Testimonials

Congratulations on the making of such a great distro, and thank you for your hard work. I hope you can continue with it.

I love Elive too. Best features for me are:

- Based on Debian Stable & E
- desktop (exactly what I want)
- all multimedia works out of the box
- bundled applications are very thoughtful. For example, most people who own computers these days also own a digital stills and video camera, yet most distros don't come with the tools needed for editing home m

Just wanted to say that I love ELIVE! I just got it installed and have been toying with it for an hour or so, and I have 0 complaints so far. My only issue is getting wireless working, and thats only because Broadcomm sucks for not making a linux driver like every other wireless chipset maker. Anyway, I will try to post here as much as possible with issues, fixes, and ideas as they crop up. With the community's help this could be the greatest OS Distro EVER!

THANKS ELIVE TEAM!

Elive is definitely the best looking distributions available. It uses the Enlightenment desktop environment. I have never used Enlightenment before. The ELIVE default desktop is absolutely gorgeous! The stars in the sky twinkle and move throughout the very nice looking background. The application dock at the bottom of the screen is cute, in fact better than Mac OSX. I am soon gonna switch over to Elive. I love it.

Keep up the good work Thanatermesis. You have done a fantastic job by producin

I have been impressed with Elive and e17 for quite a while...

Yesterday I did two things:

1. I re-installed Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

2. I installed a dual boot to Elive Gem 1.0

Both installs went without event, I was most impressed with how Elive set up a custom grub menu, with the 3 options:

1. Elive Gem 1.0

2. Windows XP Media Center Edition

3. Memory Diagnostic test

I was also impress

Last year I downloaded a Elive CD and was pretty amazed by it. although it did crash alot but I saw the potential :)

Now, a few month's ago I bought a HP DV9064ea and I thought by myself let's give elive another run and everything runs out of the box once you install it, unbelievable even the integrated webcam seems to function.

Great job with this fine distro :)

Thanatermesis has now started working on the next development version of Elive


It will of course, lead up to 2.0.
The new version will include new kernel and (finally!) the new e17! We are estimating that it will take 3-5 weeks to get the iso ready, so keep your eyes open.

Thanatermesis promises the new e17 (builds of the CVS version) and a new directory for the Elive repository for a selection of applications updated in a recent version. Ports of applications like Gimp, Inkscape, Blender etc, will be available and with update notifications.



New Bonus Discs out!


Thanatermesis has finished 3 awesome Game bonus discs, ready to install.
