MX Linux Forum

Hello everyone. I installed it. MX linux version of Open Box. But I don’t know if this distribution is right for me or not. I liked it. I have 8 GB of RAM, 234 ssd, and a 6 core processor. I have a question. What are the system requirements Mx linux?

I routinely run on a 2gb system with swap enabled. I would think 8gb is a good recommendation.

that is, 8 GB of RAM is enough for me to use Mx Linux?

It depends of course on what all you will be running at the same time, however 8gb typically is plenty to run MX. ( I from my VM's for many things with only 4gb and 1 or 2 processor cores.)

Where did you get this Openbox version of MX? That would be an unofficial respin (there are only official XFCE, KDE and Fluxbox versions) so there is no official support of what you installed by the MX team.

Please post your Quick System Info. You can find this in your application menu.

I suspect the OP meant Fluxbox, but can't really fathom a "234 SSD".

Yes, I meant Flax box. And I would like to clarify. I have 8 GB of RAM. I would like to ask. Is 8 GB enough for me to use Mx linux?

Just so you know, fluxbox was released 2001 and Openbox was released 2002. fluxbox is based on Blackbox 0.61.1 and Openbox based on Blackbox 0.65.0.

My configuration: 8 GB RAM, 234 GB disk space, and
intel core i 3 1215u(12gen)., but I don’t know if I have enough RAM

8 GB is plenty.
