My husband hooked me up on Slackware almost three months ago (he used to run Slackware in the '90s). While I use a large range of OSes on a daily basis, when I am under Linux I now prefer to use Slackware. This is my mini-article with thoughts on Slackware 9.1 after using it for three months on and off. Ten screenshots are included.

But that's the point I did on the article: There are not big problems with dependancies on Slackware! Exactly because the system doesn't do dep checking the developers are always careful to provide everything that's needed! Except the GnuCash installation which was a dep nightmare, I never had any other problem with Slackware and I have installed many stuff the past few months.

Besides, Swaret now DOES dependency checking.
