I'm gonna put this on an old Lenovo I have laying around. Want to take it for a spin

I have, over time, reduced the number of different desktop environments to what is now available - I am getting older and cannot keep up with all the different changes. So I decided to use the two desktop environments that change the least and are more stable (IMHO).

I have discovered the Xanmod Kernel-6.1.xx LTS series that I was using does not allow virtualbox to run. It does not support the installation of virtualbox-dkms and therefore produces a vboxdrv error - so with that, I have decided to use the Debian Kernel 6.1.0-0 which works. so I am upgrading all versions of Expirion to the Debian 6.1.0-0.deb11.5-amd64 kernel, along with the headers. they all should be upgraded on 13 Mar 2023

I use to have it but no one ever downloaded after 8500 downloads it so I got rid of it

 

[wizardfromoz]

I use to have it

Yeah, I thought so.

I added SHA-256 to the readme file - https://sourceforge.net/projects/expirion-linux/files/ - you can scroll down to the bottom and they are there - now I just have to remember to update it whenever I update the ISO's -

Changed the SHA1 or MD5 just click the "i" with the circle around it and that will display it

[Deleted member 108694]

Latest upgrade to Expirion 12 is 16 June 2023 - No more upgrades to 11 I have removed those from my site; Expirion-11-Devuan will be there until there is Devuan 5 then hopefully upgrade that as well - Think I am done upgrading for a while - Cheers
