Slackware, Slax 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.

Just make sure you always do a "./configure --prefix=/usr" instead of a simple "./configure" because some apps like python-gtk bindings don't like getting installed on teh default /usr/local/. That path is on the $PATH but these bindinds require to be on /usr so always-always do your configures with --prefix=/usr
