Latest News and Updates
An unexpected fifth release candidate of Slackware Linux 11.0 has been announced in the current changelog: "Slackware 11.0 release candidate 5. This is the last one, scout's honor." Last week has brought a fairly large number of updates, including a new Subversion 1.4.0 ("After a couple convincing assurances that this was a safe and ABI/API compatible upgrade, I decided to allow this upgrade."), an svn release of espgs 8.15.3 ("Building from svn fixes two critical problems: missing support for CJK, and not correctly printing umlauts with certain fonts."), security updates to Firefox, Thunderbird and SeaMonkey, as well as many rebuilds of existing package versions to fix bugs or add new functionality. As usual, there are no official ISO images released for download, but a good list of Slackware mirrors can be found here, while a recent unofficial CD image set built from the current tree is available here.
About Slackware Linux
The Official Release of Slackware Linux by Patrick Volkerding is an advanced Linux operating system, designed with the twin goals of ease of use and stability as top priorities. Including the latest popular software while retaining a sense of tradition, providing simplicity and ease of use alongside flexibility and power, Slackware brings the best of all worlds to the table. Originally developed by Linus Torvalds in 1991, the UNIX-like Linux operating system now benefits from the contributions of millions of users and developers around the world. Slackware Linux provides new and experienced users alike with a fully-featured system, equipped to serve in any capacity from desktop workstation to machine-room server. Web, ftp, and email servers are ready to go out of the box, as are a wide selection of popular desktop environments. A full range of development tools, editors, and current libraries is included for users who wish to develop or compile additional software.
