	Austrian Slackware Mirror
		Slackware is one of the oldest linux distributions still in active development.
		If you're looking for other slackware mirrors which often update the -current tree you might want to look at alphageek's server list.
		Please support me (paying domain costs and stuff) by looking for slackware stuff (or other things) on amazon in english or deutsch or have a look at my wishlist.

	The Slackware Linux Project
		We are proud to announce that Slackware Linux version 11.0 has been finally released; it took some time but is well worth the wait.
		Slackware 11.0 contains the 2.4.33.3 Linux kernel, 2.6.17.13 in /extra and 2.6.18 in the /testing directory; the default boot option is the dependable 2.4.33.3 kernel, but this time we included more choices and support for 2.6.x kernels.
		This Slackware version is by far the most cutting edge ever released, it includes KDE version 3.5.4 (including the Amarok media player), XFCE 4.2.3.2, the latest versions of Firefox and Thunderbird, plus SeaMonkey 1.0.5 (replacing the Mozilla suite).

	freshmeat.net: Project details for Slackware
		Slackware offers a stable and secure version of Linux that is perfect for home, office, or educational use.
		Slackware is not only the best, but it is also the best father for many great projects around the world, like Slax, GoblinX, Mutagenix and gNOX, livecds, and some other distros...
		The first time I used Slackware (and linux at all), it was a 3.1 version, and I still have this good feeling of stability and security RH never provides (Last version of a software is not always the best one).

	Slackware 10: First Impressions - OSNews.com
		Slackware 10 has now arrived after much anticipation, and my initial assessment is that the latest offering is even more appropriate as a server platform than the previous one.
		I honestly believe that Slackware's reputation for being difficult to install is not just undeserved but quite wrong, particularly in the case of servers being installed by system administrators who presumably have a basic level of Linux knowledge.
		Slackware doesn't provide a simple option for doing this, though it is still possible to create an array.

	Slackware - LQWiki
		Slackware is the oldest active Linux distribution, having begun life as a much improved variant of SLS (Soft Landing System) in 1993 and was perhaps the first distro to really put itself on the map.
		Slackware consistently rates high at the LQ Distribution Review section, with each version since 8.1 achieving a rating of at least 9 out of 10 on average.
		Slackware has continued to have a mixed reputation, being seen as pure, genuine, simple and a great distro to learn Linux on, or possibly also as old-fashioned, unfriendly, and difficult for newbies.

	Slackware - Linux & Open Source @ NUS
		Slackware Linux is a complete 32-bit multitasking "UNIX-like" system.i It's currently based around the 2.4 Linux kernel series and the GNU C Library version 2.3.4 (libc6).
		Slackware are almost guaranteed to run right on install, as Patrick (or Pat, as he's affectionately called on the forums), does tonnes of testing before officially releasing each, um..
		While it's true that Slackware doesn't have the repositories that Debian and Red Hat users are used to, and compiling from source does become necessary at times, all is not despair and gloom.

	Three Months with Slackware Linux 9.1 - OSNews.com
		Slackware is the snapiest of all under normal Gnome desktop usage at least.
		Slackware is the first one that "stuck" on me. Not because it fixes long term problems with the Unix/X usability or doing anything so different from the rest, but because it is simple, it is easy to understand its "way", it's stable, and it's easy to install applications.
		In general, Slackware wins on the edges, it is not that different from the rest, but different enough on the places that count to offer a consistent experience.

	slackware.ru : The Linux distribution that's always in the black
		Slackware started in early 1993, but it wasn't until the middle of 1994 that I was contacted by Michael Johnston of Morse Telecommunications and asked if I was interested in having them publish Slackware commercially.
		Before then, Slackware was a non-commercial endeavour, but I'd seen commercial distributions like Caldera emerge in that first year, and it was pretty clear that if the project was going to continue that I'd need to have some way to fund it, so I agreed.
		Initially Slackware was just my own version of SLS where I'd fixed as many bugs as I could in the packages, and especially in the installer.

	NewsForge \| My desktop OS: Slackware 10.2 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Slackware doesn't check for dependencies when you install packages, so you have to face some risks, and Slackware by itself does not provide an automatic mechanism to upgrade packages.
		Slackware 10.2 is a great Linux distribution, but it was released in September 2005, this article is way late out.
		Only Slackware gives you all the tools to do it yourself, your way, on your time, and helps you learn what you're doing so that when that anomaly crops up you are ready to deal with it.

	Slackware
		Slackware is the oldest and one of the most widely-used Linux distributions.
		Slackware is mature--its shortcomings are widely acknowledged, for the most part discovered, documented, and patched whenever possible.
		When Slackware was first put together, everyone was a first-time Linux user, and the system was always experimental--reinstalling the entire operating system and its major applications was the norm in a developmental system.

	DistroWatch.com: Put the fun back into computing. Use Linux, BSD.
		Slackware, on the other hand, is almost unique in that it uses a beautifully simple method of system initialization that was borrowed from BSD Unix (ie FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD).
		Yes, there is "Slackware Linux Essentials" (often called the "Slackbook") which you can read online, or you can order a paper copy for US$19.95 from the Slackware store.
		Many Slackware newbies are unaware of these mailing lists and the news group, and as a result you see very little traffic on the mailing lists, and only slightly more on the news group.

	Slackware 10 - A Breathtaking Performer (Site not responding. Last check: )
		But to be fair, I would also have to add that while Slackware has always been geared towards ease of use, it has never really been a newbie's distro which explains the obvious lack of effort in that direction.
		Slackware usually is one of those distro's that usually doesnt pack more than one application of a kind, with a few exceptions here and there.
		Slackware also comes with Umbrello 1.2.2, a UML modeller and this is a pretty neat addition.

	Slackware-FAQ - LQWiki
		Unfortunately, one of the rules in the udev-026-i486-1.tgz package that ships with Slackware 10.0 is wrong, causing problems with the terminals that less (which man uses) relies on.
		Be aware, you will also probably need to change the default terminal font to a Unicode one, and you're going to have to rename any directories or files that use characters from the ISO 8859-* sets that are not part of the 'core' ASCII characters - e.g.
		By default, Slackware now uses CUPS (as of 10.1, though apsfilter and lrpng can be found in /pasture).

		Slackware is one of the "purest" forms of Linux available.

	Software RAID in Slackware
		Other than the fact that Slackware is the only distribution I use, it is such a 'generic' distribution that almost all of what is presented here can be easily ported to other distributions.
		Slackware has utilized the 2.4 series of linux kernels since the days of Slackware 8.0.
		If you are working with an older 2.2 kernel, either by choice in Slackware 8, or from an older release, you will need to compile a custom kernel with all of the appropriate RAID patches.

	LWN: A look at Slackware 10.0
		Slackware also continues to use the BSD-style init scripts, though slightly streamlined in this release, as opposed to the SYSV style init scripts that are used by most other Linux distributions.
		The latest Slackware release is based on the stock 2.4.26 Linux kernel, with an optional 2.6.7 kernel for users who wish to run the 2.6 series.
		Slackware still includes a wide array of window managers and desktop environments, and tends to stay on or close to the cutting edge there.
