After I try to start it manually, a “Xauthority does not exist” and a “xinit: server error” is the result in both laptops.

::Sounds like you have hardware issues.

::I found some solution and I need your opinion if it’s a secure one.
First, I replaced the 4.9.212 kernel with the 4.4.212 one. This fixed the issue with hashes and made all the system less “heavy” and faster. I should have tried this earlier. I had already used the 4.4 kernel in both laptops with antiX-19, because the 4.9 one had caused boot problems to both of them, every time I rebooted being connected to the internet, either wired or wirelessly. 4.4 kernel had helped me to overcome these problems.
Second, I installed connman-gtk and this makes me capable to send this post via wireless connection.
Everything seems to be ok. Should I leave it as it is?- This reply was modified 3 years, 1 month ago by andfree.

::Good news!
If you still have the original 4.9.212 kernel, you could boot using it and see if all is now ok.
Just for testing purposes (for me) and to see if the issue was a bad download.
Otherwise, stick with the 4.4 kernel. It is supported until Feb, 2022Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

::I rebooted using 4.9.12 kernel and the wifi connection is ok. Expected, because the fully-featured connman-gtk and not the kernel is what helped on that issue. As regards the issue about hashes, the problem remains. Then, still being connected to the net, I tried to reboot using 4.9.12 kernel again, and I faced a black screen. There was nothing else to do but shutdown by pressing the power button. So, the old boot problems remain, too. Finally, I rebooted using the 4.4.12 kernel and everything seems to be ok.
Tell me if you need any more tests, otherwise I’ll uninstall the 4.9.12 kernel, so as to boot automatically using the 4.4.12 one. Of course, I can install it again, if new tests become necessary.April 4, 2020 at 8:10 am #34340Forum Admin
