Gnome for now, I prefer KDE but Gnome is more user friendly and Ubuntu users will be used to the environment. So if you suggest a program please keep it in mind, needs to be Gnome/GTK apps. MPlayer will most likely be added.
 
What sort of GPU support does openSUSE have? I always seem to have issues getting graphics acceleration or dual screen to work currently i'm rocking an nVidia 6800GT.

Supports both ATi and nVidia, nVidia tends to have better Linux drivers. I never had GPU problems under SUSE (using ATi). Gnome supports dual-screen setups

also why only 64-bit ?
what about users with 32 bit processors

Because I am not a one man army :p. Simply put, to much work to create different versions. Besides, those still having a 32-bit CPU are in need of an upgrade.
 
Well Hyperz, if you are willing to put it on torrents, only give the torrent file to one person and let them dl off of you using a seedbox. Then they give it to other seedbox users. Then we distribute it, so that there is a base of a few high speed seedbox users.
Helps to spread, and we can advertise it all over the place.......the Warez OS :D
 
another suggestion, pre install FF with WJ as the home page. Have bookmarks for the larger warez sites.

Seems like an awesome idea.

WJ isn't useful for the average leecher. I think Elj's idea is better, have an offline startpage with links to useful sites and maybe a google custom search thing like the default FF startpage.

But I'll have to redo a bunch of work, yesterday my VM harddrive corrupted for no reason :(.
 
this looks really interesting, I got no suggestion as I haven't worked much with Linux but none the less good work here!
 
If you can make it user friendly with msn, aim client, ftp, unraring program type of stuff I'd use it.

Linux confuses me 100% because it hard to install stuff.

DEB packages solves this problem.

Anyway, I think you should also add a link checker and a post manager or some shit like that. Would help out with forum sites.

I could design the page if you want. Give me a list of useful sites
 
you can get a great link checker addon for firefox
it checks links from all the most popular file hosts and then some.
 
Thanks for the suggestions people.

Tiny update:

I've decided to start over with this because I wasn't happy with the direction it was going. I guess I was testing/exploring to many things and the whole thing just started to feel like a pile of badly organized software. That and something was terribly wrong with a GTK2 theme engine which caused the theme I was trying to put together look like Windows 98, lol. Oh well, we have time enough :).

I'm also not sure whether it is a good idea to make snapshots available (as in ISO's of the current progress which do work but do not reflect at all what the end result will be).
 
nah man. stuff like that is expected, thats how it turns into a work of art, and not a "pile-o-junk thrown together" :) Starting over shows you give a fuck imo.

Would be great to see your progress. Pictures are the best illustration :)
 
I've been thinking about making some recordings to place on youtube instead of pictures. But again, what would be seen in the video wouldn't be what the final thing would look like (especially the Theme, would be the default SUSE one still). And possibly make users go "Meh... -.-". I dunno, I'll record it when I rebuild an ISO file.
 
Another small update. Just finished pre-configuring the font rendering.
A lot of people always complain about fonts and text in Linux saying
it looks shit compared to windows. Well, I think I got them near perfect :).
I would even go as far as saying the fonts look better than on a default *buntu install.
