I am new to antiX. I have an old system. I have installed antix of late. Everything is fine and I love the OS. But since I have installed the antiX OS, my PC is freezing frequently. I did not face this problem when I had Bodhi installed just before a few days.
The programs that I frequently use are the Firefox [This is slow to respond. The pages do not move up and down smoothly. I had this issue with other OSs too. However I compensate this with the use of other low resource brwosers], dillo, Netsurf browsers. I have installed Master PDF editor, which works fine, which I use very much along with the LibreOfiice writer. Thats it.
I did the smxi thing successfully. I followed the no change policy. I did the sgfxi thing. Everything worked out fine.
I read on another thread about this freezing issue, which has not been solved. I wish to try my luck, because every computer is different.
I checked the RAM stick, it is fine. I carried out the memory test.There were no errors.
Do I have to revert back to older Kernel as suggested by SamK in the other thread? Please guide. I don't know how to do it, if it is necessary to be done. Can I install it from the meta installer? Is that all I have to do? Or may I have to make some configuration changes? If so please guide me through.
Following is the output of"inxi -F". [Which I found was demnded from the other member.]
