I'm using m8 full on my desktop and laptop. I just formatted a second hdd in my desktop. I plan on installing m8 base and creating an lxde spin-off.

Let me know when you have something worth poking at, and I will be glad to give it a look!
Cool, John. I'll be interested to see what you come up with. To me, LXDE looks promising, but the number of integrators that do good stuff with it so far seem limited. But after seeing what you've previously done with IceWM, I can't wait to see what you come up with for LXDE.OU812 wrote:I'm using m8 full on my desktop and laptop.

Finished up downloading and installing Anti 8 today. This install is on IBM T23 running dualboot with Xubuntu 8.10. I still run Anti 7.5 on the Amrel RT 686 Laptop also.
I have most everything working in Anti 8 except for DVD play and Battery Monitoring in Conky. Will work on that later. Figured I got enough done today. One step at a time for me.
EDIT: Edited Conky and Battery Meter is now working as it should. Thanks to john I have installed libdvdcss2 and win32 codecs to get gxine going. Smooth sailing as always with Debian and AntiX. Happy Trails.

I've got the bottom half (at least) covered somewhere, and I have CDs for all of these releases and many test builds prior to their final releases (and I have CDs or DVDs for every SimplyMEPIS release going back to May 2003 as well).

Shouldn't this be updated to include the latest versions?

I started with 7.5, then 8, 8.2 and now using 8.5.
Love the heroes, am in awe of what they did.
Am trying to learn antix-core, build it up to what I can understand, love a challenge. Definitely will need some hand-holding, haven't done linux cli stuff since 1999, very much an amateur.

Thanks for adding the latest releases, anti and for all your work and dedication.
(I didn't vote because of having an unusual situation.
EDIT: The description of which I just removed from this post, as I realized it was probably out-of-place in this thread. Sorry.)

I have not yet installed"Core"; I just have not had much time to give it a fair inspection, but I have downloaded it. I have been exercising both the base and full versions of the latest release, and they have been great. I usually use IceWM with them, but on one system, the base, I've also installed KDE, XFCE, LXDE, and fvwm-crystal. I see why Eriefisher likes XFCE; the antiX implementation is really lively and responsive. But for those of you who want a newer version of KDE than what you get in SimplyMEPIS, using the smxi tool to install KDE gives you a great experience and it's really easy to install with smxi.
