antiX-22 released

[Forum Admin anticapitalista]

antiX-22 is a new release update of our 21 series based on Debian bullseye.

As usual we offer the following completely systemd-free and for this particular upgrade – elogind-free flavours for both 32 and 64 bit architecture. Available iso files for sysVinit or runit.

antiX-full (c1.4GB) – 4 windows managers – IceWM (default), fluxbox, jwm and herbstluftwm plus full libreoffice suite.

antiX-base (c800MB) – 4 windows managers – IceWM (default), fluxbox, jwm and herbstluftwm.

antiX-core (c460MB) – no X, but should support most wireless.

antiX-net (c180MB)- no X. Just enough to get you connected (wired) and ready to build. (NOTE – to connect to the Internet, you might need to type as root user dhclient eth0 or eth1)

The 32 bit version uses a non-pae kernel.

This is predominantly an update of our last release (antiX-21), but with a newer 4.9.0-326 kernel, latest 3 series IceWM, latest firefox-esr 102.3 (full), seamonkey 2.53.14 (base), improved localisation and fixed deb archive keys.

mps-youtube has been removed since it doesn’t seem to work anymore.
Sakis3G replaces modem-manager(gui).

NOTE: elogind, libpam-elogind and libelogind0 have also been removed.
Instead we use seatd and consolekit.

Many upstream core Debian packages have been rebuilt to remove a hard dependency on libsystemd0/libelogind0
These include apt, cups, dbus, gvfs, openssh, policykit-1, procps, pulseaudio, rpcbind, rsyslog, samba, sane-backends, udisks2, util-linux, webkit2gtk and xorg-server

Those using previous versions of antiX-21 do not need to download this new version. Simply upgrade via apt or synaptic.

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

Looks like (cautiously expected) my antiX is already antiX22… No new updates on top of what I have been running already – antiX 21 runit *elogind*-free.
Unless not all updates are in repos yet…

latest firefox-esr 102.3

Just a hint to all people encountering stability issues like frequent arbitrary crashes with firefox ESR 102.3: just upgrade to most recent firefox ESR 102.4, which seems to run way more stable. It has been released yesterday only. At least for me this solved this naughty problem.

Windows is like a submarine. Open a window and serious problems will start.

It appears that the new (libelogind0-free) libbrlapi0.8 for QEMU/KVM has not been yet included in antiX22 repos…

Minor inaccuracy is that runit is default init system for antiX. Perhaps it is a good hint. It should be for antiX 22 after all…

Thank you olsztyn! Fixed. Feel free to suggest further action items.

I’m still an antiX newb so in that Wikipedia article, there may still be bits that are wrong [stale] but not as obvious [to me] as they are to others.

I have done many minor edits to that article since September 2021 and am willing to do many more in the enjoyment of my retirement.

Thank you anticapitalista for the great work on antiX 22. The folks of antiX community in Brazil is very grateful for your work.

I tested it on my workstation and it’s phenomenal. I consider the antiX “the sucessor” of the “old Debian”.
