AntiX 22 - Conclusion
Unfortunately, that's all the exploration I'm going to do. The highest praise I can think of for AntiX is "primitive." We're talking about character graphics, no useful settings dialog that I can find, the Screen settings simply tell you to use ArandR to change resolution, but when I try to use that, -s is not a valid operation, and --help tells me next to nothing. On xrander, -s is, but the 1920x1080 resolution isn't available there.
It claims to be able to locate shares on the network, and it locates my NAS, which it identifies only as an nfs server at 192.168.1.42, which is its correct IP address. Then it claims to find no shares available there. I know better.
If the idea is to create a tiny Linux installation, then AntiX is definitely a contender. But that means that there's a whole lot that's been left out.
There doesn't seem to be much I can do with this distro. If this were 1990 and there weren't 200+ other Linux distros out there, maybe I'd feel differently, but I just don't need AntiX today. Moving on!
