MX Linux Forum

Just want to say - Great Job! No error install, and all applications except one installed fine as well - and that one (avidemux) I installed through flatpack. Thank you.

Closing the book on this one. I tried everything I possibly could to get mx 21.3 32bit working using a Sony 55" TV as the monitor and it refuses to work. Same hardware through Ubuntu Studio v20.04.2 does work - so that is the OS I will use with my music. I tried the nvidia v340 driver again, and ...

No it did not work. The TV install on the Shuttle SG31G2 is still broken.

I booted MX anyway and ended up at a 800x600 desktop. However, in the MX Display Settings were all my missing ...

i'LL HAVE TO TRY THIS TOMORROW - THANKS


In the meantime, my Nvidia is also old that can have 340 max. , and like you, I go on with Nouveau as it's much better than the 340.

But, there was a known suspend/wake-up issue with 5.xx kernels and such older Nvidia cards. (It can't suspend (takes ...

came back after reboot with same issue. During terminal command it twice said "I: Set the RESUME variable to override this" ???

Code: Select all

sudo modprobe nouveau ; sudo update-initramfs -uk all
