Dear Linux and Free and Open Source Community Members, this is Mario Behling from Germany, working for the LXDE Foundation. I am currently on an Asian tour promoting the faster and more energy efficient Linux solution LXDE. Because of a change of my travel schedule I have the opportunity to stay in Singapore for some days. I would like to meet people from the local free and open source community to present LXDE to you.
LXDE is an extremely faster and more energy saving Linux desktop project started 3 years ago by the Taiwanese hacker Hong Jee Yen aka PCMan. It is included in the new Fedora release. LXDE packages are also available in Ubuntu, Debian, Mandriva and many other ditributions. Anyone interested, please get in touch with me. XMPP: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Singapore Phone +65 82468648 Thank you. Some more infos on LXDE below and on our website http://lxde.org. A video of a recent meet up with the Linux User Group in Shenzhen is here http://blog.lxde.org/?p=110 I hope it will be possible to meet up with you. Best regards, Mario ---------------------------------- LXDE，全名为Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment LXDE 的全名是 「Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment - 輕量級 X11 桌面環境」，它是由國際社群開發者共同維護，同時具備高效能以及節能兩大特點之 Linux 桌面環境。它具備優美的介面，支援多國語言，標準鍵盤快捷鍵以及其他諸如分頁瀏覽檔案等功能。LXDE 使用少量的 CPU 以及記憶體資源，而且特別適合使用於 Netbook （小筆電），MID（行動上網裝置）以及比較老舊的電腦。LXDE 可以安裝在如 Ubuntu 或是 Debian 的 Linux 發行版上，而原本裝在上面的程式也可以在 LXDE 上正常運作。LXDE 原始碼以 GNU GPL（通用公共授權） 或是 LGPL（寬鬆通用公共授權）釋出。 LXDE，是一个自由桌面环境，可在 Unix 以及如Linux、BSD 等 POSIX 相容平台上执行。主要开发者为 Open PCMan 的著名台湾开放源代码程式设计者洪任谕（PCMan）、钱逢祥 (Fred Chien) ，以及其他活跃开发者刘颖骏 (Paul Liu)、李健秋(Andrew Lee) 及黄敬群(jserv) 等。LXDE 专案旨在提供一个新的轻量、快速的桌面环境。相较于功能强大与伴随而来的膨胀性，LXDE 注重于实用性和轻巧性，并且尽力降低其所耗系统资源。不同于其它桌面环境，其元件相依性极少。取而代之的是各元件可以独立运作，大多数的元件都不须倚赖其它套件而可以独自执行。LXDE 使用 Openbox 为其默认窗口管理器[1] 并且希望能够提供一个建立在互相独立套件上的轻量级快速的桌面。 LXDE "Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment", is an extremely faster, performing and energy saving Linux desktop environment maintained by an international community of developers. It comes with a beautiful interface, multi-language support, standard keyboard short cuts and additional features like tabbed file browsing. LXDE uses less CPU and less RAM. It is especially designed for computers with low hardware specifications like netbooks, mobile internet devices (MIDs) or older computers. LXDE can be installed with distributions like Ubuntu or Debian. Applications running on these systems will run with LXDE.
