Hello all

I've just installed Salix for the first time and am very impressed. I've been using Debian for ten years, but it doesn't recognize my new box (Qotom Q190N). When I checked its hardware list it's dated 2010 - unbelievable! The current Debian 'testing' won't install either.
I therefore downloaded ten different distros, and the only ones to install correctly were Salix, MX Linux and Slackware. Puppy Linux runs fine, as does System Rescue CD, praise be! I used Slackware for a while many years ago, so decided to try Salix instead. I've now moved to LXDE and am very pleased to find a range of more unusual packages from other sites. Nedit has been my preferred editor for years, so a great relief to find it available.
I'd like to login to runlevel 3 and invoke X from the commandline. The runlevel change and login worked OK, but startx failed.
Is there documentation on how to start X from the Salix commandline and enter LXDE?
With thanks for any advice. Good to be here.
