I had to replace version 191230 today after I discovered that Samba client was misconfigured. Now you can use Deepin File Manager and connect to your Windows computers in your Home Network. Watch this screenshot.

NEWS 191230 ABOUT ExTiX Deepin
I’ve released a new version of ExTiX Deepin today (191230). This ExTiX Build is based on Deepin 15.11 released by Deepin Technology 190719.

NEW FUNCTIONS etc
1.You can run ExTiX from RAM. Use boot alternative 3 (load to RAM) or Advanced. A wonderful way to run Linux if you have enough RAM. Everything will be super fast. When ExTiX has booted up you can remove the DVD or USB stick.
2. You will have the opportunity to choose language before you enter the Deepin 15.11 Desktop. All main languages are supported.
3. I have replaced Deepin Installer with the Reborn version of Deepin Installer. Works better in every way.
4. I have replaced kernel 5.3.0-rc6-exton with kernel 5.5.0-rc3-exton.
5. Spotify and Skype are pre-installed.
6. You can watch Netflix while running Firefox.
7. You can install ExTiX Deepin also in VirtualBox/VMware using Deepin Installer. (In previous versions you had to “chroot” into the install partition and install Grub).
8. While installing ExTiX Deepin to a USB stick using Rufus 3.8 you can create a persistent partition on the stick. Thus all your changes of the ExTiX Deepin system will be saved directly on the stick!
UNIQUE
I may add that there is no other live version of Deepin 15.11.

Leave a comment

NEWS about ArchEX 191223
A new version of ArchEX is ready! In this new version, which I call ArchEX 2020, I have added the Deepin 15.11 (latest) Desktop environment. Deepin (made in China!) is devoted to providing a beautiful, easy to use, safe and reliable system for global users. I came to like Deepin very much when I installed it in ExTiX 19.8 . So I thought why not install Deepin also in ArchEX?

Study all installed packages in ArchEX 2020 Deepin/LXQt.

Why trust a Chinese Distribution?

NEWS 191223 about Calamares Installer
I’ve finally managed to make Calamares 3.2.17-3 (The universal installer framework) work without big problems/issues. Calamares 3.2.17 is quite new. Released November 28, 2019. This version gives you more control over the installation process. Now you can use Calamares to install ArchEX in any language.

How To dual boot, triple boot or multi boot Linux with Windows in a simple way and be happy
Before installing ArchEX or any other Linux system my general installation instructions may be of interest.

WHAT IS ArchEX?
ArchEX 64 bit is a new (191223) Linux live DVD based on Arch Linux. Arch motto is KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). ArchEX uses kernel 5.4.6-arch1-1, Deepin 15.11 and LXQt 0.14.1 Desktop environments. Deepin 15.11 Desktop (made in China!) is devoted to providing a beautiful, easy to use, safe and reliable system for global users. About LXQt 0.14.1: LXQt is a lightweight Qt desktop environment. It will not get in your way. It will not hang or slow down your system. It is focused on being a classic desktop with a modern look and feel.

INSTALLED SOFTWARE
Among many other programs, Firefox 71.0-1 (for Netflix), Gimp, Spotify, GCC, Wicd and GParted – study this package LIST.
