Vector Linux is a distribution based on the oldest Linux distribution available today - Slackware. It comes in two flavours - a freely downloadable ISO 'lite' version (which I used for this review) and a Deluxe CD edition which can be ordered from www.vectorlinux.com. The deluxe edition includes extras such as Gnome and KDE, as well as a whole pile of extra software.

So far I think vector is a good distro, I just had 2 small problems.
1) It seems to me that I can't login as root using the graphical login. I'll try again since I re-installed to try and clear up some changes I made.
2) Despite the great hardware detection it insists on loading X in 800x600 instead of 1024x768.
Both are problems that I can probably fix with a little editing. I've since dled Slack also, really just trying to find a distro I want to use.
