[manjaro-general] 1st Release Candidate of Manjaro LXDE 0.8.9 available!

[Manjaro Linux | Manjaro Linux: Manjaro Team]

[![lxde089rc1][1]][2]We are happy to announce our first release candidiate of Manjaro LXDE 0.8.9.

LXDE is a super-lightweight desktop environment that is very similar to XFCE, with the exception that it is not compatible with Compiz. As with XFCE, LXDE is also a somewhat basic desktop environment, lacking some modern features that would be expected, such as a search-bar to find applications and files. However, it is also an excellent choice for less powerful computers, as a 64 bit installation of Manjaro running LXDE uses only about 150MB of memory.
