Enlightenment in 3D

[Speelgoedmannetje]

Sorry, I hated every bit of it. This graphic stuff only a burden to the processing power, the benefits can be easily achieved with conventional 2d graphics by a creative mind.
It's just the same 'shock and awe' song again. While there's still so much to do considering performance, flexibility and user friendlyness (and also flexibility in user friendlyness - for future applications)

The standard Enlightenment 17 offers this in buckets. So far as I can tell, this is just to show it can be done. Perhaps you should try one of the non 3d composited versions of Elive...

Fact is, is that Enlightenment uses a fraction of the resources a gnome or kde based linux does and is as fast as xfce on the same hardware. That it runs so smoothly even on something as pathetic (spec wise) as my eeepc is a testiment to the amount of optimisation that it has for "low end" systems.

You might also want to double check Elive's minimum system requirements - Pentium 1 processor with 64Mb of ram, same as with a cut down linux running xfce.

Only prettier. And more flexable. And more conducive to keeping a high level of workflow.

I used Elive 1.0 on my PC after trialing SUSE, Ubuntu and a half dozen others, all of which I found clunky after using BeOS/Zeta. It was the first distro that I didn't have to prat about with codecs or drivers for, it was the first one that ran out of the box with all of my hardware first time everytime.

I loved it and it still bugs the hell out of me that that machine was stolen. I got so much done using it that it wasn't funny. It had a great interface, had a rediculously small memory and system overhead and it seemed never to slow down even when you were thrashing the hell out of it.

O.K. :-)
I'll try it when I reinstall my pc.
I just hated how slow kde and gnome were.
Still, I'd love to see a linux distro as fast as BeOS. (or faster :-D)
