I have been trying to google this, but I am not really able to find a clear answer. I was intending to installl mx-linux, because I like Debian stable and I really need x rather than wayland, in order to do my job, which relies heavily on screen sharing.
Running the live cd, I had trouble getting the scalling right. Also having trouble with the wifi, I was not able to trouleshoot live. But afterwards I have not been able to find a clear answer on whether xfce is suitable for "newish" laptops.
Anybody who have a clear opinion on this?

The correct answer I believe is ... "it depends". I have a an HP Envy Laptop 17-cw0xxx 8/23 runs awesome on MX23 xfce, several higher end brand new machines (laptop and desktops - mid 2024 ) - no issue. But it is 100% dependent upon your hardware.

You need to post the output from the QSI utility. The Quick System Info (QSI) utility is located in MX Tools and its output is automatically formatted for use here in the forum. Run the QSI utility, click “Copy for Forum” at the bottom and then just paste it here in your thread.
