MX Linux Forum

The official announcement is in the MX News and Announcements section (viewtopic.php?t=79875) but regular users can't post there, so post your comments here if you like.


I discovered MX Linux when I decided to switch my Slackware system to a Debian based OS and almost settled on Kubuntu if it weren't for a kernel panic during the loading of it's live ISO.

I downloaded MX Linux 19.3 and haven't looked back. I recently added antix-23.1 (IceWM) to my multi-boot system so I can now enjoy both worlds.


Hats off and kudos to the devs of this wonderful distribution.

Second that! an AMAZING job - and THANK YOU for the hard work, dedication, support and amazement that you all bring! Happy Birthday MX!!

Happy Birthday MX Linux and many more. I remember seeing a video when I was using Manjaro years ago and I like what I saw. I had a lot of trouble with Manjaro and the support in the Manjaro forums was completely non existence along with being very nasty. I tried asking in the Arch forums for help that they were actually really nice about it explaining to me that Manjaro is not Arch and advised me to look outside of the Manjaro forums which I am glad I did. I eventually ended up getting help outside of the Manjaro community from Spatry from Spatry's Cup of Linux. A few months down the road I had a problem with Manjaro again but unfortunately Spatry was no longer to be found at that time. I then switched to using MX-Linux. Thank you all responsible for making MX Linux so great.

I discovered MX Linux in 2018, and had no idea it was a continuation of MEPIS (a name I had not heard about in years). I got curious because with a name like "MX Linux" I figured it was a distro for DJs. Turned out to be a pretty decent distro based on XFCE.

Of course there's always AV Linux, a distro for DJs based on MX Linux.

Congrats to the devs for creating this wonderful distro and maintaining it for so long :D Happy birthday to MX!

I see the birthday banner on the forum main page.

Thanks, forum mods!

Created by and implemented by peregrine.

Congrats to all involved in making MX what it is!

Hoping it continues for many years to come!

Happy Birthday!

I tried to switch to Linux as careful as I could, having so much stuff depending on a working computer. From all I could read and find MX Linux was among the 2 or 3 best options for me. So I gave it a try in 2022, and I have not been disappointed. A distro that works, and that is designed to help me get stuff running. Wonderful!

Thank you very much devs, admins, supporters, and forum users!

Happy Birthday!
I am under MX (and antiX) since MX17 (and antiX17), with pleasure.
