AntiX 6.1 kernel

#1 Post by Girafenaine »

Hello MX community,

I use antiX 5.1 kernel on my MX23 installation, because it’s the only one that runs smoothly with my dell XPS 7590 laptop, even when it is unplugged. Other (debian or ahs or liquorix) run well with laptop plugged, but do not wake from sleep state when unplugged.

I would like to have the antiX 6.1 kernel in the MX package installer. How can I help to make it happen ?

Thanks !

Work: AntiX 21 runit Fluxbox + AntiX 19 Fluxbox ("frugal" installs on Windows laptop)

you can make a PM file and submit it. perferrably on github, but I'll take it here too.

existing PM files are under /usr/share/mx-packageinstaller-pkglist. I think the kernel ones start with "kernel". so you can see how they work.

github repo is here: https://github.com/MX-Linux/mx-packageinstaller-pkglist

FYI: mx "test" repo is not the same thing as debian testing repo.

Hello @dolphin_oracle ,

I have just written a commit on github to add a pm file as you suggested

Please note it’s the first commit and pull request I have ever made so please tell me if something is wrong…

I just copied a same pm file for antix 4.19 and changed in 6.1.118 (as I found this was the last version on http://la.mxrepo.com/antix/bookworm/dis ... 4/Packages )

Seems a formal xml error, b/c I got for a "well-formed" check with xmllint:
this way:

Code: Select all

xmllint --noout kernel_antix-6.1_64bit.pm
and got complains:

Code: Select all

kernel_antix-6.1_64bit.pm:2: parser error : XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
invalid xml-files won't be shown in MX-Package Installer, b/c the xml-parser simply fails.
Suggest to get the first empty line removed, to fix it.

Thanks @fehlix

I have just made a new pull request to remove the first blank line, I hope it will be fine
