A pair of Linux distributions which install and run as screensavers for Microsoft Windows. Install QemuSaverOpen-1-8.zip first, then QemuSaverOpenGames-1-5.zip. QemuSaverOpen-1-8 is the packages from the old freeduc-cd-1.4.1.iso, updated for Debian 12, and without those packages which aren't currently in Debian main .
QemuSaverOpenGames-1-5 is the old GamesKnoppix, again updated for Debian 12.

The screensavers appear as
Quotefr2
and
Quotegk2
in the Windows screensaver list.

These screensavers are very slow to start (about 7 minutes) but they do eventually get to a graphical desktop. Have patience !

If you need to log out and in again, use user='user' and password='live'.

I have added 'xscreensaver' to QemuSaverOpen-1-8, so now you can have all of your favourite Linux screensavers playing on your Windows desktop if you wait long enough. I have also added LibreOffice4.

These screensavers have been featured by the Linux Foundation https://www.linux.com/featured/linux-as-a-screensaver-for-windows-the-gift-of-open-source-games-and-sboms-for-the-holidays/ , but the SHA256SUMs are different because of the rebuild for Debian 12.
