Hello All.
Those of you who are subscribed to Slackware-announce will have received the
following announcement, for any others who could possably be thinking of
slackware here is the news, or at least the first part of the message.
The first major release for 2001, Slackware Linux 8.0 continues the
Slackware tradition of simplicity, stability, and security. It is the
essential Linux distribution from the team that knows Linux inside and
out. Among the many program updates and distribution enhancements,
you'll find the two most advanced desktop environments available today:
KDE 2.1.1 (with Qt 2.3.1 providing support for anti-aliased fonts) and
GNOME 1.4 (with one of the largest collections of pre-compiled GNOME
applications available). We include the stable Linux 2.2.19 kernel as
well as the latest 2.4.5 Linux kernel, bringing you advanced
performance features such as the ReiserFS journaling filesystem and
kernel support for XFree86's DRI (the Direct Rendering Interface) that
brings high-speed hardware accelerated 3D graphics to Linux.
Have fun.
