Description:

LiveW is a Linux OS based on openSUSE (11.1 atm) which is targeted at warez users. It includes a range of programs and tools for downloading, running and viewing warez. It also has many things pre-installed and configured which you normally don't find in Linux distros such as Ubuntu, openSUSE, etc including Flash, PlayOnLinux, Wine, lots of codecs, Microsoft core fonts, working and pre-configured sub-pixel font rendering for LCD monitors etc. You don't have to remove Windows or install it in order to use, you can just boot from the CD (Live CD). Though if you like you can still easily install it to your harddrive after you booted the CD, and I would recommend doing so. Another thing worth noting is: no viruses, trojans, keyloggers, BSOD's whatsoever! However, you can still get Rick Roll'd.

Download Mirrors (Current version: 0.0.3 ALPHA):

More mirrors are welcome! If you uploaded the ISO to your server/VPS or a file host please share the link(s) in this topic, thanks :).

Changes since the last version:

  • Changed Firefox default theme to one that looks more like the Windows version.
  • Fixed issue in Firefox where it would not select the correct program for opening files.
  • Added some Firefox 'Scene Bookmarks' (More will be added later)
  • Pre-installed Firefox add-ons: AdBlock Plus, GreaseMonkey, KDST, Im4ge, IC Tools.
  • Added Ndiswrapper package.
  • Some other small config tweaks here and there.
This the last ALPHA release.

Known Issues:

  • In some cases the splash screen doesn't show while booting.
  • Sometimes the system reverts to the default openSUSE theme. If this should happen you can easliy change it again by going to Computer > Control Center > Appearance and changing the theme to LiveW 0.1.
  • Some of the openSUSE art, branding and icons hasn't been replace yet.
  • This is an ALPHA release, other issues and bugs should be expected.
Things not present yet that will be in the Final version:

  • Additional Firefox Add-ons, Bookmarks and Plugins.
  • Homebrew scene apps and some custom programs by me (for warez users).
  • A Peer-2-Peer client.
  • Simple CompizConfig Settings Manager.
  • Some other stuff which I can't think of now.

Minimum system requirements:
- Single core AMD Athlon64 or 64 bit Pentium 4 processor
- 256MB RAM, 512MB is highly recommended
- 3GB HDD (for installation)

I would personally also recommend a recent ATI or nVidia card.

I wish windows xp would be open source. Oh yeah, don't forget to add alcohol 120% and dvd decrypter to it :)

Alcohol 120% is kinda, erm, Windows lol. A program like that wouldn't be needed. As for DVD decryption, again, that's Windoze madness. Linux doesn't care about DVD protection. Why should it? :p
 
Nearly done with the 1st alpha so it's to see how I'm gonna make the ISO available to the public.

If anyone wants to host a mirror please let me know. ISO size is between 600-700MB.
 
Well I'm looking for something more stable than just a few hours, but thanks for the offer.

Btw, you would be able to let your server/VPS download the ISO instead of having to upload it yourself. You will be able to:
Code:
wget http://UrlIWillProvide.com/LiveW-x86_64-0.0.1.iso

Edit @ddlshack: Great, I'll take not of it :). Also I don't expect that this will be a great bandwidth eater since only we (WJ) know about it.

I wouldnt hold my breath as tons of people here are looking forward to using it. Plus once its released it will probably go around the warez scene rather quickly
 
Yea there seems to be some interest in the project. But I don't think it'll go that quick. Unlike for example SharpLeech, this ain't a 3mb program that everyone can run inside their Beloved Windows. Unless of course it's run in a VM. But I don't think it'll even total 100 downloads in the 1st 2 weeks.
 
I wouldn't mind you doing that when its released CyberHack, infact I hope you will because the more mirrors the better. Just be sure to share the links in the release thread when you do.

On a side note, I'm building the final (hopefully, if nothing goes wrong) ISO. If all goes well and no big issues are found during testing the first ALPHA should be released in about 1-2 hours. Stay tuned :).
