If you're able to use the mail system I guess you have succesfully made a connection to the internet. But I don't get it, Slackware 8.0 has XFree86 4.1.0 on the install disc, did you install it? I'm using Slack myself. If you installed it, log in as root and type "XFree86 -configure", then "xwmconfig" and chose a window manager (I like gnome and windowmaker), then fire it up with "startx". Netscape and galeon come with Slack as well, maybe you run pkgtool and check whether u inatlled them.
