Newbie Antix problems and questions, sessions, displays, mount and Mega sync


Hi and sorry for the newbie questions, but this newbie wants to understand and use Arch on his aging material.

I have a 2009 (?) Dell Studio laptop T6400 2gHz running Antix 15, 4Gb memory. I'm using X11, kernel 4.0.5 antix amd64. I did a sudo apt-get update and upgrade yesterday 1/15/17. I installed a few apps, Firefox, Opeshot, Audacity because I need to do some light audio and video editing. I can't find any of them on the menu.

I'm finding problems with sessions not remembering my settings, dual display, etc.

Also, I can't seem to make a permanent sda2 mount, where I put my multimedia files.

I can't seem to get my Mega sync working.

That's a tall order and I hope I'm not overloading anyone. Any help would be greatly appreciate. I'm not proficient with command prompts but willing to learn. Thanks beforehand, 33Nicolas

What are you running? Arch or AntiX? If AntiX. Run in terminal and post all the readout in code tags, The # mark on go advanced reply button toolbar

Code:
inxi -Fxz
Code:
inxi -r
If AntiX. You need to ask the mods to put this in this forum

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/mepis-64/

Because AntiX has nothing to do with Arch Linux. You have entered this thread in the wrong section of this forum.

If running Arch. Well then. Never mind my post.

Right, I don't know why I thought it was Arch. My apologies. I'm closing it and going to mepis-64

I think the AntiX Control Center has an option to edit menus.

Thanks, I was wondering what this did. It didn't show Firefox, which I installed through the Meta Package Installer. The menus didn't get updated.
