Distribution Release: Slackware Linux 10.1 |
 |
Slackware Linux 10.1 has been released: "That's right, the newest release of Slackware, version 10.1, is ready to go. My sincere thanks go out to everyone who helped out this time around when I really needed it. Highlights of the 10.1 release include the Linux 2.4.29 kernel (with Linux 2.6.10 as an alternate choice in /testing), X11R6.8.1 from X.Org, Mozilla 1.7.5, KDE 3.3.2, and Xfce 4.2.0. For a complete list of changes since Slackware 10.0, check out the Slackware 10.1 ChangeLog. Read the official announcement here. To order the official release of Slackware or other Slackware products (and help support the Slackware project), visit the Slackware store. This support is also especially appreciated this time to help offset the costs of my unexpected medical 'vacation'." The Slackware mirrors are still in the process of being updated, but you can download the two binary ISO images via BitTorrent: slackware-10.1-install-d1.torrent (634MB) and slackware-10.1-install-d2.torrent (644MB).
