    and it contains the Linux kernel 2.4.29/2.6.10

    I personally, have no problem with the kernel choice. They shipped 2.4.26 with 10.0 as it is more stable

  2. I suggest you buy it by GauteL · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Patrick Volkerding, the heart and soul of Slackware is sick, and have requested that users of Slackware buy it to help cover his medical expenses.

    He doesn't ask for charity, only that people who use it, actually BUY it instead of just relying on BitTorrent.

    Personally I don't use Slackware, but if you are a user, you know what to do.
