Check it out at wmlive.sourceforge.net
The former requirement for a donation has been dropped as it didn't generate any sufficient increase in donations.

The #wmlive distribution based on current #Debian includes a few custom graphical tools that were relatively easy to create by combining bash shell scripting with the gtk2 version of #yad.
For example, this graphical frontend for the dpigs command is actually just a shell script.

Good news for users of Pentium class machines:
It is perfectly possible to build a fully functional Franken-wmlive for 32-bit combining the Bookworm installer/kernel with the Debian/Trixie i386 software pool.
Unless a showstopper suggests otherwise, there will also be an i386 version of wmlive.

A new #wmlive version based on Debian/Trixie point release 13.2 is planned for the week after its release on 15th November 2025.
Work is already in progress but still requires significant time for completion. To invest the required time we do need some financial support.
