Due to rapid changes in sid, I have created a new sid repo for antiX.
At the moment it only has the latest systemd free xserver-* debs.
Users should also install xserver-xorg-legacy otherwise your systemd may not login to X.

Keep the antiX testing repo enabled.

GOOD NEWS: The new antiX sid repos definitely keeps my desktop systemd-free.

BAD NEWS: I no longer have pulseaudio! This is really bad because I can not get any sound from Firefox, Palemoon, or Chronium without it. ALSA by itself only works with Chronium. OSS4 doesn't work with any of the browsers at all, at least not on my old desktop.

Looks like I will be doing another fresh re-installment of antiX tonight.

Have you tried setting a default sound card in the control center?

Yes and it didn't work like before.

If I'm correct, pulse audio depends on systemd.

I'm using Alsa in Stable: alsa-base, alsa-tools, and alsa-utils

These are my keybindings in IceWM:

Code: Select all

 #Sound
key"Ctrl+Down"      aumix -v -5             # lower volume
key"Ctrl+Up"    aumix -v +5             # raise volume

Works fine

In JWM:

#Volume
<Key mask="C" key="Down">>exec:amixer set Master 9%- </Key>
<Key mask="C" key="Up">exec:amixer set Master 9%+ </Key>
<Key mask="C" key="0">exec:amixer sset Master,0 toggle </Key>

Except the version in antiX has removed the systemd/libsystemd0 dependency. That is why we have the nosystemd repo
