| | Slackware - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Slackware was one of the earliest Linux distributions, and is the oldest distribution still being maintained. | | | ZipSlack is a boiled-down edition of the Slackware Linux distribution originally designed to fit on a 100 MB Zip disk. | | | Slackware's approach to the problem seems to be well accepted by its often technically adept user base. |

| | freshmeat.net: Project details for Slackware |
| | Slackware is the longest-running distribution of the Linux operating system. | | | 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 is a very good distribution that anyone can use (from newbies to developers). |

| | Slackware's installation procedure is much simpler and much quicker than those of other distributions--even a beginner can have a working system very easily. | | | As Slackware more closely resembles commercial Unix system, it is a good tool for learning skills, such as system administration, which are easily transferable to other versions of Linux or Unix. | | | Slackware includes more boot floppy images to ease installation on machines containing unusual hardware such as SCSI peripherals or proprietary CD-ROM drives than any other distribution. |

| | Get to Know Slackware 9.1 - OSNews.com |
| | Slackware is my new favorite operating system along with FreeBSD, Windows Server 2003 and Mac OS X. It works great as a workstation and a desktop system and I have no doubt that it would do a great server as well. | | | All packages are coming pre-compiled with some i686 optimizations (Slackware runs minimum on a 486) and usually, all depended.tgz packages are to be found at the same place. | | | If you are an intermediate/advanced user, you really need to have a look at Slackware's simple way of doing things. |

| | The first problem many people encounter with Slackware is the lack of a tool to upgrade the system. | | | After that it creates a Slackware package of the software that you just "make install"-ed and installs it. | | | Right now Slackware has the latest desktop environments, server software, utilities and libraries. |

| | Championing Slackware : No Lancelot, I. TUX |
| | Slackware didn't dictate which desktop I could use; it gave me choice and latitude to select the best desktop environment for my needs, and provided all the tools to make my choice work. | | | Slackware has met and maintained this intent time and again, with a Linux distribution noted for it's ability to run without fail on just about any Intel-compatible hardware. | | | Slackware's "pkgtool" set of utilities makes package installation, upgrading, and removal easy, and tools like "swaret" and "slack-get" take the pain out of manual package management. |

| | LWN: A look at Slackware 10.0 |
| | Though Patrick Volkerding's Slackware wasn't the very first Linux distribution (it was originally based on the SLS distribution) it has outlived all of its predecessors. | | | Slackware still includes a wide array of window managers and desktop environments, and tends to stay on or close to the cutting edge there. | | | Most new slackware packages are also careful not to clobber configuration files and instead deposit a.new file slongside. |

| | Welcome to ManicGeeks.com |
| | In an era of computing in which ease of use and configuration is considered to be of utmost importance, some would consider distros such as Slackware to be hopelessly out of mode. | | | However, this release of Slackware is not without its problems in execution. | | | This is a pretty big deal, because there are currently no binary packages available for mod_perl for 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. | | | The goal of this document is to configure a system with software RAID 1 (mirroring) arrays under recent releases of Slackware. | | | Use of mbr is the other way to force writing to the MBR of device 0x80. |

| | I'll be honest and say that I spent some time with past versions of Slackware configuring X windows to exactly suit my needs and now simply keep my old config file backed up, always a good idea. | | | As far as I can see, there's isn't any huge changes over the 10.0 release, which is to be expected, but it's the quality of the updates and the stability of slackware that always wins me over. | | | Other popular distributions will dazzle you with cutting edge releases of more software and window manager options than you can shake a 'Linux in a Nutshell' book at. |
