The Elive Nurse mode is finished!

Like you may have read in the last Blog entry, there's a very nice feature called Nurse Mode, and now it is totally finished and implemented on the last Elive Development ISO. If you need to troubleshoot the installation for some reason, we hope you enjoy the nurse's valuable assistance!


This is the list of the current implemented features that Nurse Mode has:

• Wifi: A suite to install drivers for your Wireless card using ndiswrapper (makes the wireless card work using native windows drivers)
• Passwords: Modify user(s) or admin passwords
• Apps Win*: Remove Windows* installed applications (yes, because you can install them in a very easy way in Elive)
• Apps Menu: Remove personal applications/icons entries from the menus
• Configurations: Update some user/personal configurations and set as the default made for Elive
• Configurations: Another feature to recover other old configurations, but this feature is not implemented yet as pf this writing
• Keyboard: Reconfigure your keyboard mapping
• Language: Reconfigure your language
• DiskPlug: This will fix any external pluggable disk that was not automatically mounted when it was inserted or connected
• Reports: Report bugs to Elive
• WinMigrate: A small how-to about some tips for migrating from a Windows* system, such as importing things like bookmarks. If you have more tips for this you can email me :)
• More: Other minor features and future ones that may be implemented for the next stable release

We hope that Nurse Mode will make life easier for any user, since not experience nor expertise required :)
