I have just installed AntiX 23.1 on my 10 year old MSI Windbox with 11 year old tech (4GB ram, Celeron 1037, 1TB ssd) and it runs AntiX very fast. Also x265 video plays perfectly well: no framedrops at all! Only RU-vid loads very slow, but videos play flawlessly at 1080p
Tq for the v.informative Video. AntiX is certainly an excellent distro but it's V.V.V.'busy' in terms of apps and settings etc. and why there isn't a 'search' field on the 'Start' menu bewilders me. II downloaded an icon pack for it, but got lost in all the apps/settings options. Cant install them right now :(
You're welcome. Click on the start menu and go to the top and click on App Select. It brings up a search menu. I did it several times in the video. It's not as good as the search menu in other desktop environments, but it works.
This's the same installer MX Linux uses. It always seems to pause at 97%. My personal feeling about antiX is the absence of systemd. For some that's a plus.
Conky shows you're using 1.49 GB of ram or is it showing your disk space? If it's showing 1.49 GB of ram, that's really high for Antix. Something is wrong. In Virt-Manager, Virtual Box, and VM Ware, you can increase your ram in the settings, but you have to shut your VM off. You can't do it if the VM is running. As far as I know, you can't increase your disk space. You can add another disk, but it's complicated and you have to know how to do it. Antix should be using approximately 9 GB of disk space and about 300 MB of ram.
It should work okay. You need to determined if your computer is 32 or 64 bit, download the correct iso, and make a live usb thumb drive. Your computer may not have usb ports. You might have to burn it to a cd. It will work with 32 bit, but some apps may not work.
That's interesting, I have it. Open the software centre and go to the V section. The virtualization section is under the video section. I just went into my Antix system and it's still there.
That is strange. I just did a new install and updated it. Virtualization is there. Did you install 32 or 64 bit? What init system did you install? I don't know why it's not there for you.
