Re: MX-19 RC1 Feedback thread
Posted: Thu Oct 17, 2019 10:42 am
I'm using MXlinux 19-RC1 on Virtualbox. So far it's really good.
Support for MX and antiX Linux distros

I'm happy to confirm that after multiple updates to mx-installer coming through the updater, I could finally LUM and auto-install 19b3 snapshot ISO to bare metal X1 NVMe without a glitch - Woo-hoo!!dolphin_oracle wrote: Tue Oct 15, 2019 4:23 pm Now open for business, although sourceforge doens't have many mirrors on it right now, it should be up.

Spent about an hour with ArcoLinux, and they have some issue with Thunar which spends like a whole minute before opening smb shares on my Libreelec media server.
5 minutes later, and I'm back on my MX desktop with a snapshot USB!
Hope my testing helped with nailing down the mx-installer issues.
Mate, you've got a bum steer answer on page 1 - it's not a "red line" - it's a duplicate of an icon to the right, which is tucked under your "infected" icon.Stuart_M wrote: Wed Oct 16, 2019 11:56 am I just made a very quick check. I booted up to a Live instance of MX-19 RC1 from a Flash Drive and put the Panel horizontal on the bottom of the screen. I noticed there is a red line to the right of the unmount icon, but don't remember if that line was there when the panel was vertical before I made it horizontal.

This red line disappeared about a minute later, but don't remember if it disappeared before or after I clicked on the unmount icon, which just showed the Flash Drive I used to boot up.
I connected another Flash Drive that Thunar recognized, thinking that the line indicated something was mounted, but no red line appeared.
I booted up again with the same Flash Drive, but this time the red line never appeared.
What is that red line supposed to indicate?
I've just uninstalled clipit rather than hiding it - couldn't figure out how to use it ))richb wrote: Thu Oct 17, 2019 12:26 pm Not a fix but a temporary solution for me. I have some hidden icons that I do not use. For example the removable device unmounter. That puts a right pointing arrow at the right of the notification ares. Clicking that to display the hidden icons and clicking it again to hide them eliminates any additional overlayed icons. This may be no help for you if you have all the icons displayed. But I throw it out there anyway.
