As usual, multiple tweaks, fixes, and updated packages are also present.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Available since March 2012, MX Linux is one of the many Debian-based distros currently active. It focuses on desktop users and uses core antiX components alongside additional software from the MX community, such as the roughly 40 user-oriented pieces of code known as MX Tools. The latest update is labeled 25.2 and comes with Mesa 26.0.1 for the Xfce and KDE Advanced Hardware Support (AHS) versions. A Fluxbox flavor is also available.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">According to the official release notes, the Xfce-AHS version is the only one that received the low-latency Liquorix 7.0.9 kernel, even though both AHS versions mentioned above include Mesa 26.0.1. What unites all versions is the inclusion of Debian 13.5 &#8220;Trixie&#8221; updates alongside the latest MX repository refresh, which includes patches for all the recent &#8220;meme bugs&#8221; found in the kernel. However, some components received special attention this time:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The list of antiX live systems updates includes the return of semi-automatic persistence saving to sysVinit live boots, as well as several minor tweaks and changes.<\/li>\n<li>In addition to translation updates, the MX Installer got several bug fixes, a new text-based mode, and native systemd units for oobe\/oem mode (useful for the Raspberry Pi spin, which is making its comeback with this update as well).<\/li>\n<li>Updates to mx-ease-themes and a few new wallpapers.<\/li>\n<li>Multiple mx-tool updates.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">As usual, existing users don&#8217;t need to reinstall the system unless they really want to do that for some reason. The updates come through the regular update channel, and the new options uc-tool-mx package utilized by live-kernel-updater can be found in the standard repository.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">The Xfce&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/MX-Linux-25-2-now-available-with-plenty-of-fixes-and-package-updates.1306130.0.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MX Linux 25.2 now available with plenty of fixes and package updates https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/MX-Linux-25-2-now-available-with-plenty-of-fixes-and-package-updates.1306130.0.html Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":256226,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/fileadmin\/Notebooks\/News\/_nc5\/MX-Linux-25.2-Infinity-virtual-software-box_Notebookcheck_QuillBot-generated.png","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[91,71],"class_list":["post-256225","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-linux","tag-debian","tag-linux"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256225"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=256225"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256225\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":256227,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256225\/revisions\/256227"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/256226"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=256225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=256225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=256225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
