@eclecticpassions @joel I’m planning to install #antix on an old MacBook as well. Gave a few distros a live version try. Antix for me the clear winnner. #MXlinux #fluxbox was a distant 2nd

I'm still amazed by the power / speed yet paradoxical simplicity of FluxBox

I've seen many Window and Desktop Managers in the past decades.
For as far as I remember; this is the only Window manager FluxBox, which enables multiple monitor background choosing in the login requester screens out of the box, I repeat OUT OF THE BOX

I run all versions of MX Linux here. Xfce KDE & the other version.

I can tell you that a tremendous amount of work has been done to make it work smoothly without systemD.

The small errors I get are never ever in the realm of systemD

They're always somewhere else where I can troubleshoot and fix

I've easily & smoothly configured KDE Konnect to work in Fluxbox WM

Since this command...

`xfce4-screenshooter -S -d 2 --window -s "$HOME/Pictures/$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S)_Screenshot2.png"`

...segfaults in fluxbox atm I did not bother with a screenshot, because xfce4-screenshooter rocks way too much to use another one

At this moment I'm roughly tuning a very nice FluxBox Desktop in an OpenSource POSIX driven OS.
I'm working on tuning my Desktops Environments in such a way that it doesn't matter whether I run them in Linux or *BSD

That way I'll just fire up the Operating System inject my own configuration for the desktop environment fire up X.org and then start working

FluxBox has been a favorite window / desktop manager of mine a couple of decades ago.

Since it has been written efficient it's blazingly fast
I combine tools that I love from Xfce with FluxBox so that my muscle memory for shortcuts can be used in a super smooth manner

@RadioAzureus

I would check cables if obvious errors are meant

Now I have YAT (yet another toy) to play with on all platforms I dwell upon. Love KDE Connect features.

In fact I played with it for a few hours yesterday.

The background on that particular desktop is a photograph that I've taken myself years back {landscape nature}.

I'm a seasoned photographer using DSLR cameras

There was another copy of that screenshot which had an interesting background also, that I removed. In the Mastodon client I was running on that Android, sensitive flag was not found

@Tionisla @daltux @muthuraj5107220 @leo @Twitom

The fact that thorugh KDE_Connect the Androids talk with eachother smoothly has given me nice control surfaces over them. KDE_Connect is still a succes here, so I'm quite pleased.

Followed the gsconnect route as adviced (KDEConnect page),
installed kdeC afterwards, to use the gsconnect plugin
Installed both are massive, but good handshake results were the mission.

However no Android devices are detected, none of my four Androids are seen.

I'm unistalling gsconnect and kde connect as I type

Its now on schedule too. The page is also bookmarked. I usually hunt and dig in
```
man kdeconnect
```
then use the fixes in there

Thank you.
