Slackware 13.0 RC1 has been released. Or tagged. Or whatever you'd call it in the Slackware world. "The TODO isn't entirely empty here, but it's pretty much down to minor nits, and so we're going to call this release candidate #1 and (mostly) freeze further updates unless they happen to fix problems. Regarding the kernel, 2.6.29.x has been well tested with this userspace and seems like the best choice to ship for production use. Perhaps we can put something else (at least source and configs) in /testing, though."

You want the latest and the greatest in software (KDE4) but you refuse to match it with the decent hardware (256MB RAM)? Guess you have to stick with software that matches with the capabilities of your hardware.
Dude, since when did I say I *wanted* KDE4? I still have yet to try it--even with a more powerful machine--and come away saying, "man, I like this better than KDE3..." I'm just not impressed, and still would much prefer to run KDE3. Also, not having the money for a new machine is not "refusing" to match hardware. Hardware upgrades? Hah, this thing's honestly not worth putting any more into at this point, except possibly a memory upgrade--but even those are prohibitively expensive with the current conditions. I've already fed it loads of money, and it's just getting flakier.
