Wallon
Dear All,
I have some annoying things with my new installation with two screens/monitors in antiX 21.
I’m a translator for antiX and MX Linux. For my personal comfort, I bought and installed a second 75hz display-port monitor.
I asked for help on the MX Linux forum to get my new installation (one 60hz HDMI screen and one 75hz display-port screen) working because the ArandR and Display softwares were not working properly.As usual, I used a Live usb key (Windows 10 + Rufus), I chose the Space-IceWM environment on the Live key and I did the installation on another USB3 key by saving the settings of my Live USB key. I did the whole installation in French with Linux kernel 5.
I did the installation on antiX 21 with the ArandR software. I saved the settings in the file /home/Wallon/.screenlayout/default.sh.
Here it is the code of my default.sh file.
I’m not sure if my screen on the display-port is set to 75hz because in the info full details report, there is no mention of the refresh rate for this screen.1) If you see something wrong in this file, please tell me ?
#!/bin/sh xrandr --output DVI-I-0 --off --output DVI-I-1 --off --output HDMI-0 --mode 1920x1080 --pos 1920x0 --rotate normal --output DP-0 --primary --mode 1920x1080 --rate 75 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output DP-1 --off --output DP-2 --off --output DP-3 --off --output DP-4 --off --output DP-5 --off2) If I automatically launch in full screen these programs for example;
– LibreOffice,
– Firefox ESR,
– SpaceFm,
– Geany,
I can’t drag and drop the software window from one screen to the other?I found a rather cumbersome procedure to move a window from one screen to another.
a) Alt + F5 (Restore)
b) With the mouse, click on the blue bar above the screen, hold the click and drag to the other screen
c) Alt + F10 (Maximize)3) Please see the screenshot attached to my message.
When I do a printscreen of either the left or right screen (pointed with my mouse), antiX merges the image of my 2 screens.
How can I make a full printscreen of one screen without going through a window selection?I would like a choice like for example;
Do you want a printscreen:
a) Left screen,
b) Right screen,
c) Merge both screens?4) How to have the taskbar below on both screens?
5) I recall that I did the installation by choosing Space-IceWM.
If I change the desktop environment for example Space-Fluxbox, I lose a screen ! I have to restart my desktop to get my 2 Space-IceWM screens back.
If I change the desktop environment for example Rox-IceWm, I lose a screen ! I have to reboot my desktop to find my 2 Space-IceWM screens.
In short, I can’t change my desktop environment. It seems that ArandR is not automatically reactivated. I say that, I say nothing, it’s perhaps another software which must be reactivated to recover my 2 screens.6) Don’t ask me to test with the Linux kernel 4 because my NVIDIA driver doesn’t work as usual. I would have to do a full install with kernel 4 and install the driver on that kernel.
Best regards,

I install 19.4 on an Nvme drive from usb which I made with DD on ArchLabs. After partitioning the drive with gparted
Had no trouble at all booting from the usb to the desktop installer or installing.
After booting to the desktop had no internet needed to do the below to fix it.There is a bug in the runit editions of antiX-19.4 (full and base) after installation via the gui installer. Fix: As root user, remove all /etc/sv/* folders EXCEPT /etc/sv/getty-* <<<<now I see errors on the tty boot screen but it works..Had an update for connman which killed the internet. But your fix got it working again. (connman is an app name for this program, been painful right from the start.) Love you Ceni
Also updated the kernel to Linux antix19 5.10.52-antix.1-amd64-smp which fixed hardware issues.
So far have install a bunch from source code.

Did you experience problems with any USB or internal drive not mounting automatically? Do you need to mount these partitions from the terminal? DO they only mount as root?
If I use a SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive 128 GB Type C USB drive, it works perfectly with my Dell Inspiron 5558. Therefore I do not suspect any USB drive issues, not with this hardware. I’ve also used other USB drives with this same hardware and they also work well.
I conclude that: 1) My system works fine with this release and so does my USB drive.
If, however, I take the exact same image and attempt to install it on some new hardware that I recently purchased, an Acer Aspire 5 Model A515-55 with a NVME SSD, I can’t get it to respond at the USB boot prompt. I find this odd because I’ve been able to install both Siduction 2021 and Debian Bullseye 11 on the Aspire with multiple different USB drives.
If it’s any consolation, I experience the exact same issue with MX Linux. I was able to install a fresh instance of the latest MX Linux 21 on my Dell Inspiron 5558 without any trouble, but both MX Linux and antiX won’t even show their boot menus on the Aspire. I have Debian, siduction, PCLinuxOS and Endeavor OS installed on it right now, and I was also able to get KDE Neon installed on the Aspire.
If you’d rather see this information elsewhere, let me know and I’ll copy the contents of this message, post it elsewhere and remove it here. For the moment, since you asked about it.

Brian MasinickIn reply to: Remove software
Xecure
Hi. I was planing on writing an article to publish on the antiX wiki related to how to slim antiX.
Here are a few easy key points:
1. Remove all video drivers not related to your current xorg video driver.
Runinxi -G | grep "driver\|unloaded"
and write down the xorg video driver and the other drivers (just in case).
See all installed video driver packages:
apt list --installed | grep "xserver-xorg-video-" | cut -d"/" -f1
You will see al list of all xorg video drivers/modules. You just need to keep:xserver-xorg-video-fbdev xserver-xorg-video-vesaand the ones that include the list of drivers you saw in the first command (including any unloaded). The rest you can remove manually (using synaptic or the command line or whatever you want).
2. Removing all firmware you don’t use.
antiX comes with an immense amount of firmware packages to try and give support to as many devices as possible. You can see all installed firmware packages with
apt list --installed | grep "firmware" | cut -d"/" -f1
It may not be intuitive, but some of them you can recognize if they are needed at all.
For example, if you don’t have a bluetooth device, you can uninstall bluez-firmware. If you don’t have any AMD CPU or GPU, you can remove firmware-amd-graphics. If you don’t have a broadcom wifi/ethernet network chips, remove firmware-b43-installer, firmware-b43legacy-installer, firmware-bnx2, firmware-bnx2x, firmware-brcm80211 packages. Also, remove the firmware-samsung (if available), as this is for samsung’s ARM chips (not fr normal x86 PCs).
Use
inxi -Fxz
as a reference to see what devices your hardware has if you don’t already know.
You can check information for each package with:
apt show firmware-atheros
To understand what each is used for. The linux-free and linux-nonfree ones are very big but it is best to keep them, as probably at least one of them has something you need for the computer to work.A first start. I will continue later when I have more time.

General Live Boot Parameters for antiX.h2
Oh, good, glad to hear anticapitalista packaged new one. 3.3.06 is really quite good, it handles a lot of small and large issues that were found and fixed over the past months, I had a lot of trouble getting bluetooth stable and reliable for support people, it took me 3 tries, 3.3.00 was first try, then it took 2 more releases after that to get it reliable, or as reliable as something as odd as bluetooth can be. I still see subtle issues out there, but can’t figure them out until I get full datasets, there’s a lingering raspberry pi 4 failure to show bluetooth sometimes, but not always, that I don’t know the cause of.
Although 3.3.06 superficially looks very similar to 3.0.xx, internally I think over half the codebase has been totally refactored, I’d estimate that almost as much was written or rewritten between 3.0.00 and 3.3.06 as 2.3.56 > 2.9 > 3.0.00. One of the results of that was a lot of real optimizations that resulted in maybe 50% more code internally running at quite close to the speed it ran before that new code was added. All the BSD stuff was completely rewritten, and all the block device stuff was totally refactored, that’s -R, -L/–logical, -D, -p/-P, -o, though the Linux block device logic isn’t actually as good as the fully refactored BSD block device logic, eventually the linux stuff will use the same type of logic as bsd block device tool uses since it’s much better, but that’s a lot of work.
I don’t believe antix really does the ARM stuff, but ARM is a good example of totally randomly changing system info detections, it’s literally case by case, new SOC / embedded device by device, so any distro that focuses on ARM should never use old inxi’s, stuff just won’t work, that’s the fault of the ARM spec, or rather, failure to create one reliable spec, not inxi.
As someone who scripts solutions to avoid the tedium of doing stuff manually, I’ve actually thought of just making my own debian repo, but that would be more work, which I don’t really need, and it wouldn’t really help users that much since they’d have to know to install it, and at that point, they might as well just install inxi or pinxi and use the -U to update, it’s not really any work to do that.
The only incomplete current feature is btrfs RAID type output support, but I gave it a start, and honestly just don’t like the btrfs reporting tools, they are really not very complete or good, unless I’ve missed something, and they also require root, again, unless I’ve missed something, so that feature isn’t implemented yet. I don’t generally like features that require root, and only use them if there absolutely no other way to get the data.

inxi system information script (install info) :: inxi git
Even as time goes by, we continue to have a similar outlook. As far as “feature rich” software, as any software “gracefully ages”, it is the exception, not the rule, for the “mid section” to grow. Some people refactor and rewrite software. That only goes so far and then the same happens. You’re in good company with the vast majority of GNU utilities. Some of the finest GNU replacements for the original UNIX utilities are often 2-4 times larger than what they replaced, mostly because they have so many options and additional capabilities. It’s not all bad; there are many really good tools, but there are not very many “single purpose tools” available any more.
inxi actually has hit a few key points:
1. I knew for at least a year or two or three before the Perl rewrite from bash/gawk that trying to have this complex data/logic run via gawk/bash was clinically insane, I knew this because I actually feared working on most inxi features of any complexity at all. I would usually have to psych up for weeks to just approach working on bash/gawk inxi because it was so painful and difficult. I also knew nobody in their right mind would ever take it over. I’ve been tempted to warn some smaller cross platform sys info tools to not fall into the bash trap, but they did, and can never escape. I also had a very real fear that at some point, bash/gawk inxi would literally just not run as it got bigger, or take so long to run that it would become useless.
2. rewriting it to perl, which mostly involved translating the bash/gawk logic into perl, sometimes almost directly. Some of the most directly translated logic proved to hide the most tricky to find and fix bugs, so I’ve tried to dump as much of that as possible when I come across it, I can almost always recognize it as a direct translation because it makes little logical sense, unless it was from bash/gawk. That’s logic that was created to work around the weakness and badness of bash+gawk.
3. refactoring that rewrite over the last year or so into better perl, as my perl got better. that is still ongoing, but most of the biggest stuff is done. Hint: perl is technically fastest when you use the most perl type expressions and logic and syntax, so I was able to pick up a lot of speed/optimization by switching to the more native perl syntax, I’d avoided that since it’s very hard to understand until you get used to it. Native perl using tested/optimized perl syntax is FAST. It’s not uncommon for me to gain 5% total execution speed just by switching to better logic/syntax internally, though most of the low hanging fruit is done, the remainder generally involves making the code less readable.
4. moving away from some code shortening tricks I’d used to avoid having inxi get too long physically, those always bite me in the butt in future changes/updates, so I’ve started unraveling some of those. My newer preference is to put raw execution speed first, unless it conflicts with readability/maintainability, then readability.
5. Because I wasn’t very good at perl when I started the inxi perl rewrite, I tended to use a lot of copy and paste code bits, without understanding them, which led to using different methods to do the same thing, which leads to super hard to read and debug code, so now I always use the same, and have moved most of those offenders away and made most code use standard efficient native perl, not the more conceptually easy to understand but more inefficient methods I’d used to avoid learning the ‘right’ way to do it. Array/Hash references in particular were a big stumbling block, they are hard to really understand so I avoided them in the initial rewrite, except when I accidentally used them in copied code without understanding them.
Perl users have a super annoying, and totally wrong, expression, TMTOWTDI, there’s more than one way to do it. Perl encourages this, which is a big reason perl got hte reputation for creating write only codebases. Also, by doing some intensive optimizations using real optimizer tools, I learned that consistently while there might be technically more than one way to do something, there usually were only one or two ‘good’ or ‘right’ ways to do it. Then a few years working with this codebase taught me that further, there’s also really only a handful of ways to write perl code that is easy to work with over time.
6. The truism that well refactored code always opens more possibilities, and never closes any, seems to be a rock solid principle of coding, I have never found any time where a refactor did not make it more robust, more powerful, and easier to add support for new situations. And I likewise have never found any time where not doing a refactor when required made anything better.
For a while I was fighting the code expansion, but now I gave up, with Perl, it really doesn’t matter as long as I avoid falling into some traps that can lead to something being literally 700x slower to do than another way involving a bit more code. An odd thing is that despite perl users pointing to perl modules as great tools, I’ve found in many cases, using them is far worse/slower than coding the stuff directly, it also keeps the dependencies down, which is always critical for inxi, which is supposed to run anywhere. In fact, I just got some bugs fixed from an issue report I got where the guy tried running it on debian sarge or etch, I forget which, and it had all these bugs, which are now fixed, lol, so inxi runs as intended on 15+ year old os/hardware, and it will run on brand new hardware with Perl 7, when that is released.
The inxi to perl experiment was a total success, I never fear working on it anymore, it’s easy to do, and as my Perl gets better, so does the code since I’m always refactoring stuff when it causes roadblocks/obstacles. Maybe the downside is that I don’t fear the codebase anymore, usually it’s just too easy to add stuff, in fact, during covid lockdown, I checked off some longstanding feature requests, bluetooth, lvm, etc, which were HARD to do, and would have been impossible to do with old bash inxi.
I still test inxi on a 200mghz laptop with 192 MiB ram, running I think debian lenny, optimizations are super obvious on that system since they can knock off literal seconds. For normal optimizations, I tend to do things that will result in 0.01 or more seconds improvement since those tend to a dd up over time, particularly in loops/repeated tests. I’ve tended now to toss more and more data into ram to speed it up, since inxi only needs to run once in a while, how much cpu/ram it eats up isn’t really relevant, though I do wince when I see it using something like 32MiB to run, lol.
But it’s been reasonably fun, except for annoying github issue posters, but that’s life, script kiddies demanding dumb features are always going to be annoying, otherwise it’s overall been pretty pleasant.
Re small single purpose tools, I think I tended to try to get to that point, but then over years I realized that all the fixes required to handle diverse hardware/os/software scenarios were impossible to handle while maintaining simplicity, so I don’t even fret about that anymore. I see a few not to be mentioned light sys info tools fail to handle some scenarios that inxi handles easily because they are trying to be too terse and clever in their code, and that results in the code being unable to resolve or handle some corner cases. I don’t think inxi has any code or internal complexity that weren’t required to handle real data/user/os/hardware situations, and I try more and more now to add in comments to logic that doesn’t seem to make any sense to explain what it handles, why, so I don’t accidentally refactor it out in the future.
inxi docs are also now much better, though inxi itself, actually pinxi, will always be the primary reference, but the docs are a lot better, that’s to help me too, and to avoid cluttering up inxi with urls and links to resources etc.

inxi system information script (install info) :: inxi git
Hi Brian, nice to hear from you too! I’ve recently been making my inxi.changelog much more user friendly, you can find it on github inxi, it’s cleaner and better organized now. I was amused to see that the inxi -Ca feature was actually primarily developed with Antix users, I can’t remember if they asked for it, I think I’d been thinking about a cpu mitigation / security report for a while before implementing it, so I suspect it was a basic issue/feature request someone made, then I realized how easy it wast to implement, and with antix samples, antix forum support, etc, we got that one done.
I agree re what I consider ‘newer’ vintage thinkpads, I actually asked over at thinkpad forums https://forum.thinkpads.com/ way back when before upgrading from my trusty but annoying [that oscillating cpu fan speed bug, lol…] and failing t42 to the t400 series, I was warning away from t430,440,450 due to keyboard issues, but 400 [still has the tall rectangular ‘classic’ size screen], t420, has the wide but less high screen, are very good, and rock solid. Batteries are the main issues there. but ssds, from intel, crucial, samsung, are cheap [avoid the weird brands for ssds, it’s not worth the few dollars you save – warranty time shows all, 5 years is what I look for] per GiB now, that generation ram is cheap if you get it used on ebay, as long as the laptop is working, it’s going to be fine. Old spinning metal disks however are literally way past EOL at this point, and laptop spinning drives were always terrible anyway, so I consider a spinning drive in a laptop now a no no, ssds in 250-1000 GiB are just too cheap to warrant trying to save a few dollars there, plus the ssds are so much faster, and you don’t have to worry about banging the laptop and breaking the spinning hdd.
It took me a while to realize that when people asked my advice re what laptops to get, there was no point, since the only laptop I’d personally get is a thinkpad anyway, at that point, it just comes down to which one. Avoid ideapads, I had the misfortune to volunteer to work on one of those, thinking it would be that rock solid guts/mechanics of a thinkpad, it’s not. I find going to thinkforums to ask what thinkpads to avoid is generally worth it if I’m looking at a newer generation thinkpad and want to avoid known issues.
check out the new inxi, it’s at 3.3.06, it’s gotten kind of, cough, how do I put this politely?… feature rich, lol. Lots of useful stuff, particularly for support, -E/–bluetooth took several iterations to get useful for support, but as usual, -v8 will show everything, including the kitchen sink. Raid/lvm support, and fixing some longstanding issues with wrong disk used percentages, required doing a full internal refactor of all mounted, unmounted, disk, raid, lvm modules. Also has hugely upgraded bsd support, with a focus on openbsd, which I like, and freebsd, which I’m less fond of after doing a lot of work on it over past months.

In reply to: Free Debian of systemd by using antiX Repos
LinuxFan84
Thank you for your answer and information.
I saw it and it was my plan to start with antiX net (or to go with antiX core/full and purge all the things i have no usage for). But then i read somewhere that antiX net does not provide a installer that supports setting up of an LVM with crypt_LUKS, this was the point that brought me temporarily off my plan. For sure one day i will find the time to read some Gentoo or Arch tutorial regarding this point and make it run with antiX.
antiX is great and yes .. its the most extensive live usb on the planet and even much more.. its like a swiss army knife.. for everyone something on it – for my taste too much 🙂 I have a fetish for minimalism and therefore i took debian and purged a lot of packages (avahi, the bluetooth stuff, ect.)
My question was not only based on a end-user perspective but also of a developer view. Basically it should be possible to morph debian to antix or make a FrankenDebian out of it but still running great. At the moment i have too much work so i started this topic to see what people think about and what experience they have. But in next weeks i will do some experiments regarding it and at the end if all fails (try to morph debian, try to install antiX net and set up LVM/luks on commandline.. i will take the full edition and purge it down to the minimalism i need for peace in my life)

All hardware in this build was newly bought, and the Comfast PCIe wifi adapter is for me a known quantity, I have 2 PCs built using it. It is necessary to use a kernel in the 5.xx range for the chipset and driver to be known in the headers.
I have recently experienced invalid signatures when running updates, which appear at first sight to be unrelated to comms. issues.

I used a plug-in Usb wifi adapter to get the initial updates done, which connected hotplug. Optic fibre router is a ZTE Corporation item supplied by the service provider which has been in use nearly a year without trouble.
My system is now stable and connects automatically when the wifi network is already running. If not running then becomes available, hotplug connection is usually not made. If I try to push things along by running Ceni manually, trouble usually starts, with a soft blocked interface wlan1, and related files present in /run/wpa_supplicant. This does not surprise me as they should be there if a hotplug connection is to succeed.
A am waiting for news of changes or improvements to Connman, but having already failed with it caution prevails.

Hi Moddit,
Thanks for suggestions.
I really need to use apulse in my minimal install – and control centre isn’t installed in that. Openbox comes with a menu configuration tool, so this might be an opportunity to play with that!
About the GPU error message when launching firefox from the command line (same with or without using apulse in the launch command), the only about:config items I have modified are the four suggested to enable sound (security:sandbox:content… read write level and one other). Since I didn’t try launching from the command line before I modified those, I don’t know if that is the cause of the GPU error message. (The only card that is problematic is the wireless one which includes both wifi and bluetooth functions. It isn’t disabled in the BIOS but is “hardblocked” by the physical switch on the laptop.)
Never heard of firefox telemetry or glean before. Not really clear about it, but after brief look seems to be Mozilla tool for gethering info on system performance (for good or evil <g>).
Weirdly, when I booted this machine (Antix 17, yesterday no sound from speakers, sound via output from headphone jack to external speaker) TODAY, there is sound now coming through both front laptop speakers with the menu launched speaker-test.
It was rather distorted/ lots of static, but cleared up pretty much after I “messed” with alsamixer (I think zeroing the microphone was the thing that improved things). Part of the messing involved moving to the pieces not visible that you mentioned <g>, so thanks for that thought.
Today VLC will not play YouTube videos directly (using URL). This is a known bug and a lua patch on github, which I may try. This machine has version 3.0.11. My two other systems run antix 19 and have vlc version 3.0.12 which DOES play YouTube URLs.
VLC does play a test.wav file however, and is playing a youtube audio that I downloaded with youtube-dl, so no big practical issue.
Sound on linux is so much fun <g>.

In reply to: Pipewire to manage audio in antiX 21
Xecure
So, these are the opinions of two people.
I wanted to report this test.Thanks, calciumsodium. This is what I wanted to hear. Real life experience. For now, pulseaudio still seems to have better quality, even if it uses a bit more resources and lags a bit.
For bluetooth headphones the quality of sound is better with pipewire, but probably for speakers it will still need to improve a lot.
Thanks for testing. Maybe in antiX 23 we can recommend people to install pipewire instead of pulseaudio when experiencing audio problems that cannot be solved with ALSA.Using pulse/ apulse has never given me much bother (years of usage) so will stay with it.
I am not suggesting for everyone to replace it, but asking for other people’s experience.
ALSA is still the best option (but to get best results, depending on your device, you will need to configure it further, which is not that easy). Pulseaudio brings a lot of latency (for professionals, JACK is the better option). pipewire aims to replace all of them (thou still speaking to the ALSA server, as that is what talks directly with kernel and hardware), being able to interface as pulseaudio with a similar latency to JACK.
You can read a bit about each of them here and why they exist: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/coi4dt/a_complete_guide_of_and_debunking_of_audio_on/antiX Live system enthusiast.
General Live Boot Parameters for antiX.Hi all,
Because of a problem with my built in wifi and bluetooth card, I have been trying different versions of antix and other distros seeking to find one that the hardware would work with. (It is the subject of another thread.)
Today, I tried to use what I thought was a LIVE Debian 10.9 iso booting from a usb. It didn’t work well – taking an enormous amount of time and ultimately getting to a blinking command hyphen without a prompt.
So, I then tried it on my newest computer.
After it ran a long time, a screen came up and I explored it for a while before trying to shut it down. After choosing logout to shut down, the screen went blank except for two rectangles. After a few minutes, I shut off the power.
Since this, when I boot into the linux distro on this machine, after log in it just displays a window saying my window manager is not usable. After a few seconds I note that either the fan or the disk is running loudly, so I shut the computer down to avoid possible heat damage.
The windows install on a separate hard drive on the same machine is working fine.
I rechecked that iso and found out that it was an installer version NOT a live iso. So I believe that it started installing while it was booting the machine.
When I boot with a live antix 17 distro, I can see that the files still exist on the drive.
I am not sure what was mangled on the ssd with the linux distro and I would appreciate any advice about how I can diagnose this and fix.
I realize this isn’t providing a bunch of useful technical details; be happy to provide them if people suggest what…
Thanks in advance.

P.S. When I boot a live antix 19.4 distro, it comes up to a command line on this machine and I am not able to launch X. This usb does boot to a gui on another machine. A 17 antix usb does boot to a gui.

Okay, I’ve compressed and attached the auth, kern and Xorg logs to this reply — file size was much smaller than I anticipated so I was able to upload it here instead of on an external site.
Thanks Robin for the heads-up; tried unloading that ipw2200 driver like you said, yet my laptop still did not wake from sleep afterwards. Once I get more time I will try going through each driver manually like you said, thanks.
I have a few more details about my laptop that could help narrow things down:
– I am not using the internal Intel WiFi card to connect to the internet, instead I am using an external PCMCIA card with the BCM4321 chipset (it’s a Netgear WN511B).
– Even though I am fairly certain that this specific T43 came with Bluetooth support (there is a Bluetooth light on the indicator LED panel), no Bluetooth adapter is detected under Linux or Windows. Apparently this could be a southbridge issue judging by what pops up on Google, but I’m not sure.In reply to: .Xresources for urxvt
arp
System is up to date (below).
I now took out the first four .Xresources lines, but that makes urxvt white rather than solarized, which is what I think the color package is. I also tried using only the “xcalc” and “colours” lines (the original .Xresources file). I figured out they point to separate config files. When I do that, I get an xrdb error on “line 92”, but none of these files has 92 lines. So Kinda confused now. Thanks for looking at the issue….System: Host: AEPmac Kernel: 4.9.0-264-antix.1-amd64-smp x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 8.3.0 parameters: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-264-antix.1-amd64-smp root=UUID=f30eb066-e6c8-49fc-b306-8c06b1f398f8 ro vga=0x0317 quiet Desktop: IceWM 2.3.4 dm: SLiM 1.3.6 Distro: antiX-19.3_x64-full Manolis Glezos 15 October 2020 base: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) Machine: Type: Desktop System: Apple product: iMac5,1 v: 1.0 serial: <filter> Chassis: type: 13 v: Mac-F42786A9 serial: <filter> Mobo: Apple model: Mac-F42786A9 v: DVT serial: <filter> BIOS: Apple v: IM51.88Z.0090.B09.0706270921 date: 06/27/07 Memory: RAM: total: 1.94 GiB used: 835.9 MiB (42.0%) RAM Report: permissions: Unable to run dmidecode.

anticapitalista
There is a bug in the runit editions of antiX-19.4 (full and base) after installation via the gui installer.
Fix: As root user, remove all /etc/sv/* folders EXCEPT /etc/sv/getty-*Alternatively, BEFORE installation, change line 25 (as root) of /usr/share/gazelle-installer-data/installer.conf to this:
#ENABLE_SERVICES=anacron,cron,sudo,rpcbind,cpufrequtils,smartmontools,acpi-support,acpid,hddtemp,dbus,gpm,saned,avahi-daemon,irqbalance,loadcpufreq,rmnologin,mdadm,lvm2,wicd,connman,connman-vpn,ofono,dundee,haveged,ssh,openVPN,bluetooth,rsync,cups,cups-browsed
