Open Source Depends Upon Your Bug Reports
Over the weekend I did an update on my Elive Compiz powered main PC. I didn’t realize it at the time but the update was actually an upgrade (I ran the update via Syanptic not apt-get - otherwise I would have known) and I wound up running the unstable version. This unstable version had some issues with some of the aspects that drew me to the distribution in the first place. No longer did the 3D cube work. Shading windows upa nd down was now an exercies in patiences, there were issues with drop shadows, and opacity was having issues of its own. Of course these are all minor in the grand scheme of things. I could still get my work done, but it wasn’t the same.
After this happened I poked around the system a while to see if I could figure it out. I couldn’t. So I checked the Elive Forums and didn’t find anything. So I posted my information to the forums knowing the developers read and replied to many of the posts. After that was over I headed over to the Elive Bug Tracking page to see if anything had been posted.
