Slackware 12.2 Released

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the hiya-patrick dept.

pilsner.urquell submitted a quote from the announcement saying "Well folks, it's that time to announce a new stable Slackware release again. So, without further ado, announcing Slackware version 12.2! Since we've moved to supporting the 2.6 kernel series exclusively (and fine-tuned the system to get the most out of it), we feel that Slackware 12.2 has many improvements over our last release (Slackware 12.1) and is a must-have upgrade for any Slackware user."

      We can make it if we try, building castles in the sky; just the two of us, you and I.

    Make a typo entering your monitor's scan rate? Too bad. Try again from the beginning, or edit the file with vi.

    After procuring a new monitor, natch.

    Use a strong root password, DUH.

    The Bears and Elk up in canada cant hold down shift, so using any punctuation in the password will protect the computers from the majority of the animals.
