Re: Display problems after installation

You need to remove all the conflicting repositories first as you have used the "qrepoadd" command. Run in terminal:
$ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
$ sudo qreporm q4os-mxtools
$ qrepolist
and post back the output.

Re: Display problems after installation

After the installation of mx-tools plasma, I can boot from Q4os Andromeda
But then I see the debian log screen and I am in  the debian system. What I must do next?

By the way how is the shortcut for shutdown or reeboot in debian?

Re: Display problems after installation

You need to remove mx-tools repository from /etc/apt/soutces.list.d/ , then you install from the .qsi again.
Now run:
$ ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
and post back the output.

Re: Display problems after installation

If you would want to stay true to Q4OS, we can recommend installing Quarkos https://quark-os.sourceforge.io/ , as it is based on Ubuntu, just like Zorin. In anyway, good luck
