Hello,
I can’t install an NVIDIA driver for the 900 series (the exact reference is GTX960 launched in 2015)
I go through the Nvidia Driver Installer in the Control Center.
Here is what it has been offering me for several weeks.Installed is: (none) Which driver do you wish to install Main repos or debian-backports? 1: Main 418.181.07-1 2: MX Test 460.39-1~bpo10+1 3: Exit Enter Number of selectionThe 418 driver does not install. This driver is quite old.
I tried to install driver 460 (test) but it gives me a black screen.
I tried several kernels but it doesn’t change anything, I still get the 2 drivers 418 and 460 test.
With MX Linux, I use the 450 driver which works really well because I use for example the Webrender for hardware acceleration in Firefox.You can guess that I would like to install driver 450 to remove the screen tearing that annoys me on my screen.
Best regards,

Hello,
I’m new on this forum and sorry if I do some mistakes in English. French is my mother tong.
I’m a little bit trouble because I have noticed that “antiX 19 Full” has not the same options in English and in French in the window “add-desktop”.
I have tested my USB Live on my desktop (Intel i5-6400) and tested also my old laptop (Amd Athlon) with antiX installed. It’s not the same kernel for both and I have the same issue.
To be sure;
1) Icon “Favorite Application”
2) Applications
3) Preferences
4) Add Menu Item
5) In the window “add-desktop”, the line “Item Location”, we can choose;
-> 1) Application Menu
or
-> 2) Desktop Shortcut
or
-> 3) Personal.But for antiX 19 in french, In the window “add-desktop”, the line “Item Location”, it’s impossible to choose something. All the options are on the same line and the narrow at the end of line is not activated. Please, find attached my 2 screenshots (English versus french)
Here it is my full info of my desktop (Intel) with the AntiX USB Live

from BelgiumSince most people have smartphones, and, at least in Europe, most of those devices are running Android, here’s my list, that allows me to me a tiny bit freer from Google- I also use some extra privacy settings, have a switch to turn off sensors/camera/mic, turned off bluetooth scanning, limited wifi search and turned off Playstore :
*Browser – Bromite ( it’s open source, ad free, available from https://github.com/bromite/bromite/releases ), Firefox with privacy addons (it’s open source, ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*Calendar – etar (it’s open source, ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*Camera – Open camera (it’s open source, ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*Ebook reader- Aireader ( completely ad free, provides TTS functionality out-of-the-box https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.neverland.alreader&hl=en_US&gl=US), FBreader ( available in Google Playstore, has an instalable tts plug-in), Bookreader (open source fork of FBReader, available from https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.axet.bookreader/ ); Cool Reader (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.coolreader/ ) [yeah, I read a lot…. 🙂 ]
*E-mail – K-9 Mail (it’s open source, ad free, available from https://github.com/k9mail/k-9/releases )
*File Manager – X-plore (not open source but extremely feature rich, despite the free version having some features that are locked), “Material Files” (from Hai Zhang) – not as feature rich as the free version of X-plore, but great- it lacks integration with cloud drives, if that’s important for you, but allows sharing files via ftp server (it’s open source, ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*Gallery- There’s really no need for third party galleries, but, if you really want a nice alternative: Focus Go ( ad free, on Google Playstore)
*Office Suite – Collabora Office (it’s android’s LibreOffice port, largely compatible with MS Office formats, like .docx, etc, ad free, available from Google Playstore – ideal for viewing all kinds of documents, not so much for editing, at least not at the current time, unless you are in a pinch), Microsoft Office apps (free version, available from Google Playstore, require a free Microsoft account to activate, but can be used off-line, great for both viewing AND editing documents)
*Podcasts – AntennaPod (it’s open source, ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*Pdf reader – Adobe Reader (has a free version on Google Playstore – if it detects an Internet Connection, it makes you log on…), Xodo pdf reader (light, also allows to fill pdf forms, add/remove/reorder pages, create pdf files from scratch/pictures/files, has cloud connectivity, ad free, available on Google Playstore), Gaaiho pdf reader (very light pdf reader with annotation capabilities – has text re-flow but does not seem to always work-, ad free, on Google Playstore)
*Media player – VLC (it’s open source, ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*News/Rss Reader- Feedr – even allows you to download news and then you can read them off-line (ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*Scanner application – you can use your android device as a high quality and extremely fast scanner, that generates pdf files – there are many great apps that do this, “Mobile Doc Scanner” is, for me, the best one, but it’s not free. Strangly enough the best Free, and ad free scanner, for me, is Microsoft’s “Office Lens” (both apps are available from Google Playstore)
*Notes – Joplin (it’s open source, ad free, available from Google Playstore)
*Youtube – Newpipe (it’s open source, ad free, available fromhttps://newpipe.net/#download) -it’s fast, ad free and allows you to download videos/audio/substitles, what else do you need?EXTRA:
*NetGuard – a free application that acts as a firewall – filtering, per application. access to Wi-fi and/or Mobile Internet – a great application that allows using applications that have intrusive adds (I know adds are the away developers make money, but, sometimes they overkill on adds- for those cases, I black list them on NetGuard, all the rest… hey, devs deserve to be paid for their work, right? Give them a break, pay by watching a reasonable ammount of Publicity)
*GPS navigation – use alternative apps, available in your country (in Portugal we have “Meo drive”, a free, ad-supported, GPS map that works off line)
*Application Store- f-droid.org
*Light Casual games – Patience Revisited (available from Google Playstore)TIP: Use “web apps” instead of installing applications: for example- I have a Bromite icon to access 9gag, I do not need to install the 9gag app to view their content, same for MS Outlook, some news apps, etc…
You can use opensource alternative applications apps here:

Não consigo modificar o tipo de teclado durante a instalação de antiX 19.3.
Meu teclado é um Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600, até onde sei é um ABNT2.
Meu computador é muito potente: 8 CPUs, RAM 7,5 GB (montado sob especificação)
Já tenho uma partição (50GB) rolando Mint 20.1 e estou tentando montar o antiX 19.3 na outra (50 GB).
Qualquer ajuda será bem-vinda.

Topic: Laptop Screen Resolution
Hello team, I wonder if I can change my screen resolution to a higher value. When I look at the Nvidia X Server Settings, or Control Center > ARandR, the maximum set is 1366×768. My gpu is Nvidia GT240M, and before I switched to Antix, I could use higher resolution in microsoft windows, can we try something for that?
