Slackware

Is Slackware a good distro? Well, I am installing it now, no problems yet.

Si. Oui. Da.

Slackware 0wnz!

I like slackware because you actaully learn linux because you have to edit the config files and things like that.

I have been looking all over for it and can't find it. I e-mailed the LUG and no one replied :(

Slackware Packages

i though slackware never had packages it is just the source you have to compile. :)

They look like packages to me :huh:

Alright, I installed it. What do I put as darkstar login? It never had me create a username. I know I can login as root. Also, how do I run KDE on it once I login?

Try logging in as root then adding a user [man adduser]

I think doing a 'startx' will get you to kde if you set that as your default win manager

Not sure though, never used slack, hoping to soon

Ask LSA.

He is the Slackware Guru :)

When I type in man adduser, it says "No manual entry for adduser"

=Edit=
When I type startx, something weird happens... screen goes grey, and there is some strange stuff up top

No, i&#39;m a poser...I never even used it&#33;

I&#39;m on the trail though :lol:

EDIT:

OK OK, type in /usr/sbin/adduser

then look at the output and it should tell you the syntax

I&#39;m still thinking about your startx problem though
