[SOLVED] The ‘Space’ option for desktops not showing up! :(

[Member Mynaardt]

Hello again, All!

I just installed antiX-21 on an older Lenovo refurbished laptop.

I used the same USB stick that I used to install antiX-21 on my Samsung N150 netbook.

But for some strange reason, there’s no Space desktop options available on my Lenovo’s install.
Although the Space desktop options show up just fine on my Samsung install.
Everything else appears to be working just fine, though.

Any suggestions on how to fix that? I just like the Space options so I can use the
desktop items for running a few of my own custom-made icons and bash scripts.

Here’s a copy of the inxi output if that has any clues:

spacefm has been replaced by zzzfm

Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

SpaceFM has old buggy code.
The source code from SpaceFM was updated and fixed, and the developer(s) named it zzzFM.

spacefm package will install [[[or re-install]]] just fine if that’s what you want, and I could find just one open bug remaining https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=spacefm

Hi guys (anticapitalista, Brian M and iznit):

Well, that explains that, then! I was wondering where that zzz thing came from. I just assumed that was something in addition to Space.

That’s what I get for not paying attention to things, I reckon!

Thanks for letting me know, though!
