* Audio Configurator: If you have more than one audio card, you can select the right one at any moment!, this feature is very useful for me when I'm working on the night and I need to switch to the card that is set to my headphones. You can also play with Elive multiple audio sources without problems.
* Special Kernels: You can install on your installed Elive systems, special kernels that for example includes support for more than 4 GB of ram without the need of a 64 bit-OS, (in the nurse special mode)
* Translations: Elive supports now more languages, by default they are automatically translated, but you are welcome to collaborate with these translations by using Eltrans.

Linux Mint "Felicia"
Linux Mint is one of the surprise packages of the past year. Originally launched as a variant of Ubuntu with integrated media codecs, it has now developed into one of the most user-friendly distributions on the market - complete with a custom desktop and menus, several unique configuration tools, a web-based package installation interface, and a number of different editions. Perhaps most importantly, this is one project where the developers and users are in constant interaction, resulting in dramatic, user-driven improvements with every new release. DistroWatch has spoken to the founder and lead developer of Linux Mint, Clement Lefebvre, about the history of the distribution.

Some of the reasons for the success of Linux Mint are:

* It's one of the most community driven distributions. You could literally post an idea in the forums today and see it implemented the week after in the "current" release. Of course this has pros and cons and compared to distributions with roadmaps, feature boards and fixed release cycles we miss a lot of structure and potentially a lot of quality, but it allows us to react quickly, implement more innovations and make the whole experience for us and for the users extremely exciting.
* It is a Debian-based distribution and as such it is very solid and it comes with one of the greatest package managers.
* It is compatible with and uses Ubuntu repositories. This gives Linux Mint users access to a huge collection of packages and software.
* It comes with a lot of desktop improvements which make it easier for the user to do common things.
* There is a strong focus on making things work out of the box (WiFi cards drivers in the file system, multimedia support, screen resolution, etc).

Elive MacBook Version
If you have a MacBook computer and you've been discourage in the past by Linux installs and configurations that don't work... then run Elive for MacBooks as a LiveCD and if you are satisfied, install Elive on the hard disk for your main system. Elive is tuned primarily as a distribution rather than a LiveCD. What's can be better than a Linux distro optimized and configured exactly for your machine ?

* Mouse pad:
*
o You have the middle and 3rd button enabled on the pad, this is a pretty ingenious hack, the top left corner is the middle button and the top right corner is the 3rd button
o Vertical Scroll and Horizontal Scroll enabled on the right and the bottom of the pad, also. If you press the pad with 2 fingers, you can scroll (for example pages in firefox) vertically and horizontally
o A very annoyning glitch on the mousepad of the macbooks is fixed...when typing you accidentally hit the button and your mouse goes all over the screen, changing your window and making clicks ins strange areas... this problem is solved on the special version of Elive which disables the mouse, 1 second after your last click on the keyboard
o You can drag-n-drop only with the touchpad (without clicks on the button)
o Clicks and movements fine-tuned for macbooks

* Keyboard: The keyboards of the MacBooks are very peculiar and lack some very useful and needed keys, this is how Elive solves that problem:
*
o Left Apple button is equivalent to AltGr
o Right Apple button is equivalent to the "windows" key (a hotkey often used like other extra hotkeys in Elive)
o Fn + Delete is your Supr. key
o Fn + Arrows: PageUp / PageDown, Home and End buttons
o Fn + F1/F2: Backlight control
o Fn + F3/F4/F5: Mute and Volume control
o Eject button working with umount to automatically eject the device
