Compatibility

#1 Post by Jenny »

Good afternoon, dear users. I bought myself a small netbook at a good price for experimenting. There is a dual-core processor on board, and it’s an Atom N2600 and two GB of RAM. So I have this question. Will it work with this configuration Mx linux with fluxbox 32 bit???

You can download the 32 bit live ISO and give it a try. https://mxlinux.org/download-links/
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.

It will install and run, but it's a 64-bit machine so why not try that?

Whether it suits your needs depends very much on what those needs are. Web browsing will be a bit slow, and watching YouTube video at anything other than very low resolution won't be viable. For watching video files on the machine, office work, or listening to music it will be fine.

Edit Antix - antiX - believe it or not, I did wonder about the spelling or something when I quickly posted - something didn't seem right, but the spelling seemed OK.
