  3. Dopo oltre sei anni, Elive torna con una nuova release stabile. La versione 3.8.50 LTS rinnova l’esperienza Enlightenment e introduce funzioni originali e leggere. #Elive #Linux #Enlightenment #Debian

  4. Feliz #ViernesDeEscritorio

    Comparto otra perspectiva de mi escritorio #GNU #Linux, con la distribución #Elive, que usa el entorno #enlightenment

  5. @ja_nube ¡ya! Es un escritorio bastante diferente a todo, eso me gusta. Lo he usado con la distro #Elive, aunque me parece divertido, lo siento algo pesado luego de un rato de trabajo. Tengo la teoría de que es el entorno que usan para las pantallas de muchas producciones de televisión y cine, especialmente del género de ciencia ficción y súper héroes.

    @mono @josmit @v

  6. 🐧 :debian: Elive 3.8.44 released ✅

    Just like Makulu Linux recently - Elive supports BOTH Snap / Flatpak by default - select during install. Becoming a trend?

    ◉Lightweight type Linux especially for older PC's - modern experience
    ◉Rock solid Debian Linux -base
    ◉Firmware updates from Debian Testing
    ◉Improved proofreading
    ◉Enlightenment desktop 16
    ◉2 kernels / updated drivers ◉Optional 64bit

  7. Did some theming for Enlightenment E26 to make it more compliant. E16 has gone as far as it can and now it's time to move on to the latest and upgrade as it always brings along the latest git-version available.
    I made a small Howto here:
    forum.elivelinux.org/t/howto-m

  8. @TheEvilSkeleton And then there's that has "impermutable mode" as a boot mode. That's where all local changes will be lost after a reboot. A nice way to do quick, worry-free tests (Yes even "sudo rm -rf /" :😂 ) and have your system spared and clutter free.
    It's for us lazy people who hate back-stepping and repairing.😇

  9. @withersailor @Borgzilla There's also Retrowave to consider.
    You get to choose in the installer which system you want.

  10. Just tried installing Retrowave on an old Transformer T100t and was rather put off by most web-searches about booting and installing .
    And you know what?
    It was no problem at all. 😎 had all the necessary ia32 boot options already included on the iso. I think it's the only distro that does that.
    Great stuff, only requiring 350Mb of the 2Gb RAM for a full, smooth and snappy desktop/tablet experience.

  12. A week since releasing LTS , traffic is starting to pick up. It offers both a 32 and a 64 bit version for free at elivecd.org
    A synthwave inspired based desktop for the community.

  13. @PureTryOut @howrar Well there are distros that are specifically geared to their default DE like There's no way any distro can just 'slap that on' as the saying goes.

  14. special edition is finally out. 😀
    Bring that older hardware like your out from under the dust and give them a new lease of life. Especially the i386 version is crafted to be super light on resources. 👍
    It's available for free and in the i386 and amd64 version here:
    eliveisos.elivecd.org/retro/

  15. Yanked out my trusty old X61T again to testdrive the special edition RC2 and again it runs snappy and pretty with only a few minor bugs.
    Almost ready for the final release next week.

  16. RC2 is out is and available for free through bittorrent. It just started here
    mgnet.me/.EliveRetroWave

  17. Hah, test driving the first Beta release of Retro. Fittingly on an old Thinkpad X61T 😎
    Looks very fancy albeit still some minor bugs to squash.

  18. @jose_exposito 'touchegg' and 'touche' work great on using E16. Great job.

  19. The special retro edition using theme is coming along nicely.
    Expect a final release shortly.

    Hast du dir schon mal #eLive angesehen? gerade wenn das Laptop nicht mehr ganz Taufrisch ist.

  21. @crossgolf_rebel
    Ja, das möchte ich auch mal ausprobieren. Habe bislang v.a. Erfahrung mit Q4OS, Puppy und Bodhi. Die sind nicht so "cool", aber ziemlich schnell...

    @Cyb3rrunn3r @macst3r @n8zug @tombies

  22. @macst3r danke für den Tipp. Jetzt schau ich erst mal was Emmabuntüs macht.
    Mir gefällt das OS eigentlich.

    Ich habe ja noch #eLive da, das mir sogar noch besser gefällt aber so viele OS will ich da gar nicht drauf machen.
