Slackware 10.0 Officially Released

Posted by simoniker on from the not-so-slack dept.

BRTB writes "Slackware 10.0 is out! X.org 6.7.0, kernel 2.4.26 (2.6.7 optional), KDE 3.2.3, GNOME 2.6.1, GCC 3.3.4... it's all new, and just as stable as you'd expect from Slackware, if RC2 was any indication. There's an official announcement, as well as some ISO BitTorrent links, and a mirror list. Of course, the non-cheapskates among us should go buy the CD-set to support the project. Have fun, everybody..."

    Although, I'm sure Slack is the greatest it ever was, and won't let me down. If I had DSL, I would get it right away, but...56K doesn't believe in fast downloads. Yes, I'm still in the stone age.

    Slackware is what taught me about open-source and free software. I've been trying to teach others about it ever since. Somehow the concept of sharing has gotten so lost in the Christian community that it's taken a atheist to remind us what it is.
