Great! Thank you!

Thank you so much Kermit, I installed all af those packages from the console and now at least I have a working WM/DE to live in! Btw, I also have a very customized Icewm config of mine (on my AntiX-driven machine) that I could inherit...
Neverthless, I'd prefer to find out what's wrong with ...

Thank you both.

But, now I tried booting again with all the kernels I had on my system (6.8.12, 6.7.12 and 6.6.12, all liquorix) and I got the ttys!! Not using kernel 6.8.12, but with the two older ones. Still no desktop anyway... (I've tried ...
