No run of Porteus on Acer Aspire 1353XV
Posted: 02 Apr 2020, 10:39
Help, someone! I have tried all the available versions of Porteus on my Acer Aspire 1353XV, which is currently running Windows 7 as an experiment, and happily runs Puppy. No joy. Boot was from CDs, which is all that the computer will allow. I was wanting MATE edition, or perhaps LXDE. MATE gives me a desktop, but the screen flashes, presumably refreshing, once every two seconds
or so, and the menu button refuses to install on the toolbar; there is no mouse cursor visible. LXDE gives me the wallpaper and a trash icon, and nothing else. OpenBox gave me a desktop, but none of the menu buttons work, and nothing shown in the right click run menu will open, either. Any ideas?
