    Elive 1.9.26 development release is available for download

    What is ELive?

    Elive also known as Enlightenment live is a Linux distribution based on Debian for legacy and commodity hardware with Intel processors. Elive uses the Enlightenment X window manager instead of GNOME or KDE. Elive is a fully functional distribution with a Live CD counterpart that allows the user to sample the distribution before installing it on the system.

    Elive can be used like any Live CD or installed to the hard drive to access its full features. Elive utilizes UnionFS, which allows users to install software packages using Synaptic Package Manager and/or APT, while the user's computer is running from the Live CD

    Features :

    Debian based: Elive is a distribution which is based on the well known Debian, providing recent packages and stability. Elive replaces the Debian packages with customized version if needed. More than 500 packages have been added or customized.

    Enlightenment powered : The Enlightenment window manager provides a desktop featuring a fast, light, very flexible environment that still offers eye candy and all the necessary resources to run your day to day applications. Elive includes E16, for speed and stability, along with a special version of E17 selected from cvs (regulary updated through Elive's test branch repository. Most of the programs built on top of the Enlightenment Foundation Libraries are also included.

    Intuitive : Elive aims to be a comfortable easy to use Linux system with many customization possibilities. It provides maximum power and speed for the experienced user. In a fully preconfigured environment, user friendly tools are centralized in an original control panel to help easily manage your system (Elpanel).

    Fast: One of the most important goals of Elive is to be fast and easy to use. You can control your PC like you always did or you have the possibility to work in a different way. With only one keypress you can open any desired programs or launch any action. You can resize, iconify, move or switch between desktops.

    Minimum Requirements : The minimum hardware for running Elive is a 100 Mhz CPU and 64 MB of RAM, but the minimum recommended hardware is 300 Mhz and 128 Mb of RAM. You don't need any special graphic card or 3D acceleration to run Elive.

    Updates and bug fixes in this Version :

    Nvidia / Ati: When you upgrade the kernel package and modules, you will broke your nvidia/ati drivers except if you update/install/remove any requirement manually... this problem is solved since this version by holding ALL the kernel/driver packages (and GLX packages) in case that the user needs a nvidia/ati privative driver.
    Accelerated boot: A bit more accelerated boot of the live system by sorting the files of the filesystem in the cdrom structure by their access order.
    Practical things: Convert any audio file to MP3 / OGG by right-click on them in the file-manager.

    Extra Features :

    • You can run Elive directly from the CD, without the need to install it. Just put the CD in the drive and reboot.
    • Ability to install any package through apt or synaptic in liveCD mode! (UnionFS featured)
    • Great hardware detection and unique tools.
    • A control panel for managing your desktop and administrating your system:
    • Through Elpanel you can control your whole system, i.e. from Elpanel you can launch all the programs to add/remove packages, configure your hardware, customize the look and feel of Elive... etc.
    • The "elive-skel" tool in Elive provides the user with a pre-made custom configured system. This tool is started when a new user gets created and can be invoked through Elpanel (for example after an upgrade.) You can use it for recovering default configurations, updating them, or changing the look of your Elive system.
    • Bonus disks, the new feature of Elive:
    • If you are not an experienced user, or you prefer an easy, intuitive, and complete way to install things in Elive. Then you can use the Bonus Discs
    • Download a Bonus disc, burn it on a CD, put the CD-ROM in the computer, and click "install". You don't have to do anything more. You can also use it on a USB Stick instead of burning it to a CD.
