extrox Known Bugs
1. at Ver2.0_RC1, Default wallpaper not set in few PC environment. caused by debian trixie's wallpaper settings, it's hard to set different wallpaper. So this bug fix will MX-25 Product version based extrox 2.0 Product version. Please set default wallpaper "default25.png" manually, Sorry for inconvenience.
2. Compiz Fails When exit fullscreen at movie playing - Movie playback in full-screen (also .mp4 etc) at VLC or other Movie Player, when exit VLC or other Movie Player, Window Manager Compiz going force quit. Unfortunately this Compiz bug can not fix by Freja side, I wish Compiz Dev team fix this bug in the future...
and so, SMplayer is very good player I think but, to Maximize movie playback performance needs set CPU core numbers at Preference's "performance" section manually. CPU core numbers are different by users machines, so I gave up SMplayer. In other words, If you can know your machine's CPU numbers in neofetch or other method and can set CPU core numbers to SMplayer's Preferences, I recommends SMplayer for you. So smpayer can install easily from right side of dock "MX Package Installer". note: Selection of Hardware decoding method is very important in local movie playback, If you're using Intel CPU, select "xv (0 - Intel(R) Textured Video)". If you're using nVIDIA GeForce, select "vdpau". If you want to want to restart Compiz, run this command from terminal - "compiz --replace". or logout and log back in.
3. Compiz Fails When Doing "Alt+Tab" (Application Switcher) - This Bug fixed in extrox ver1.14.1. I'll disable Application Switcher function. Please use Bottom Docklite instead of Application Switcher. MX-23 based extrox users can fix this bug manually, so Press Windows button (whisker menus), type "ccsm" to launch ccsm, scroll to bottom, uncheck checkbox "Application Switcher" and close ccsm, done.
Its provided as "operating environment" for audio filters "Orange Juice" series that allow you to enjoy music to the fullest.
(! extrox ver 1.12 or ver2.0.0 and later available)
You can touch to sound, and you can visible sound.
Upgrade quality of all music in the world, wow!
Endorse of Sound Quality - Freja's grandfather is Japanese traditional musical instrument "Tsugaru-Syamisen" Famous Player Chikuzan Takahashi's Music Producer "Sadaki Satou". He was contacted with CBS Sony (Chikuzan's CD published from CBS Sony) wikipedia Please use Sony's MDR-7506 with Orange Juice!
Ideal User Interface and AV feature pursuit by Freja thinks
That is a combination of XFCE and Compiz. Upper Right Corner's Gathering mode, Dock-lite design, Modern Themes. Keep It Simple and Smart style he thinks.
extrox focus on Audio(Enhancer) and Visual (Freja Original Artworks). System AS-IS MX Linux, extrox protects MX theory.
Statement of about political ideology at extrox
The main orange accent color of extrox I produce, but this has nothing to do with the orange color of the far-right Japanese political party "Party of Do It Yourself." extrox does not include any political ideology.
The origin of this color comes from the fact that my car is orange, the walls of Bell Labs were apparently orange, and the color of traffic signs are orange.
extrox is constructed from my memories of past lives and images of future society, (This is not scientifically recognized.) and is imbued with my determination to live in this place and time.
