You Can Run ExTiX Linux with LXQt 0.10.0 and Kernel 4.8 on Intel Compute Stick

ExTiX Build 161119 is the new version of the Linux-based operating system, powered by the latest Linux 4.8 kernel and using the lightweight LXQt 0.10.0 desktop environment as default graphical interface. However, the most important change in this release is that it ships with a kernel engineered to support the Intel Compute Stick mini computer. Just like previous releases of ExTiX, Build 161119 is based on Canonical’s latest Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) operating system, and the Debian Testing repositories, which will become Debian GNU/Linux 9 “Stretch” sometime in spring 2017. But, as mentioned above, it replaces the Unity user interface with LXQt 0.10.0.
