As I said, this QSI belongs to my desktop computer and it is not relevant for this issue. It is NOT the QSI of the beta 1. Only posted to insure that the report was accepted.

Are you saying that only the displayed text "Alt-F1 Vides spousteci proces" and "Alt-F10 vratit se sem". is within the wrong language? Is it translated with another language, or is the line untranslated in English? (Ooops re-read it again:) You are saying it is displayed in Czech, not in Catalan and not in English. OK.

Yes, other texts appear in Catalan.

But the system booted further into the correct selected language?

Another Yes, the system starts in Catalan whenever possible.

And does happen in both UEFI-boot and BIOS/MBR or only within one?

It happened from MX-21 (not in previous issues) on different hardware: Desktop, laptop, BIOS, UEFI...

OK, thanks. Good, you mentioned the issue again - so I guess time to fix it. Will put onto the todo list to get fixed before MX23 got released.

@Jerry3904 OK, thanks. I use lxappearance to be able to change mouse cursors I've installed from the repo or from my back-up drive.
I tried the terminal command below (in beta1) but not all windows respect the change. (Librewolf come to mind).

Code: Select all

sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme

I will definitely test those out and report my findings.
This is my Fluxbox . There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My Fluxbox is my best friend. It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fluxbox is useless. Without my Fluxbox, I am useless.

mxfluxbox (Will X and K any difference?)
minstall --oem, minstall -o
i am not getting anything different than a normal installation.
it gets to the page to fill in username and password, so i abort and try again --oem. no luck. What does --oem success start with?

this with su-to-root -X -c minstall --oem; root author password accepted.

Updates just came through for me. We have fixed the dock function, but the location is TopLeft (was short of time, just copied what had been posted). Will change.

Font looks correct now.

EDIT: uploaded corrected dock location, changed desktop icons to Papirus

Live USB made with MX-LUM on this (UEFI) machine; checksums all OK; using it now on this machine. However, when creating using LUM, I did notice that there are only 2 partitions, not the usual 3:

When using MX-LUM, I usually see something like this:

Code: Select all

                    Total      Used     Extra
   entire drive  29.5 GiB 29.5 GiB     1 MiB
 main partition  29.3 GiB 19.2 GiB  10.1 GiB
 bios partition   150 MiB   46 MiB   104 MiB
 uefi partition    50 MiB   30 MiB    20 MiB
However, from the LUM log for Beta-1, I get this:

Code: Select all

   entire drive  29.5 GiB 29.5 GiB     1 MiB
 main partition  29.4 GiB 2.00 GiB  27.4 GiB
 uefi partition    50 MiB   32 MiB    18 MiB
Is the BIOS partition missing? Is a missing BIOS partition causing GRUB to hang on the Asus P5KPL? Do I need to use MX-LUM from the BIOS machine (Asus P5KPL)?

:confused:

Did you try manually editing these entries in ~/gtkrc-2.0

Code: Select all

gtk-cursor-theme-name="DMZ-Black" 
gtk-cursor-theme-size=0
and ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini ?

Still having issues with the updated mx-dockmaker.

When selecting a file, then mx-dockmaker will create a correct wmalauncher command line in the target *.mxdk script :

Code: Select all

wmalauncher --desktop-file thunar.desktop --background-color "#ff4a4a" --hover-background-color "#ff0000" --border-color "#2a2a2a" --hover-border-color "#8a8a8a" --window-size 48& sleep 0.1 
But when instead setting a command and selecting an appropriate icon (as shown in below screenshot), then that custom command is written as icon name to the *.mxdk file :

Code: Select all

wmalauncher --command pkexec Thunar --icon pkexec Thunar --background-color "#ff4a4a" --hover-background-color "#ff0000" --border-color "#2a2a2a" --hover-border-color "#8a8a8a" --window-size 48& sleep 0.1
... and subsequently, that entry will not appear in the dock.

Hope this can be resolved by @Adrian ?

Good catch. I thought I had seen such an extension once but then couldn't find it again and decided my eyes were crossed.

Live USB made with MX-LUM on this (UEFI) machine; checksums all OK; using it now on this machine. However, when creating using LUM, I did notice that there are only 2 partitions, not the usual 3:

When using MX-LUM, I usually see something like this:

Code: Select all

                    Total      Used     Extra
   entire drive  29.5 GiB 29.5 GiB     1 MiB
 main partition  29.3 GiB 19.2 GiB  10.1 GiB
 bios partition   150 MiB   46 MiB   104 MiB
 uefi partition    50 MiB   30 MiB    20 MiB
However, from the LUM log for Beta-1, I get this:

Code: Select all

   entire drive  29.5 GiB 29.5 GiB     1 MiB
 main partition  29.4 GiB 2.00 GiB  27.4 GiB
 uefi partition    50 MiB   32 MiB    18 MiB
Is the BIOS partition missing? Is a missing BIOS partition causing GRUB to hang on the Asus P5KPL? Do I need to use MX-LUM from the BIOS machine (Asus P5KPL)?

:confused:
[SOLVED]:
MY BAD!!! :bagoverhead:

Bad USB Port on Asus P5KPL!
Switched to a rear port. All is Good!

New Issue:

MX-Tools -> MX System Sounds:
On Right-Hand Side: "Session Sounds":
Only a CheckBox for "Login".

No Session Sounds for "Logout" ???
