MX Linux Forum

Thanks for posting this @Markus85. That was my concern, regarding mullvad installer also.


I'm running the sysvinit-only MX-23 respin and have had no problems running Lutris, WINE, or the Mullvad VPN software on it ... Now, so far as I can tell, I'm using the official 2025.07 package with the ...

As far as systemd is concerned, I have so far only experienced with Lutris that it was not possible to install games using Wine if systemd was not available.


Thanks for posting this Markus85 . That was my concern, regarding mullvad installer also. Running two separate installs, one the ...

I can only find one vague incident where the guy says FFS started destroying his ext4 externals... no mention of systemD


400gb folder I lost after systemd dbus error wasn't in the ffs list though and it was a systemd dbus error reported, not ffs ... I'm just saying what was happening at the ...

Seeing a significant number of people against ai, so a rule-change might mean less people on the forum. That could mean more work for those remaining, and less donations/testing etc.

No idea rambo919 except a dbus issue happened at the same time as freefilesync doing something and I plugged in a usb. Not technical, tried to get answers, but unfortunately didn't happen. Referencing different distro in this instance, earlier this year. Have seen others report similar at times, in ...

Significant data loss incident last time ran systemd, and ethical issues, so wouldn't run a systemd version, but wanting to ask if mullvad installer (systemd-shim) and wine (needs systemd and sysV?) would run on the purely sysV version.

Thanks that there'll be a sysV version, that that isn't going ...

Can't make it any clearer guys. Will leave what seems to be gaslighting, intended or otherwise (through just not reading the post), here where it belongs. Have gone to EndeavourOS; 32-bit support, art programmes fine, games running, and not overzealously locked down root, at last.

MY QSI shows a modern 64-bit machine, and from the start my post references missing 32-bit dependencies affecting art and games.
EDIT: added word 'dependencies' into thread title, for anyone not reading the post.

Hello
Was only recently I've tried out some games, after getting new pc early January. Lack of 32-bit wine dependencies is causing too many issues, with both art and games and generally. Add into that wine not seeming to see that I have the right things installed, and too much now locked behind root ...

Just seen further responses. Thanks j2mcgreg . Much appreciate pleasant post and good advice. Thanks to CharlesV also, for the +1. I ended up installing antix 6.1 back then, and machine runs better generally (probably due to running older Mate?), but all the other issues are still there. Given up on ...
