      I recently installed antiX ‘full’ on a 32-bit INTEL PC that has MX Linus installed, so now I can dual boot to either MX or antiX .
      My wireless works when I boot MX, but doesn’t work when I boot antiX . Dont understand why it works with MX and not antiX …Plz help

          how about posting the output of

          inxi -F

          for both installs.

          FWIW, there are a lot of differences between MX and antiX, not the least of which is the kernel and the wireless configuration tool utilized.

          I assume you have set up your wireless in the connman configuration? (control center->network)

            I’m new to antiX and clueless on how I eventually got connman to connect to my WiFi AP (access point)

            Is this the correct way to connect to a WiFi AP ???….
            Control Center > Network > Connman then highlight the AP you wish to connect to > tab, Connect and fill in ‘passphrase’ box

            I tried this several times, but these WiFi icon in the tray (lower right of screen) never showed I was connected; so I kept fooling around, randomly trying different things, then eventually noticed I was connected

            … I then launched Mozilla, log-on to antiX Forum and wrote this note

            My question : Is there an antiX online doc that details how to connect to WiFi ??
