Especially nice is that it is finally possible to use bluetooth for audio playback without installing the cumbersome pulseaudio.Installing pipewire made this possible now in bookworm.
Could you possibly share what exactly needs to be installed from pipewire bundle or from elsewhere for sound to work with bluetooth?
Also, do you need pavucontrol to control where sound is routed, such as to bluetooth speakers, rather than default speakers?
Thanks and Regards…Live antiX Boot Options (Previously posted by Xecure):

A really well done look together with the wallpaper.In time running it from live usb with persist-all.antiX23 runs fast and stable (as always).
Especially nice is that it is finally possible to use bluetooth for audio playback without installing the cumbersome pulseaudio.Installing pipewire made this possible now in bookworm.
I first tried this with bluez-alsa-utils, which is installed by default, but /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.bluealsa.service does not exist.
bluez-alsa-utils contains only systemd service file.
After a lot of experimenting with creating runit service files, i decided to try pipewire which can be started from autostart and does not need an init.
And pipewire until now works perfect.Just listening to my bluetooth speaker sound from firefox.
I’m going install to harddrive now for further exploration. Many thanks for this beautiful and reliable OS.@Christophe, isn’t the start_sound_level tightly configured in desktop-session-conf ?
@Sasa, For those who have the green screen until now they all had nvidia cards, did you try to boot with boot parameters like

In reply to: What are you “here” with today?
Brian Masinick
You guys were colder than us a day or so ago and today it looks like you have very nice weather!
Must be crazier than Michigan weather around Pecos, TX!We’re hovering just under 40 degrees now, though we did have a nice, sunny, but brisk day today. The sun was shining first thing this morning, something that didn’t happen more than 60 times a year with bright sunshine in some areas of Michigan, due to the number of lakes, streams, and major Great Lakes, which of course carry a lot of water, leading to a LOT of cloudy days!
We have ocean, but it’s between four and five hours east of us, so it’s not a factor. We also have mountains, but most of them are hills around here, except one that nicely protects us, (in my opinion) from too many extremes – we’re NEAR it, but not ON it, so that also helps. To our North are higher elevations and they can get colder weather and more frequent snow; we haven’t had any snow at all this season and only ONE last season, so that is also nice.
Also our weather was often warm, but rarely extreme over the past year, so it was a good year that way too.
I’m thinking of pulling out one of my dinosaur desktop units and trying out the new Alpha version there.

The ISO boot “antiX-23-alpha1-runit_x64-full.iso” took place on a USB device prepared with Ventoy, this is just a live boot.
The F1 option is now next to the F2 option in the antiX ISO boot and this is great, before the F1 option was not visible.
Now I want to make some suggestions:
1 – Place the “Unplug Removable Device” icon (original text in English to avoid any misunderstanding) at the far left, as it was always further to the left in previous editions of antiX. Please, don’t answer me so I can use “IceWM Toolbar Icon Manager” to organize it as I’m suggesting.
My suggestion:
prog “Unplug Removable Device” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/devices/drive-removable-media-usb.png unplugdrive.sh
prog “antiX Updater” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/categories/software-sources.png /usr/local/bin/yad-updater
prog “Software Installer” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/apps/packageinstaller.png su-to-root -X -c packageinstaller
prog “File Manager” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/apps/file-manager.png desktop-defaults-run -fm
prog “Web Browser” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/apps/web-browser.png desktop-defaults-run -b
prog “IceWM Toolbar Icon Manager” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/categories/icewm_editor.png /usr/local/bin/icewm-toolbar-icon-manager.sh2 – I thank you for correcting the “pt_BR” identifier in the “/usr/share/antiX/localisation” folder.
3 – The file “refresh-menu.desktop.desktop” continues with the entry like this “Exec=desktop-menu –write-out-global”, by chance it should be with “sudo desktop-menu –write-out-global ” for the menu to work?
4 – Now I’m going to look at the menus and compare with antiX 21/22.
“antiX” submenu: All menus are translated to “pt_BR”, except “locale-antix-user.desktop” and “locale-antix-system.desktop”. Please use the translated .desktop files on GitLab (https://gitlab.com/antix-contribs/antix-desktop-files/-/tree/main/.desktop).
“Accessories” submenu: They will only be 100% translated to “pt_BR” when all our translated .desktop files are used by the creators of the respective programs. I’ve already found out that this will be impossible, because many developers don’t care about translations or have refused to use our translations. For example, the creators of Firejail, Celluloid, MPV, DeSmuMe, etc. If any of the programs that are in the antiX full ISO are maintained by the antiX development team and are on this list of menus that need to be translated, please use our translations.
“Development” submenu: Only Geany needs to be translated.
“Graphics” submenu: It remains to be translated to “pt_BR” – “Gtkam Digital Camera Browser”, “Mirage” and “LibreOffice Draw” (the latter is an “impossible mission”).
“Internet” submenu: Still need to be translated to “pt_BR” – “Ceni”, “Claws Mail”, “Dillo”, “Firefox ESR”, “HexChat”, “Links 2”, “Modem Manager GUI”, “Sakis3G” and “Transmission”.
“Games” submenu: Still need to be translated to “pt_BR” – “DOSBox Emulator” and “Mahjongg”.
Submenu “Multimídia”: Need to be translated to “pt_BR” – “Asunder CD Ripper”, “Celluloid” (I already explained the reason above), “SMTube”, “WinFF” (this project is unfortunately abandoned and therefore will never be merged with our translations) and “XMMS”.
“Preferences” submenu: Still need to be translated to “pt_BR” – “Bluetooth Manager”, “Screenlight” and “User Language”. The “blueman-manager.desktop” and “User Language” files are an old version and it is not the file that was used in antiX 22, please compare with our GitLab file or the file used in antiX 22.
“System” submenu: It remains to be translated to “pt_BR” – “Firetools” (I already explained the reason above), “Modem Manager GUI” and “ROXTerm”.5 – I missed having a “trash.desktop”, without it the zzzFM right-click menu won’t have the translations. Trash-related translations could be in the “trash.desktop” file.
6 – On the zzzFM right-click menu, I suggest changing the position of the “Delete (Shitf + Delete)” option to be below the “Send to Trash” option (this menu is not translated to “pt_US”) . I believe it is safer to have the “Send to Trash (Delete)” option below the Rename option (F2).
Rename (F2)
Send to Trash (Delete)
Delete (Shift+Delete)As soon as possible, I will boot the ISO “antiX-23-alpha1-runit_x64-full.iso” on computers older than the one I posted in my previous message.
– – – – –
A inicialização da ISO “antiX-23-alpha1-runit_x64-full.iso” ocorreu em um dispositivo USB preparado com o Ventoy, trata-se apenas uma inicialização ao vivo.
A opção F1 agora está ao lado da opção F2 na inicialização da ISO do antiX e isso é muito bom, antes a opção F1 não estava visível.
Agora eu pretendo apresentar algumas sugestões:
1 – Posicionar o ícone do “Unplug Removable Device” (texto original em Inglês para evitar qualquer mal entendido) na extremidade da esquerda, pois ele sempre esteve mais a esquerda nas edições anteriores do antiX. Por favor, não me respondam para eu utilizar o “IceWM Toolbar Icon Manager” para deixar organizado como eu estou sugerindo.
A minha sugestão:
prog “Unplug Removable Device” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/devices/drive-removable-media-usb.png unplugdrive.sh
prog “antiX Updater” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/categories/software-sources.png /usr/local/bin/yad-updater
prog “Software Installer” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/apps/packageinstaller.png su-to-root -X -c packageinstaller
prog “File Manager” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/apps/file-manager.png desktop-defaults-run -fm
prog “Web Browser” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/apps/web-browser.png desktop-defaults-run -b
prog “IceWM Toolbar Icon Manager” /usr/share/icons/papirus-antix/48×48/categories/icewm_editor.png /usr/local/bin/icewm-toolbar-icon-manager.sh2 – Eu agradeço por você corrigir o identificador “pt_BR” na pasta “/usr/share/antiX/localisation”.
3 – O arquivo “refresh-menu.desktop.desktop” continua com a entrada assim “Exec=desktop-menu –write-out-global”, por acaso deveria ser com “sudo desktop-menu –write-out-global” para o menu funcionar?
4 – Agora eu vou olhar para os menus e comparar com o antiX 21/22.
Submenu “antiX”: Todos os menus estão traduzidos para “pt_BR”, exceto “locale-antix-user.desktop” e “locale-antix-system.desktop”. Por favor, utilize os arquivos .desktop traduzidos no GitLab (https://gitlab.com/antix-contribs/antix-desktop-files/-/tree/main/.desktop).
Submenu “Acessórios”: Só ficarão 100% traduzidos para “pt_BR” quando todos os nossos arquivos .desktop traduzidos forem utilizados pelos criadores dos respectivos programas. Eu já descobri que isso será impossível, porque vários desenvolvedores não dão a mínima para as traduções ou se recusaram a utilizar as nossas traduções. Por exemplo, os criadores do Firejail, Celluloid, MPV, DeSmuMe, etc. Se algum dos programas que estão na ISO full do antiX for mantido pela equipe de desenvolvimento do antiX estiver neste relação dos menus que faltam ser traduzidos, por favor, utilize as nossas traduções.
Submenu “Desenvolvimento”: Só falta o Geany ser traduzido.
Submenu “Gráficos”: Faltam ser traduzidos para “pt_BR” – “Gtkam Digital Camera Browser”, “Mirage” e “LibreOffice Draw” (este último trata-se de uma “missão impossível”).
Submenu “Internet”: Faltam ser traduzidos para “pt_BR” – “Ceni”, “Claws Mail”, “Dillo”, “Firefox ESR”, “HexChat”, “Links 2”, “Modem Manager GUI”, “Sakis3G” e “Transmission”.
Submenu “Jogos”: Faltam ser traduzidos para “pt_BR” – “DOSBox Emulator” e “Mahjongg”.
Submenu “Multimídia”: Faltam ser traduzidos para “pt_BR” – “Asunder CD Ripper”, “Celluloid” (eu já expliquei acima o motivo), “SMTube”, “WinFF” (este projeto infelizmente está abandonado e por isso nunca será mesclado com as nossas traduções) e “XMMS”.
Submenu “Preferências”: Faltam ser traduzidos para “pt_BR” – “Bluetooth Manager”, “Screenlight” e “User Language”. Os arquivos “blueman-manager.desktop” e “User Language” são uma versão antiga e não é o arquivo que foi utilizado no antiX 22, por favor, compare com o nosso arquivo do GitLab ou com o arquivo utilizado no antiX 22.
Submenu “Sistema”: Faltam ser traduzidos para “pt_BR” – “Firetools” (eu já expliquei acima o motivo), “Modem Manager GUI” e “ROXTerm”.5 – Eu senti falta de ter um “trash.desktop”, sem ele o menu do clique com o botão direito do zzzFM não terá as traduções. As traduções relacionadas a Lixeira poderiam estar no arquivo “trash.desktop”.
6 – Sobre o menu do clique com o botão direito do zzzFM, eu sugiro alterar a posição da opção “Excluir (Shitf + Delete)” para ficar abaixo da opção “Send to Trash” (este menu não está traduzido para “pt_BR”). Eu acredito ser mais seguro a opção “Send to Trash (Delete)” ficar abaixo da opção Renomear (F2).
Renamear (F2)
Send to Trash (Delete)
Excluir (Shitf + Delete)Assim que for possível, eu irei inicializar a ISO “antiX-23-alpha1-runit_x64-full.iso” em computadores mais antigos que este que eu postei na minha mensagem anterior.

Thanks everyone for the very quick feedback so far.
Package Installer will need to be updated to make sure everything in it can be installed. I’ll put this down as ‘known issue’.
Future testing builds will (hopefully) get his fixed.About kernels – I’m not sure what to default to.
One idea was to use 4.19 as our legacy and a 6 series kernel for ‘modern’. At the moment there is no antiX 6 series kernel though.
We could ship 5.10 as legacy and a 6 series kernel as modern.
Another idea is to use the series in this alpha an not ship with a 6 series (it is very likely to be much more RAM/CPU intensive than previous versions).Please also comment on CPU/RAM usage. General responsiveness compared to previous antiX versions.
Modem manager was included to see if it actually works for those that need it.
For those with bluetooth devices, please see if it works. You will need to enable bluetooth via the runit-service-manager (in control centre as well as the menu).
Pipewire is not installed (and it is 99.9% unlikely to be installed on final iso). However, anyone wanting to install and test it out and provide feedback will be very welcome,Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.
antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

Great! I’ll try it out on my Dell Inspiron 5558.
Made it here on the Dell laptop. First try is running live using the Legacy 4.9 kernel –

I think a LOT of people are going to like the default wallpaper; very nice indeed! Thanks roki for sharing it and anti for including it!
Back later with additional tests.

Toying with the idea of running a seperate car play/android air play unit on my motorcycle handlebars.
Phones break when you do this motorcycle because of handlebar vibration.
These seperate units are tough and water proof and tie into the phone in your pocket using bluetooth or wifi.
To give you a idea.https://www.advrider.com/easy-carplay-or-android-auto-for-any-bike/
Lots of open desert out here. It is easy to get lost.
Might come in handy; hopefully it’ll last a long time; otherwise it’s on the pricey side.
Like all the things we are discussing here, there are both costs and benefits, useful features and potential consequences associated with their use.
Those concerned about their absolute privacy and location will have concerns; those who appreciate convenience and useful “directions” may find it helpful.
Choices, features, costs, benefits, concerns – which create the most concern?Personally I do appreciate technology, but I also recognize that everything comes at a cost of one form or another.

How to Search for AntiX solutions to your problemsIn reply to: Dell Chromebook Candy antiX 22 full iso
With antiX I can get sound working with apulse and I can then plug in my headphones and they work, but no success with Bluetooth.
I believe you need pulseaudio in antiX for bluetooth to work with audio devices. Pavucontrol (mixer) will route audio.
There might be a (complicated) way to make Alsa to work with some routing but I have not seen any.Live antiX Boot Options (Previously posted by Xecure):

Add openSUSE Tumbleweed to the list of distributions that have no issues with media or Bluetooth.
