Testimonials

I have been using the latest version of the unstable branch. I use it all the time and have had no problems at all. All my hardware, including my SMC USB WIFI is working fine.

I have installed some applications that I use for my businesses. They installed fine, they run fine (LedgerSMB), Opera 9.50, Bluefish. The system is responsive and fast, just what I wanted.

Thank you.

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!

Elive 1.5.0 development released


-

The Elive Team is proud to announce the new development version 1.5 with big and important changes:



Big changes on Elive



Warning: This is a very experimental Elive iso. The boot system is entirely rewritten, working but not finished. A lot of auto-detection/configuration parts are not implemented yet. This version is not ready to be installed, this is a release for testers and collaborators who want to discuss it at the Elive Testers Group

  • Debian Testing: Ever wanted more updated packages on Elive? ok, we switch to "Lenny" that has A LOT of packages (all?) are updated! We can't describe them all here, if you want more information about this switch, have a look at the actual ideas on this temporary page

  • Elive installer: When you select a partition to install Elive on, and it already has a version of Linux on it (ANY version, and you want to replace it), and it uses a separate /home partition, there's an option to 'migrate' this system. This means that basic configurations and all the users with the files are transferred to your new Elive installation. Note: This feature is working but not fully implemented, we need testers, especially with ubuntu systems.

  • More special hotkeys for special laptops working by default (we need testers!).

  • Firefox: Nice feature that show thumbnails of the sites in your search results of google!

  • A more integrated system of translations in Elive. Anybody is VERY welcome to be a translator, you just need to send a email to with a username and a password to use, Thank you for helping us with Elive and have it translated into your native language! :)



Note that this is a DEVELOPMENT version, and especially that it is not ready for daily use. Download the ISO from the development section

You are welcome to join our Testers Mailing List Group to give us feedback about this development version or anything related to it that you want to report. Help us to make Elive even better and with more frequent releases!
