Re: Freedom is the key to success with any distro
Thanks. Experimenting, I tried this in a live session. I like the cleaner menus! However, while I rarely use the MX Tools, I do prefer to have them all available.dolphin_oracle wrote: Sat Dec 22, 2018 12:44 pm just because a thing isn't obvious does not mean it can't be done.
the following will allow you to remove all the mx-tools. variations will allow you to remove individual tools as you see fit, just don't include those in the removal list.
Code: Select all
apt-get remove mx-apps mx-boot-options mx-bootrepair mx-cleanup mx-clocky mx-codecs mx-conky mx-conky-data mx-docs mx-idevice-mounter mx-iphone mx-iso-template mx-live-usb-maker mx-menu-editor mx-network-assistant mx-packageinstaller mx-packageinstaller-pkglist mx-remaster mx-remastercc mx-repo-list mx-repo-manager mx-select-sound mx-snapshot mx-switchuser mx-system mx-system-sounds mx-timeset-gui mx-tools mx-tweak mx-tweak-data mx-usb-unmounter mx-user mx-viewer mx-welcome

Thanks. Yeah, it just does zooming and such. It's not useful, but I thought my MX install needed it for something.sunrat wrote: Wed Dec 26, 2018 7:09 pmdisplay is the image viewer command for ImageMagick, a single command among the many IM functions.

Is that graphicsmagic? (A sincere question).

Re: Freedom is the key to success with any distro
When I moved from Xandros to Mepis and checked out the Forum, that was hosted on the Mepis website before Mepislovers Forum, Eadwine was one one the first members who I paid attention to. And that has not changed.Eadwine Rose wrote: Tue Jan 01, 2019 8:56 am*chuckle* Yep.
