I’ve had this issue with both antiX-19 64-bit and antiX-17 64-bit. I can’t see the login entry fields when I have two monitors.

I managed to setup my two monitors to work with antiX and my IceWM windows manager config files. I used arandr and saved the settings and added it to the IceWM startup config file. But I can’t figure out how to get Slim to show the login entry box in a place where I can see it.

At one point I could see the sign in box all the way to the right of one of the screens but I could only see a sliver of the entry box. In my current setup I can not see the sign in entry box at all. I can type my username and password blindly and hit enter and I am logged in.

I figured out that I could set auto login and bypass the sign in entry box on the Slim display manager screen. But I would prefer to see my login/sign in entry fields and type in my username and password.

I have another antiX box that I am using to test the latest “testing” version of antiX-19 32-bit. On that box the sign in fields are in the upper left of the screen. How do I make that happen? The standard antiX setup has Slim showing the entry fields in the center of the screen. This is apparently what is causing the trouble when I have two monitors.

I looked around in the configuration files but I cannot figure out where this setting may be to place the sign in fields in the upper left corner, or in the center, or wherever I want. Can someone point me in the right direction for this setting? Is it in the slim.conf file and I am missing it?

Thanks for any tips you can share. My inxi -Fxz follows.

Thanks, Koo.

To clarify, I built this up from core. I don’t have antix control centre. Do you know of another way? (GUI-less, probably.)

But thank you for that code snippet for starting x. I might swap that in, instead instead of my current way, to see the difference.

Well I dug out my HP Omnibook XE3 with 128 megs of RAM and a PIII 800. Since it is early 2000’s I required Plop to boot from a floppy and then from my USB.
Now my disappointment and please don’t get me wrong here!
As I mentioned before running in small amounts of RAM is a total dog!
I can flip in my Mandrake 7.0 from early 2000’s and instantly start installing instead of this sluggish live struggle. My CPU is basically idling but my RAM is 70+ percent in use and after 1/2 hour GParted finally struggles to open, barely.
Since myself and others are using legacy hardware, why can’t we have an older method of installation instead of 3/4’s dead live?
I can flip in the now extinct Mandrake 7.0 and have a full install in about a half hour.
I’m attempting to install 17.4 and there doesn’t appear to be a conventional method of installation like I’m familiar with from the early 2000’s.
If my hard drive was easily accessible, I would remove it and do a full partition on a different computer and reinstall it but this is an inconvenient option.
What are my options for a more conventional installation so I can toss the live?
Oh and like I mentioned earlier if you want an OS to look questionable, attempt to run it entirely in the RAM and watch it perform less efficiently than a full install. This is often what I did years ago to test drive a new distribution.
One reason why I kind of went away from Linux was due to using commands in a terminal and finding it difficult to find command information but at least back then I learned how to partition from the start including separate partitions instead of dumping everything in root and very little swap.
Presently there is Linpus Linux 9.4 on this Omnibook and that OS has been extinct since perhaps 2009. I first discovered it on Acer Aspire One Netbooks back in the XP days where you could get an Acer Aspire One with either Windows XP or Linpus Lite.
Now on a positive note, the graphics are fantastic and very modern looking on this almost 20 year old laptop. If Windows 2000 ran very well antiX should perform better.
There is a second RAM slot and I think this HP might be capable of 512 megs.

Hi again and thanks. This board is 1998 vintage and was originally intended as PII but a bios flash upgraded it to PIII.
The information is extremely limited stating maxed out at a PIII 450 but I have seen them with as high as PIII 700’S and they take a maximum of 350 megs of that brutally expensive SD ram back then I remember it being hundreds of dollars but over the years I hoarded a sack full!!
As it was I purchased it with a 6.4gb hard drive which I still have and working and it took another BIOS flash to allow a 50gb hard drive to work as well.
The FX5700LE is MSI and all drivers are available and it came into my possession in 2004 purchasing an MSI K8T Neo2fir board with AGP. Later I discovered that this style of AGP is easier to find and is backwards compliant and actually fits in this QDI board. Its also a 128meg card compared to the pathetic 5meg originally installed along with a PCI video card I installed for multiple monitors but the FX5700LE is a multi monitor card as well. What are it’s capabilities? I got a Toledo core 4800+dual core for the K8T and it handles Windows 10 32 profesional very well and they finally came up with drivers for Windows 10 for it which weren’t around when Win10 came out.
Mandrake and other distros were used on it when they came out and that was back when you had to install totally from scratch and had to know how to set up partitions TOTALLY which in reality should still be the case because it results in lack of knowledge and learning!
As for the “live” operation, I have very little use for it and it can actually make an OS look bad!!!
How you may wonder? I was given a mint HP OmniBook F2308KT (designed and sold with Win98/2000) and I believe its maxed out at 248 megs of RAM and try to run live on that! It couldn’t even run Puppy Linux live being run entirely in the ram! I pointed this out to them and we were able to set up a swap partition and install it and it worked great. Not enough ram and it will not work or it will work like crap with a bit more. Installed on the hard drive with a large swap and it runs like brand new with 98 or 2000! There is a reason for the swap partition and having a newer flavor do everything automatically prevents the Newbie from understanding this especially when you just cannot install more ram.
Now for my 1998 QDI most likely the 5 meg video card will work but I can put the better FX5700LE in it to make things easier to install.

Marcelocripe I can work with a Google translator which I use because I gravitate to 1930’s radios including European and rely on the translator to get around. I’m curious to see what works on this board. Due to the fortune I paid for it back in the day and the K8T makes me keep them and still use them. They still work great for dedicated computers for PDF file manuals I acquired for my vintage radios and cars and out in my garage. Yes I drive cars over 60 years old and my oldest is a 1950 Mercury Sport Sedan and all the parts manuals are PDF instead of dragging out my original OEM manuals I can look at them on a computer.

Hello,

I installed nestopia (a Super Nintendo emulator) on Antix 19.3.
When I load a game I can hear the sound, so I know it’s working, however the window remains blank (all black).

apt-cache show nestopia
tells me:
Nestopia requires OpenGL 3.2 or later.
glxinfo | grep “OpenGL version”
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 18.3.6

This is were I got stuck. Can anyone give me advice on how to proceed to get nestopia graphics working properly? I wouldn’t know where to begin upgrading the OpenGL version. Searching the repositories didn’t yield any obvious answers.

Thanks

It seems like installing audacity damaged the system on my laptop with AntiX 19 Base, 64 Bit.
Synaptic is no longer working, no files can be installed. I have tried to change repos with repo manager, it doesn’t seem to work.
Says that outdata file is full for the repos.
I choose full uninstall of audacity, but the dependencies stayed, only audacity uninstalled.

Lucky it was the laptop and not my desktop which is used for work, that would have been quite a disaster!

Any suggestions on how to get the system properly working again, or do I have to reinstall Antix Base ?

I am trying to make a recording by external microphone on a desktop with antiX 17 Base, 64_bit system.
The microphone is connected to the microphone jack, old Philips microphone.
Traverso seems to be working but there is no sound recorded.

(I also have a laptop, with AntiX 19 Base 64 bit, which I believe has built in microphone, but Traverso is not in AntiX 19 repos, nor can I find any other suitable program for recording from internal microphone – preferably not command line but something easy to use.)

Whichever solution will do, on desktop with AntiX 17 or laptop with AntiX 19, but the recording needs to be done.

This is the desktop with AntiX 17:

anticapitalista’s sig contains: “antiX with runit – leaner and meaner.”
I agree. Perhaps the ‘AntiX Updater’ script for runit should be changed from “apt” to “apt-get”?

What does work is: sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
apt does NOT work.

Great distro… My main boot of the 25 bootable on my 3 HDs.
Of course I relish its finely tuned jwm wm which is the only one I use now.

1. It is possible to change, but it’s already at the max resolution.

Dear skidoo,

I have installed Antix in be_French.
Please see my screenshot (be_french menu.jpg). You will see the general menu in French and you will notice that corrections made in Transifex are not yet updated in Antix.
Nearly all my programs are in English or not well translated in French (only one or two sentences translated in the menu).
Please find info details of my laptop.

On my second screenshot (be_fr ROXTerminal in English.jpg), you will see my Terminal. All is in English. Why in English, this a French installation?

Thank you for your support.

New to Antix while using MX for several months. The ASUS T100TA is one of the older W8.1 laptops with keyboard docs that got slow with W10. I was able to boot Antix-19.3 right off into a 6 Gb partition, which was great since this tablet/laptop has 32bit efi but 64 bit processor and is quite a pain. For the last couple of hours, the T100TA has been running quite well. Nicely done – my previous attempt with Xubuntu, Lubuntu and linuxium respins gave c-state errors and Antix is a real step up.

Unfortunately, I cannot get the internal Broadcom 802.11abgn Wireless SDIO adapter (as listed in W10) to work for wireless and have to run from an old Panda wireless adapter. I have been through a lot of forums and tried moving files from the nvram to /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43340-sdio.txt and tried to load the various on-board linux drivers but no luck.

Sound does not work either – note that sound does not work in W10 and requires loading the old W8.1 sound drivers. The W10 boot does allow me check for failed hardware, so I’m keeping that until everything in Antix is fixed.

I thought it would be worth posting here first before I try upgrading the kernel in case the support for this baytrail device was improved. I have seen a lot of the videos as I prepared for the MX install and was choosing between MX and Antix, but I have not found a solution for wifi and sound using the internal components.

Thanks for all of the effort so far.

I did purchase a brand new Chromebook back in November. I had been looking at the Google Pixelbook Go but at $649 for the least expensive model that was too much.
I did put a few hundred into it because I wanted a backlit keyboard and decent performance. I just missed the best deal around Cyber Monday but saved at least $150 over what my model is going for now, so I did shop for a decent deal.

With that exception I have not bought any other new hardware in several years. I have a five year old laptop and three other “cast-off” units I got free.
I’ve been getting my Android phones using Swappa or similar service, looking for good units that are around a year old with at least 1-2 years of software updates available.

Naturally the older the computer hardware happens to be the more likely I have antiX installed; it’s on most of my systems. No commercial software on these computers!

Asking for better understanding.
What is the difference between this and making a file containing an encrypted file system.
I am thinking similar to the live usb persistence file or a swap file.
