About the project

Hag (recursive acronym for Hag's actually grml) is a GNU/Linux distribution, based on  grml.

Main goals of this project are:

  1. enslave hearts of ladies
  2. incite all, who think that there are too many distributions
  3. show power of Fluxbox by providing Live system (which you can run directly from medium — i.e. CD, USB key — without instalation on hard drive, but it is also possible), with polished up configurations of desktop environments (including configurations of Qt and GTK styles, part of software: conky, yeahconsole, mocp, etc.) with Fluxbox as windowmanager (with tastefully wallpapers and styles, polished up keyboard shortcuts, well scripted)

After boot, just before starting X Server, user will have few configurations to choose from, i.e.:

  • standard for Hag configuration, probably in few colour versions
  • configuration with adesklets widgets (as system monitor, iconbar, etc.)
  • configurations with third party panels: fbpanel, pypanel, etc.
  • configurations with iconbars by fbpanel, pypanel, idesk, wbar, etc.
  • configurations with desktops by rox-filer, pcmanfm
  • fluxbox-vanilla, with default configuation

which will be automatically changed with symlinks.

Unofficial anthem of the project is song Wiedźma (pl. Witch) from album Gusła (pl. Witchcraft) by polish band  Lao Che.
