We are pleased to offer MX-19.2. for your use.
MX-19.2 is the second refresh of our MX-19 release, consisting of bugfixes and application updates since our original release of MX-19. If you are already running MX-19, there is no need to reinstall. Packages are all available thru the regular update channel.
Migration notes are here: https://mxlinux.org/migration
The standard MX-19.2 releases (32 bit and 64 bit) feature the latest debian 4.19 kernel and unlike in the past the kernel will now auto-update along with debian sources by default.
The AHS (Advanced Hardware Support) iso features a debian 5.6 kernel, mesa 20, as well as a new updated firmware package.
As usual, this release includes the latest updates from debian 10.4 (buster) and MX repos.
Xfce 4.14
GIMP 2.10.12
MESA 18.3.6 (20.0.7 ahs)
updated firmware
Latest debian 4.19 kernel (5.6 ahs)
Browser: Firefox 76
Video Player: VLC 3.0.10
Music Manager/Player: Clementine 1.3.1
Email client: Thunderbird 68.6.1
Office suite: LibreOffice 6.1.5 (plus security fixes) (6.4 available in MX-Packageinstaller->Popular Apps)
and more in the MX repositories.
–New and updated mx-apps since 19.1. Highlights include:
mx-installer (based on gazelle-installer) – new – -oem commandline switch for OEM style installations. When you specify – -oem, user accounts will be set up on the first reboot rather than during install. This feature is a little experimental right now but you can specify it from the commandline. (minstall-pkexec – -oem). There is also a new “live-log” tab in the gui so you can see the background commands being run real time.
mx-packageinstaller – new confirmation dialogs added to installs and removal operations for both apt and flatpak installations.
conky-manager – updated so that conky configs can be saved on a per Desktop Environment/Window Manager basis. You can have a different conky on fluxbox than you have on Xfce, no muss, no fuss.
mx-conky-data: our collection of pre-built conky configurations received a ton of bug fixes and enhancements.
MX-Fluxbox – MXFB got a whole ton of updates, including localized default menus, updated art work, new vertical launcher bar, updated docs, and a new mx tool to manage the idesk desktop settings.
Many mx-apps received translation updates (we love translators)
Known issues with MX 19.2 final:
Some users with intel video chipsets may need to use “i915.invert_brightness=1” boot code as some machines apparently have brightness values backwards in the driver. There are options in the various live boot menus for this.
Any specific bugs can go to our Bug Manager at bugs.mxlinux.org
If posting hardware issues, please post the output of “quick-system-info” from the menu (now in the default favorites!) or terminal, at a minimum.
If posting nvidia-installer issues, please post the contents of /var/log/ddm.log.
If posting remaster issues, please include the contents of /var/log/live/live-remaster.log
If posting installer issues, please include the contents of /var/log/minstall.log
If posting issues with MX-PackageInstaller “Popular Apps”, please post contents of /var/log/mxpi.log or /var/log/mxpi.log.old (whichever contains the log of your issue).
Thank you to all the contributors, supporters, and enthusiasts. MX-19 is for you.
Thank you!

My MX-19.2_386 patito feo October 21, 2019 (arq. /etc/mx-version) ok
Hello! Please tell me how to enable reading mode/remove the blue spectrum of the screen? Thanks!
I look forward to the release of MX KDE
Ho installato Mx 19 (Patito Feo) con dual boot sul mio laptop Acer, dove era presente Windows 7 Professional, sperando in un incremento delle prestazioni che in realtà non c’è stato. Cronometro alla mano il tempo di avvio di Mx è di 1 minuto e 28 secondi, quello di Windows 7 è di 1 minuto e 30 secondi. Anche usato solo come browser per internet con Firefox non ho visto miglioramenti.
Sicuramente ho apprezzato la facilità di installazione e i pacchetti già presenti e la configurazione della stampante in rete multimediale HP Envy
Ma come è possibile che nel complesso sia così lento?
Il PC è un Acer 5738ZG con
Intel Pentium Dual Core Processor T4200 2.0 GHz, 800MHz FSB, 1MB L2 cache
Schermo 15,6″ Acer CineCrystal LED LCD
Scheda Video 1791 MB NVIDIA Geoforce G105 TurboCache
RAM 4GB DDR3
250 GB HDD
Acer Nphfy 802.1b/g/Draft-N WLAN
Grazie per qualsiasi considerazione.
Congratulation team MX for the new release!!
Gracias, sigue adelante el patito para convertirse ¡en un bello cisne!
woot woot
When I ran updates, there is no indication that the kernel is upgrading over the shipped version (from 11/11/19). Are we just supposed to use MX Package Installer and select the Debian 5.4 kernel if we want to upgrade to the newest LTS kernel?
see the migration notes (https://mxlinux.org/migration). there are a couple of items that do not auto-update. the kernel is one.
Thank you.
I have MX 19.1 Can I ugrade? Pl help.. Thanks
updates are automatic. see the migration notes (https://mxlinux.org/migration). there are a couple of items that do not auto-update. the kernel is one.
Hello hari,
I was able to upgrade from 19.1 to 19.2 without any issues.
Congratulations my team 🙂 Well done and thankyou!!! If you keep going like this, you can even reach the moon 😀
Excellent news!
MX will now become my primary OS
Congratulations to the dev. team!
Great
Dear MX team,
For me MX linux is the best option when it comes to remastering.
I tried *several* distros and I did not find anyone having the same comfort an ease to remaster.
Also running (remastered, customized) ISO in RAM opens the door to a bunch of use cases.
( rescue, testing new things/softwares/desktops with easy fallback by reboot, online banking having no traces on PC after reboot, lightweight iso having only 1 environment for 1 specific task, … )
I started to run in RAM and found it quite stable. My plan was to use it as temporary solution for a few weeks. Now with the arrival of 19.2 I noticed that it is already a long period since my start in MX17, so this is a few years now i stick to this “temporary” solution.
Now the release of AHS has better support for the macbook I also started to use.
Also for me, MX is the primary OS and I was able to convince some friends and colleagues to make use of.
Brillant.
Thanks.
Congratulation for the new release, it’s awesome as always Thanks!
requirements?
Super
Hi guys,
What is the md5 or sha256 sums?
(Excuse my bad English).
https://mxlinux.org/wiki/system/iso-download-mirrors/
the AHS version would be more compatible with more diversity of hardware than the normal (stable) version ?
I imagine support for Ryzen 7 3700x would be better in a 5 series kernel than stock 4.19 kernel.
Also the 5 series kernels perform better better than 4.19(flatus velocitas 🙂 )……………. actually I’m going to install MXLinux at the weekend…
Super 🙂
Jetzt läuft Bluetooth auf meinem neuen Notebook
Bei mir auch.
alles super
Can i upgrade from MX AHS 19.1 to MX AHS 19.2 . what is the procedure.
https://mxlinux.org/migration/

There is no date set yet, but typically the releases are near the end of the year.
Awesome, upgrade process is sweet
Sorry, i have looked but i can’t find the live passwords ?

TY
I already tried 8 or 10 times to install the MX-19.2 and grub does not work, at startup it is always on the command line (grub>) I install ubuntu or mint everything is fine with MX I still couldn’t get it, I never formatted the home.
Brillant.
Thanks.

ooo my name is Joseph and am in Uganda perhaps you can send me any help via email: [email protected]
please guys i need help ASAP
Thanks
kind regards
Obrigado pelo projecto. MX linux 19.2 (xfce) está muito bom.
Estou a adorar trabalhar com ele. No entanto, gostaria de chamar atenção, para uma futura revisão. A protecção de ecrã quando activada e a suspensão do pc ocorre, por exemplo, quando a tampa do portátil é fechada. Ao reinicializar o sistema, este simplesmente abri e bloqueia completamente.
kde is broke on my dell latitude E6230 I can not see the menu, task bar
or wallpaper. I have tried apt –fix-missing and resetting everything to default
in kde system settings but to no avail, nothing works
I was very pleasantly surprised, after 15 years with Linux you managed to bring me back to Debian again.
Well done guys and girls I can’t believe how stable your distribution is on a laptop that should have been in the trash a long time ago (Acer D257 / 2g ram)
Congratulations!!!
