Enlightenment DR17 On the Linux Desktop

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the zen-and-the-art-of-x dept.

StephenJoiner writes "There's a new review on Mad Penguin of the latest VectorLinux release, which includes the in-development Enlightenment DR17 desktop. As far as I know, this is the first time DR17 has appeared on a production desktop... even as a "technology preview". All I have to say is Enlightenment on VectorLinux is absolutely off the scale." Enlightenment was in Slashdot news earlier for both the involvement with Elive and their use of Epeg bits to deal with thumbnailing.

    Enlightening.

    Maybe this will win the desktop war?

  2. DR17? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    what the fuck is DR17?

  3. StyleXP by superpulpsicle · · Score: -1, Troll

    We don't need 10 flavors of Gnome, KDE, Enlightment etc. We need a very customizable engine like StyleXP for windows with a billion interface skins to download.

    They didn't even link to in the review and I believe it's already slashdotted anyway

  5. Wireless by ectotherm · · Score: -1, Troll

    Maybe this version will actually have some decent support for wireless and WPA...
