antiX (/ˈæntɪks/) is a Linux distribution, originally based on MEPIS, which itself is based on the Debian stable distribution.[4] antiX initially replaced the MEPIS KDE desktop environment with the Fluxbox and IceWM window managers, making it suitable for older, less powerful x86-based systems. Unlike Debian, antiX does not use the systemd init system; instead, it provides images in which either SysVinit or Runit are set as the default init system.[5]

Features

[edit]
AntiX 23.1 using IceWM

The distribution is lightweight and designed for older PCs, including a 'Legacy' 5.10 kernel for older computers and a 'Modern' 6.1 kernel which provides better hardware support for more recent PCs.[1] It has a large app selection from both Debian and antiX repositories,[6] and does not use systemd or elogind.

  • Starting with version 19, antiX offers sysVinit and runit as a choice for the init system.
  • Starting with version 22, antiX is offered elogind-free for both 32-bit and 64-bit architecture.[7]
  • Starting with version 23.1, antiX has new apps: antiX TV, antiX Radio, Finder, antiX SAMBA manager, and several others.[8]
  • Starting with version 23.2, antiX Full comes with two kernels: Legacy 5.10 and Modern 6.1.[1]

antiX has extensive support for "live CD" and "live USB" modes, booting quickly and running independently of the system's disk.[9]

Window managers

[edit]

antiX comes with a default desktop built on top of the ROX or Zzzfm file managers, with the GTK library and using IceWM as the window manager.[10] antiX-full and antiX-base include these stacking window managers:

  • Lightweight: Rox-IceWM (default), IceWM and ZzzFM-IceWM
  • Minimalist: Rox-Fluxbox, Fluxbox and ZzzFM-Fluxbox
  • Very minimalist: Rox-JWM, JWM[11] and ZzzFM-JWM

Running the ROX or Zzzfm variants provides desktop icons and a drag-and-drop function. Conky provides system monitor availability.

Versions

[edit]

antiX is available for IA-32 (32-bit) and x86-64 (64-bit) architectures, and comes in four versions:[12][8] antiX 26 comes with 4 modern init systems (runit, dinit, s6-rc and s6-66) as well as sysVinit.[13]

  • Full, Includes X, four window managers, LibreOffice suite, and a 'Package Installer' which allows installation of a full range of applications (1.7 GB)
  • Base, Includes X, 4 window managers, & a 'Package Installer' which allows the user to choose their own application suite (1 GB). Available in antiX 23 and older.[13]
  • Core, No X, command-line installer without encryption, enables the user to have total control over the install (520 MB) antiX-core will now need a wired connection for Internet access.[13]
  • net, No X, command-line installer without encryption, enables the user to have total control, no desktop environment by default (220 MB). Available in antiX 23 and older.[13]

These four antiX versions were joined by MEPIS in 2014, developed in cooperation with the MEPIS community to form MX Linux.[14] MX Linux uses Xfce as the default desktop environment,[15] is based directly on Debian Stable, and gives solid performance from a medium-sized footprint. Since November 2016, MX Linux is listed as a separate distro on DistroWatch.[16]
