The Elive Team is proud to announce the release of compiz version 1.9.27

This is a major update for the Compiz series of Elive

This version includes some misc features like:

• Module: Now instead of configuring compiz from ecsm you can do it from a module
• Cube: The cube is disabled by default now due to its instability compared with the wall mode
• Switcher: Not that the switcher (windows switcher) of compiz is ugly, but its a bit annoying while the default switcher of E17 is a lot more powerful, configurable, and stable, so we use it as default now (it is still accessed by pressing the ‘win’ key plus the Tab key)
• Note:: Remember that these are the default configurations. You can change them to your taste!

 We appreciate your feedbacks about the overall speed/lightness of the system compared to last stable version of Elive. You can say something in our chat channel directly from the running system. If you detect any lagging in the system please consider different setups like disabling composite (which you can select on the startup of the graphical system) in order to report improvements. We would also appreciate feedbacks about composite enabled or disabled in old computers, suggestions for better performances, and memory usage compared to Topaz.

Note that these development releases don’t include the Elive Installer yet because it’s not ready, we also didn’t include the proprietary drivers for now (Nvidia/fglrx) but the opensource drivers should detect your hardware and configure your system perfectly.

You can Download this version at the development section.

Please remember that this is an alpha version of Elive which is uncomplete and may have errors, if you want to see a polished result of Elive try the Stable version instead.

Give us a comment in our chat channel, you can also improve Elive by yourself in github.
