MX Linux Forum

I'm trying to install Silent Wings on my MX23.5 (64-bit) system but it needs 32-bit binaries to run. In past distros I was use Synaptic but MX doesn't seem to have anything similar. Would anyone know how to add the binaries?

This is the output I get after running the installation file:

Was it the same before you installed the proprietary Nvidia driver?

Is it the same if you boot with systemd? (You'll find in "Advanced Options" on Grub).

What if you boot with the Xfce version (AHS or regular MX), (you can try even on live session, don't have to install).

Nope, it's not ...

I'm curious about whether this problem is specific to this installation, specific to MX Linux, specific to Linux, or affects other platforms. My experience is that problems with slow disks tend to settle over time (minutes), as caching comes into effect. Problems with graphics hardware/drivers ...

I am finding that all apps on my installation are very slow to start and sometimes fail to start. And when they do start, they are very slow to fully load (eg.

In order to track this down, both of you need to post the output from the QSI utility. The Quick System Info (QSI) utility is located in MX Tools and its output is automatically formatted for use here in the forum. Run the QSI utility, click “Copy for Forum” at the bottom and ...

I'm having an intermittent issue with sound/mic not being detected and the message 'No output or input devices found' when checking system settings > audio. There are no options to configure audio shown (option is greyed out). However, a reboot seems to fix things. The issue occurs randomly after I ...
