Support for MX and antiX Linux distros

IIRC i have it running on my MX21 since I installed it, too. So it has been activated before I installed the printer.Eadwine Rose wrote: Sat Jul 29, 2023 12:28 pm Try to disable the firewall, does it work then?
Firewall is new on MX, so could be that.
Did you try the num lock settings in XFCE Setting Manager >> keyboard? Not sure it affects the login screen itself, but hopefully should enable numlock to your session.Gerson wrote: Sat Jul 29, 2023 12:49 pm I'm using MX 23 RC3 on a PC, but I couldn't get the numeric keypad to work at login, I have to enable it manually with "Num Lock".
I already installed "numlockx" and rebooted and it didn't work, then I tried modifying the file in "/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf" adding the line: "greeter-setup-script=/usr/bin/numlockx on" with no positive results. It doesn't reach the Login, I had to delete that line to get the system to start.
Any suggestions?
In MXtools, there is keyboard - the one with the grey icon. Very first toggle is activiating the numblock at start up. And yes it works at the login screen alreadyGerson wrote: Sat Jul 29, 2023 12:49 pm I'm using MX 23 RC3 on a PC, but I couldn't get the numeric keypad to work at login, I have to enable it manually with "Num Lock".

For Brother MFCs, you may need to go to the Print Settings interface, and in the Printer's preferences>> settings, change the location ( Device URI) to the actual IP address that your printer is using. Which means you may need to change your printer's IP location (done from the printer itself) to a static address, like 192.xxx.x.xxxargonaut459 wrote: Sat Jul 29, 2023 1:12 pmIIRC i have it running on my MX21 since I installed it, too.

MX23, deactivated UFW. and NO print - the message in the window switched to "printer may not be connected", haven't restarted after deactivating UFW.
Didn't need to do something like this in MX21 - that's what baffles me a bit.asqwerth wrote: Sat Jul 29, 2023 1:19 pmFor Brother MFCs, you may need to go to the Print Settings interface, and in the Printer's preferences>> settings, change the location ( Device URI) to the actual IP address that your printer is using.

Now in MX23 RC3, it took quite some time till the network printer showed up, clicking forward as I did in MX21. It is installed, yet nothing is being printed. Would love to add a log or such :D
you are free to configure your groups as you wish. we will keep the sudo defualts as-is.abd_bela wrote: Sat Jul 29, 2023 2:48 pm I use snapshot to customize the distro, I prefer systemd as default booting, I modify the grub,cfg,
but, it seems grub.cfg is regenerated, my modif is not there, how to do it?
Secondly, I think the sudo group should be removed from /etc/adduser.conf, otherwise allusers can become Superuser!!!!

Create your additional users using MX User Manager and removing the new user's sudo rights is really easy if you wish it that way:abd_bela wrote: Sat Jul 29, 2023 2:48 pm ...
