MX Linux Forum

Actually, I'm just going to use MX. Every time I fix something with Anti-X, I run into a new problem. MX just works all around. I will just deal with the slower machine to have the reliability of MX.

Thank you for helping me with anti-x. Hopefully, I won't have any issues with mx that I can't fix ...

sorry it took so long, I had dinner with a side of problems. My MX usb would not boot when the anti-x usb was in and if I put it in after it booted the linux would not be recognized. It took me awhile to figure this out. I ended installing the anti-x to my sdd and tossing that usb. It worked ...

no windows, no change with bios at default

there is a 6.1.90-antix in synaptic. There are other kernels, but none labeled antix.

just looked up the hardware ID of your wifi card. It is possible that your wifi card is not fully supported on 6.1, so upgrade the kernel. Also, do get the latest firmware packages (at least firmware-iwlwifi).


I don"t know how to do that, and the posts I see are for how to move the kernel back ...

snip

[codesudo dmesg | grep -i iwlwifi[/code]
to see whether it shows something's missing and we can "pinpoint" .


ok, used mx to update anti-x
(worked great btw) = no change

booted from anti-x and ran dmesg command and got:

[ 3.065645] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: enabling device (0000 -> 0002 ...

FYI MX says Kernel: 6.10.10-1-liquorix-amd64 [6.10-12~mx23ahs]
Anti-X says Kernel: 6.1.105-antix.1-amd64-smp

is that both 6.1 or is anti-x 6.1 and MX 6.10?

it could just be the way they are written

I have an appt. I'll have to mess with this tomorrow. thank you for the help so far.

ok here is the inxi for anti-x
