However, the problem that I run into is that I don't know what packages contain what. Try to click on the description information, and I get "File not found" in Opera. And "Netscape is unable to find the file or directory named /pub/slackware/slackware-current/slackware/gtk1/diskgtk1." in Netscape. This is for Slackware current. Now, the kicker.... Try to find something for Slackware 8.0 on the i386 port. Go ahead, try it. It comes back with: Sorry; version 8.0 of Slackware Linux does not exist for the Intel architecture. Please return to Package Browser to verify your selection. Hmm, doesn't exist? Then what the F*** am I running on all my Intel machines with Slackware Linux on them?? It sure as hell isn't 7.1. Yes, I know 8.0 is the current release. But I've always taken "current" as being the next release they are working on. I like Slack, better than any other distros I've tried: Mandrake, SuSe, RH. I don't know a whole lot, but I prefer it over the others. However, it's really starting to tick me off that I'm running into these issues with Slack. Yes, I know they've run into problems lately... Slack used to have a "forum" site, but it appears that they've removed it. The more I look at Debian, the more I'm beginning to really want to load it. Shawn
