Good news! I have the live image boot up. It looks like the same as xfce4 on regular X11.

How can I know if XLibre is installed and being used? xorg-server seems to be installed from world repos.

Check with: pacman -Q | grep xlibre

And with xdpyinfo | head -4

In general, yes. Pls check https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Site/XlibreOnArtix for more info.
Beware xlibre is still in an experimental stage, so only try this on a spare machine or a vm.

pardon my ignorance.  What is the issue?

Got it up & running...

Smooth and responsive. Haven't seen any issues/recessions so far. Think it's the right direction for Artix to move onto XLibre in the future.

Good job, Artix Dev!

I rsync'ed the ISO from the weekly repository instead of testing, apologies. The correct one is now in place.

I've tried the dinit MATE XLibre  iso on two laptops, a desktop, and in VirtualBox.

On an HP Probook with AMD Radeon r6 graphics, it worked with no problems.

In VirtualBox, on a Lenovo ThinkPad with Intel 3rd gen. graphics, and on a Dell Optiplex desktop with an AMD Bonaire FirePro W5100 video card, it stopped with a blank screen with a cursor in the upper left corner.
