      Hi everybody. First things first, sorry about my english, not my first language. And now for a big thanks to all antiX developers and help community. I’ve got a rather low-end netbook (Celeron N3350, 4GB RAM), and I’ve been looking for a low resources consuming distro, so I’ve been giving a bunch of distros a try. Long story short, after a while trying MX Linux seemed to fit me, but anyway it consumed about 380 Mb RAM at startup, and, being antiX, it seems, more than related and even lighter, I gave it a try as well. And oh my, 150-160 Mb RAM, all my hardware (touchpad, wifi and so on) working out of the box, sooo quick startup for system and apps… Well, is working just great for me. Not so easy as MX Linux in certain aspects, but its minimalist approach kind of fits me, and being no power user at all, is just fine to keep learning about the GNU/Linux ecosystem.

      So now I’ve got antiX installed for daily use. I found some troubles which I somewhat could solve (thank you, internet!), tweaked things a bit, all seems fine by now. Some minor questions still arise, but I will post that in the (I hope!) right place.

      Just another thing, being newbie and all. I had a problem related, it seems, with something about the Intel video driver, which caused Chrome/Chromium (tried both) to flicker when scrolling. Would it be useful if I post the solution, just in case?

      So, again, thank you all and godspeed.

            Hi wolfen, welcome aboard.

            For sure, maybe post in tips and tricks.
