AV Linux MX Edition 21.2.1 and MXDE-EFL 21.2.2 Released

New ISO’s of AV Linux MX Edition and MXDE-EFL. In this release, Linux for Content Creators no longer can be dismissed as a backwater niche.

Things lost:
– Openbox Window Manager is gone, replaced by native xfwm.
– Nitrogen is gone replaced by native xfdesktop.
– SLiM Login Manager is gone replaced by lightDM.
– The LXDE-based ISO build of ‘MXDE’ is gone, the classic GTK2 LXDE/Openbox is fading into oblivion.
– All 32bit ISO builds are gone, I simply don’t have the time for a use-case that has dwindled down to almost nothing..
– AVL-MXE Assistant has been broken into unbranded component utilities to be shared by AVL-MXE and MXDE-EFL.
