Re: XLibre ISO media released for testing Reply #1 – 19 June 2025, 02:52:00 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. Last Edit: 19 June 2025, 03:35:09 by calvinh

Re: XLibre ISO media released for testing Reply #11 – 20 June 2025, 19:38:02 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! Last Edit: 20 June 2025, 19:45:29 by calvinh 4 Likes
Re: XLibre ISO media released for testing Reply #12 – 20 June 2025, 21:37:47 I rsync'ed the ISO from the weekly repository instead of testing, apologies. The correct one is now in place. 2 Likes
Re: XLibre ISO media released for testing Reply #14 – 21 June 2025, 17:25:04 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.
