DV Befor any tries to flame in here... non of the existing gnome-setups for slackware out there follow my needs so a selfmade script for building a core gnome only was worth the work...

Maybe not the purists no, but a lot of people are using 2.6 kernels and having great success. All my dedicated colocation machines run on 2.6. Yes at least *I* can say its stable, I cant speak for everyone else.

I'm sure he has a good reason to keep old kernel. Anyway, untill he moves to 2.6x and glibc 2.4x I'll keep playing with debian sid. _________________

He offers a 2.6 in testing, of course not always up2date, but someone who needs always latest bleeding edge kernel should be able to compile himself. And the others can stick with a testing 2.6 and those who do not need a 2.6 can stick with default kernel. DV

Purchasing here not only supports the Slackware project since we are an authorized reseller but also supports us. Not to mention you can save a couple bucks in the process. _________________ http://www.linuxpackages.net

Yup, if you read the slackware-current changelog, you'll know exactly what will be in 11.0.

For the last number of releases there haven't really been shocking developments in the packaged software either, no real need to add something or make big changes. Gtnx Marcel

I am also Slack user since Slack 9.0 but I don't see any changes since 9.0. Only new packages, so many users abandon Slack. I still stay on Slack...
