that it ...

I ran Fluxbox/Debian on my late Core2Duo machine. It had a kind of green theme with a fluXbox - resembling "Xbox" logo - wallpaper on it. It was very nice, imo.

(On that machine Debian ran great. OpenSUSE, for comparison, on it ran like a turtle on Valium... Debian rocks. Thank you, Ian Murdock...)

<Bump>, if I may?

Being a new MX user, I come across this thread. Is this still active, or more a "don't bother"?


There should be a bar in yellow at the top that says to click to edit. At least there was in my LO 6.3.3 (Debian Backports). Otherwise I believe you can just copy and paste into a ...

Welcome :)
Thank you, Huckleberry.

And don't worry, here's my HP's Bios: date: 01/18/2007, single core , 32bit ...
Whoa. My HP "dc5100" is feeling much better now. :happy:

I'd like to suggest the 4.9 antiX kernel in MX Package Installer => Popular Apps (first tab) (Lighter and more suitable ...

When gnome3 was released, I escaped from Ubuntu to Linux Mint
Sounds about the same as my "story".

My first real Linux install was Ubuntu 7.10 (back in 2007) and then 10.04, until Gnome 3 came out, at which point I "defected" to Linux Mint and never looked back.

I remember trying SuSE Linux ...

Hello MX'ers,

I am now for 2 days running MX Linux 19.1 on a very old computer (and I do mean very old - just look at the date of the BIOS, below!)

It is also running Linux Mint 19 xfce, and it still (!) contains a Windows XP partition (the password of which I probably no longer remember ...
