    EDE Equinox Desktop Environment

    I had planned to post this some time ago and it slipped my mind and another thread on LXDE brought it back down out of the woodroom.

    EDE is one of the group of REALLY "lightweight" DEs that were developed the last few years but fell off the radar.

    It is C++(FLTK)

    Here is the Wikipedia article.

    The fellow known as Fragadelic was involved in producing the last, seemingly, workable version of it as an Ubu.

    Fragadelic, who has absented himself of late, was one of the really prime movers behind the scenes in Linux and I am sad to see that he has absented himself. Fragadelic goes all the way back to Xandros... He produced "Remastersys"....which I have used for ....years....it will do a complete remaster of your distro, but because of "stuff" he has not made a release in some time..too bad...it worked..really...

    But, here is his d/l page for EDE on Ubu.

    It is an interesting DE, it may take some fiddling depending on your hardware but worth the effort.

    If you had the right icon theme in there you could almost make it look exactly like Windows 95 through ME. I mean, you already got the windowing theme.

        Oh, I've been hangin' around here still. I usually don't have much to say so I don't post much though.
