Debian Based, E27 + E16, 2 Kernels, Updated drivers, 64BIT, rock solid like never seen before, and much more...

The Elive Team is pleased to announce the release of 3.8.48

This new version includes:

  • File Manager: Added actions such as creating torrents, printing documents, and streaming videos to ChromeCast.
  • Notification Widget: Updated to feature a more advanced interface.
  • DBUS Communication fixes that resolve mounting problems and other miscellaneous application issues.
  • Kernel: Backported from 6.11.10, which includes improved stability for the BTRFS filesystem.
  • Drivers: Improved the r8168 driver, which previously caused computers to hang at boot due to excessive logs.
  • Default Calculator switched to gcalculator, which is lighter and more feature-rich.
  • Multiple Small UX and wording Improvements.
Notes from the Developer:


Enlightenment desktop: Developing Enlightenment Desktop for Elive involves extensive research to identify bugs and to address various user interactions and needs. You will not see much changes on E27 for this release, it is a more stable overall system.

Let's rebuild the Elive Excelence

You surely remember the virtuous operating system that, according to some, was just Debian + Enlightenment. But those who truly explored and navigated it will never forget its speed, beauty, and lightness. Efficiency at its finest. The golden age is behind us now, multiple avalanches have tried to bury the virtue that once set us apart. Financial hardships faced by its creator have affected the operating system’s development. Criticism, hate, bots, bugs, there’s an entire story behind it all. The past gave us roots, but the future will give us wings. 

But first, we must recover the virtue that was taken and restore the reputation that was stained. That is why we invite you to be part of this powerful project, because together, what would be impossible alone becomes easier. 

But there's a job that only you can do, and for that we are creating a group of volunteers that can help us with this task. Things like mention Elive in multiple places, write in our social medias, share it with the world, or even improve the wikipedia article.

We have already a few powerful strategies and brainstorming even more powerful ones.
