Testimonials

Debian itself is new to me. Your Elive caught my eye, though, and I tried it. Cool. Everything works nicely, and all the most important things are there.

But, the story, and the kudos, don't stop there.

My family is basically Microsoft oriented. The wife and kids have always been hesitant about experimenting with Linux, of any flavor.

My youngest son (age 15) simply fell in love with the Enlightenment desktop, and the window management system.

To the creators behind this awesome distro, please allow me to congratulate you and give you my thanks, for creating this unique piece of software.

Elive is fast, super fast, freaking fast, is a gem.

Thank you!!!!!

My old Toshiba Satellite4030CDT laptop suddenly looks and feels like a modern computer thanks to Elive. What a difference from that boring Windows 98! Everything essential like screen settings and AlsaSound worked flawlessly after installation. I even got wireless lan from USB dongle whith help of Ndiswrapper and WICD.

The best distro i used so far! :D

You guys don't get enough props for this.

I keep coming back to Elive. Better than any other distro. E17 is just too goddamn beautiful.

Keep up the good work!

I must admit, I tired many linux, about to give up, the problems about drivers, bugs, freezing so on, but once I heard about Elive, I though I might as well give linux another chance, and I am glad I did! A couple of bugs, but what OS doesnt have atleast a couple? Its the only OS i need, and the only one I want :) Thank you, I am glad I donated, it was worth it.

Time is the best teacher, too bad it kills all of its students
