Re: Responses to Coming changes in impending MX 25 release.

As a KDE user, who used sysV and X11 all the time with MX23, is there a way i can find out if systemd and Wayland with MX25 KDE will work for my use case, other than trying it out and „learn the hard way“ that it does not? :-)

Re: Intermittent Boot Freeze after Cryptsetup – Related to VirtualBox Module?

Right now I use Kernel 6.1.0-37-amd64 [6.1.140-1] and everything fine so far except that boot thing that happens occasionally (about every 20th boot or so, but still annoying)

Until now I had always installed VirtualBox over MXPI, because I thought this is always the preferred way within the MX ...

Re: Upgrade from iGPU to dGPU - drivers? order? [Solved]



At boot the kernel chooses the driver automatically after detecting the hardware. Usually radeon is for older cards and amdgpu for the newer ones (probably including yours).

finally installed the card and it works so far ...
