I mean /usr/bin/app-categories and /usr/share/rofi/rofi-help_appfinder - the bash scripts that run categories and help tab in the Appfinder. Now no matter which language is set, everyone will see the names of categories in English and for everyone will see "Appfinder" and "Settings" in English in the help-tab

That's Ubuntu and secure-boot related issue, as all those ubuntu-flavors use just one efi-loader entry.
That's actually similar what Debian is now doing, so if you have to install two debian installations, you would only find one EFI-loader. One way to solve it, use for every such install a separate ESP.

@fehlix What's about MX Respins? Will they do not also overwrite the existing MX23 directory on EFI and NVRAM? Or can there be a better way?

I booted up the fluxbox-beta2 live ISO and DE shows but Packages doesn't. Tested it also with the MX-23 XFCE-beta2 live ISO with same results, DE shows but Packages doesn't.

Well you don't have a DE installed, right? But you do have a WM, which is correctly identified as Fluxbox. Don't know what "Packages" is supposed to show ()number?), but I don't even have it listed as a category.

Why isn't this a neofetch problem?

#86 Post by **Jerry3904** » Sat Jun 17, 2023 12:42 pm

@keos This is the right place...and if you hope for a response provide the Quick System Info and the version you installed
---------------------------
Hello,

I don't know if this is the right forum.
Anyway, I install the latest beta version of mx-23, I update it.

Some problems ...
Chromium as browser, I always uninstall firefox. In chromium I install Startpage, the default is Duckduckgo, I don't like it, it's inferior in the quality of the searches -- once the browser was configured, duckduckgo disappeared and Odysee appeared as default browser. (?)

The internet connection says Eth0 (?)

Can't do anything on the system now, it has lost connection to the internet. I'm posting here from MX-21.

As it is a Beta I would like to know if this is normal due to the instability of the system.

Thanks

@Jerry3904 I booted up several live ISO's with these results.

MX-23-Fluxbox-beta2-live-iso (DE listed just not Packages)

MX-21.3-XFCE-June_snapshot (DE listed just not Packages)

MX-21.3-XFCE-June_snapshot.png

Debian12-XFCE-live-iso (DE and Packages listed)

Debian12-XFCE-live-iso.png

I'm going to download MX-23-XFCE-beta2 live ISO and also boot my MX-21.3 fluxbox snapshot in the mean time to compare notes.

Click on the three vertical dots in the upper right hand corner, Scroll down to Settings, select Appearance and then insert your preference for your start page.
