I've been messing around with antiX M11 for the past few days now. I've managed to install it to an older computer for a friend's parent - complete with GIMP and a usb authorization issue fixed (I just switched everything back to ROX).
I liked working with it so much that I decided to replace my Fedora OS and dualboot antiX in its place. Things have been going well so far, although I have a few minor questions:
1.) I read here (

url was:"antix.freeforu ms.org/conky-and-the-battery-t661.html#p3603"

====================================
) that someone installed acpitool and added a few lines in Conky in order to have a battery icon displayed - I assume this means I can't just open it up and edit it with Abiword through the terminal like the sources.list? I'm currently using the testing repos there, as well, if that helps any. Regardless, I tried to
Code: Select all
apt-get install acpitool- dpkg: error processing firmware-b43legacy-installer (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Setting up acpitool (0.5.1-2) ...
configured to not write apport reports
Errors were encountered while processing:
firmware-b43legacy-installer
2.) How can I (if at all) rememdy this firmware-b43-legacy-installer error? I assume it's some sort of hardware compatability issue. Should I just apt-remove the package, or would that be a terrible idea?
Thanks in advance for your (theoretical) help. antiX is a step up for me as all of my Linux experience thus far has been with Fedora, Ubunutu, and T(a)ILS - this is the most terminal work I think I've ever managed to do...
P.S.: I did
