Pear Linux Comice OS 4

Unknown | 06.05 | 0 comments


The first stable edition, Pear Linux Comice OS 4, was released on March 23. There was a standard desktop edition, a netbook edition, and a KDE edition. The KDE edition is in first beta. This article presents a review of the standard desktop edition. An installation image is available for 32- and 64-bit architectures, each weighing in at about 1.1 GB.

Pear Linux Comice OS 4 is based on Ubuntu, the installing process is identical to that of Ubuntu or Linux Mint. However, one negative point of Pear Linux Comice OS 4 is that there is no Wubi option for you to try it inside Windows, so if you want a full experience with Pear Linux Comice OS 4, you need to install it as a dedicated OS. But from my experience, the installing is very fast, it took me only around 15 minutes to get Pear Linux Comice OS 4 fully installed in my laptop. Here are some screenshots of the installing process of Pear Linux Comice OS 4.

The first good thing about Pear Linux Comice OS 4 is that unlike the former versions, this time the default language is English instead of French so it will appeal more users. And since Comice OS is inspired of Mac OS, you shouldnt be surprised to know Comice OS looks really like Mac OS. Pear Linux Comice OS 4 uses Gnome3 as the window manager, but unlike Linux Mint, there is only one silver panel at the top of the screen. On this panel, you will find the common indicators that also appear on the panel of Ubuntu and Linux Mint. Pear Linux Comice OS 4 uses docky as the launcher, and put it at the bottom of the screen. Docky helps you to launch applications and switch between applications. By default, Docky in Pear Linux Comice OS 4 is set to be always visible so it will consume some vertical space. You can change the behavior of Docky by right-clicking on the seperator line ( next to the trash icon), the setting window of Docky will appear and you can choose the "intellhide" option to make Docky hide when you open apps. When you open the setting window of Docky, you can also drag the Docky panel to other places other than the bottom of the screen. One bad thing is that the default wallpaper is too bright so it's really hard to see the indicator spot on the Docky panel. The default settings of Docky here will perhaps suit better with a dark wallpaper.
