AVL MX Linux Installing

The multimedia content-creation focus AV Linux has provided since 2008 is now combined with the powerful versatility of MX Linux! AV Linux MX Edition (AVL-MXe) comes with a high-performance Liquorix Kernel and the beautiful and efficient Enlightenment Desktop Environment. In addition are a whole host of useful tools including the venerable ‘MX-Tools’ paired with the convenience of specialized custom utilities. This system is tuned out of the box for fast low-latency Audio performance, seamless PipeWire integration and optional support for Windows Audio and Plugin applications through Wine-Staging and yabridge. Currently AV Linux MX Edition is recognized by MX Linux and utilizes its Build tools and Packaging but is not an official MX Linux product.


It uses less than 500MB of my 8GB RAM.
I often wonder why guys and girls are worried about new Linux Versions, when the old one performs, much better than the new one.

OBS, Kdenlive, Blender and a host of Audio Players in one place.
What more one needs.

It has the best GRUB Boot Loader.

Thank YOU AVL MX Linux Distribution.

It took 16.5 GB of my 20GB partition.
No LibreOffice, Thank YOU.
It has Synaptic Package Manager.
 
I am installing Stacer and Gnome 43.
Gnome took about 450MB.

At last I got a Linux Distribution which uses Enlightenment Desktop which is not Elive.

Open AI gave wrong information. 
Yes, AI guide is often erroneous.

I fetched, it while editing my book on "Linux Essentials". 
After a bit of searching, I found, the image.

I am fed up with the Elive Linux guys and girls and I want a distribution with Enlightenment Desktop as the default.

AVL MX Linux is worth but it is the Bookworm kernel that foot the bill.

MX Linux with Trixie kernel, I tried and it failed to boot without the SystemD INIT.
 
These guys are fiddling with INIT scripts and AVL MX Linux has all the INIT scripts except SystemD.

On can choose the INIT one wishes to use.

It took hell of a lot of fiddling to get the Installer script running.
On root with root as password it mounts the old Enlightenment Desktop but no Installer.
I went back to Live Session with demo password.
In the top left hand corner Install Avl is there but it won't mount.
 
I hit the Enter key of the keyboard hard and it started to check the Iso image in preparation for the Install.
 
I have used MX Linux in the past and I knew, how it works but I did not panic.
I gave 10GB root /partition
SWAP 
And the EFI 
It said partition was small but I thought it can take 5.3GB image. 
Usually, Iso image expends when installing.
It failed, due to the lack of space.
I'll add some space and I would try it again.

I am Installing it again.
I hit my Keyboard very hard, for both Live Installer and WiFi password. 
 
It was a remote wireless keyboard.
 
I am going to enjoy Blender 4 instead of Blender 4.5.
Blender 5 is in the development stage.

One has to give 20GB for the install, if one is using one Partition.

I say, go hang with MX Linux which is SLOW to come up with its new UPDATES.

Old AVL Linux had all the Audio and Video utilities but it did not have the EFI Boot Loader but AVL MX has EFI.

I hope they would come out with a Debian 13 Trixie Kernel Distribution by December for us to use it in 2026.

AV Linux MX Linux

 AV Linux is a versatile, Debian-based distribution featuring a large collection of audio and video production software. Additionally, it also includes a custom kernel with IRQ threading enabled for low-latency audio performance. AV Linux can be run directly from a live DVD or a live USB storage device, though it can also be installed on a hard disk and used as a general-purpose operating system for everyday tasks.

Computer System in a Nutshell

Computer System in a Nutshell

Google which has only minimal of Linux Code and simple Graphic Front End and a powerful Search Engine with the Chrome Browser now dominates the world.

The three components of Google are

1. Kernel borrowed from Linux.

2. Graphical Front End.

3. Browser based powerful Search Engine.

Unlike Firefox, it does not have to waste time in development of the browser but only has to worry about the advertisement component tagged with the browser as Java Components embedded within. 

Winners with minimal contribution to the Linux Code at large.        

The core team of Google saw the potential and I do not envy them.

 

Of course, Goggle has jumped into hardware in the name of Android and the variety of cellphones.

 

Now take Apple in general.

It has Unix

It has Hardware.

It has Safari Browser.

It has applications bound to it's operating  system. 

All are closed source and one has to pay a fortune to acquire all of them. 

User becomes a prisoner even though, he  or she pays a fortune to become a prisoner. 

Any attempt to change the Code of Apple is considered to be Jail Breaking.

Microsoft Windows come to capitalize on this framework and I would not make any comments about Microsoft’s strategy except to say, if not for Linux mankind would have only two operating system to contend with.

Then comes the visionary figure but I call him a philosopher for good reason. 

He would be long remembered but the other guy who was known to have associated with Epstein would be remembered with pain and disgust. 

Richard Stallman saw what was coming and decided to put breaks in the name of Free Software in 1980s.

But he did not have a kernel to port it.

In comes Linus Torvalds with a microcode but open source in 1992.

 

Put them together a new Open World of Software was born.

පරිපාලනයට ඉන්දියානුවන් අතගැසීම

ලංකාව දැන් ඉන්දියාවේ ප්‍රාන්තයක් නිසා මට මේ ප්‍රශ්නය අසන්න පුලුවන්ද යන්න ප්‍රශ්නයකි.

විරුද්ධ පක්ෂයේ නායකයා බජට් එකට      (අය වැය, හරි පාරවර්තනයක්, නෙවෙයි) පැය 48 කලින් ඉන්දියාවට යෑම මට ප්‍රශ්නයකි.

මේක ඉන්දියාව විසින් පළමුව හින්දියෙන් ලියා, දේවනුව ඉංගිරිසියට හරවා, තුන්වෙනිව සිංහලට හරවපු නිසා, ප්‍රශ්න ගොඩක් ඇති වෙනවා.

අපට නෙවෙයි ඉන්දියාවට.

ඒ නිසා අසන ප්‍රශ්න ටික විරුද්ද පක්ෂයේ නායකට ලියල දෙන්න තමයි, එන්න කීවේ.

ඉතින් එයාට දැන් වයස නිසා ප්‍රශ්න ටික පටලවා ගන්න නිසා එයාට ඉන්දියාවේ නිගන්ට බුදුනුත් වැදලා එන්න පුළුවන්, නේද?

බජට් එක ඉන්දියානු මහ කොමසාරිස් කාර්යාලයේ තියෙන්නේ තිබුනේ.

අනේ අපට, බුදුසරණයි.
