In the process of working with slackware you will learn far more about linux than any of the "mainstream" distros. GUI configurators hold secrets, editing scripts and config files shows you the real deal. It is worth the effort. Check out the slack newsgroup alt.os.linux.slackware. Between the faq posted every day and the group archive you will find answers to most of your questions. Post to them or here (if you want a less hostile environment for other questions.
