MX Linux Forum

There's a letter in this December's Linux Format, pg. 14, that apparently fell through an asymptotic projection of the Calabi–Yau manifold manifesting itself in Anti-de Sitter space (a wormhole) to our time in November:

More recently I’ve
discovered MX Linux 18, which seems to
work flawlessly on every single PC.

So now we have to get it out by the end of the year to avoid a paradox and collapsing the space-time....Continuum.

lol

Great Scott!

I wonder what this marvelous distro will be called.

Hahaha!

Sounds like the Keys To Time have been messed with.
Where's K9?

Maybe we can locate Q and he can help ?

Q Continuum

Q? Help? That's funny...

Personally, as it will be used through most, if not all, of 2019, perhaps it should be called MX 19. I really do WISH that there could be a variant, a la SparkyLinux, of a rolling release version based completely on Debian Testing. In my opinion, MX Linux is, by far, the finest GNU/Linux distribution there is - if there were a rolling release version, in my opinion, it would essentially be perfect. Other opinions ... ?

MXQ!!!

It's a finest distro precisely because it's intentionally stable. Want rolling? Go Manjaro.

Now kiddos, lets not fight.

testing is more work than people on the internet would have you believe...especially right after a stable release. but antiX does off that option.

MX18++ "back to the (near) future !"

I certainly do not want to fight! I have tried Manjaro and, after the system "crashed" on three different computers at three different times, I shall not try it again. I do use Antergos (which I like very much - I've used it for over two years on one of my computers [an Alienware AW17R3] and have had absolutely NO problems with it) and my wife uses OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (which she likes) but I think that if a rolling VARIANT of MX Linux were to be offered (not supplanting the fixed release but merely supplementing it as an option), a lot of people might use it. I certainly would! In any case I truly believe that MX Linux, as it is, is the best GNU/Linux distribution available at the present time. I currently use it on my "main" computer [Asus ROGStrix GL553VE] and I plan to keep on using it.

It sounds like someone has a Flux Capacitor. I guess they got it from here. http://kalecoauto.com/index.php?main_pa ... lFbZFNHK-3

Darnit! I never even had the chance to test the beta! :)

Manjaro, Debian testing.
Been there, done that.
It was a good experience to have had.

@Bamber & @lhb1142 I agree completely...

Why all the rush ?? MX-17.1 works perfectly well. I would much rather have an MX-18 that has been properly tested and is bug free, than a rush job where we spend the next few months making corrections.

I don't see the need for a rushed release either. Adrian seems to update kernels on snapshots if he thinks it's necessary. But the MX team should develop MX Linux like they always have. It has led to a good distro.

To those who propose Debian Testing, maybe MX Linux is stable because it's based on a stable base, just a thought...

I never update the kernels on snapshots, I just do updates that come from the repos (maybe only if there's a urgent ksecurity fix)

I haven't done anything related to the kernel, I installed from January 2018 snapshot I think. I don't think this was the MX-17 launch kernel. There was talk about Meltdown and a newer kernel to protect against it. (Also happy to see a newer kernel in the KDE spin.)

Note that the OP was posted under Community Fun....

Relax, people.
