User Reviews

  • What a good distro based on Slackware but this one is superior and without all the bloatware that come with Slackware, a simple task like installing Google Chrome works one million time better here. We most thanks the team behind this project and defintely will not hesitate to support 'em.
  • Excelente distribución, la uso en la casa y en el trabajo. Es estable, sólida, fluida, fácil de usar y con un rendimiento soberbio. La mejor distribución de Linux. Ojala tuviera al menos una variante más como KDE quizás.
  • It's a very good OS : lightweight , solid , fluid. Only one complaint: the lack of native apps, for example vlc media player.
  • Light and fast slackware version
  • Wiki needs updated to accurately reflect getting vbox additions working. IE: [COMMAND] sudo slapt-get -i kernel-huge kernel-modules kernel-headers kernel-firmware [COMMAND] sudo lilo -v [COMMAND] uname -r 4.4.157 [COMMAND] slapt-get --show kernel-huge | grep -e Name -e Version | awk '{print (dollar sign)3}' kernel-huge 4.4.157-x86_64-1 [COMMAND] slapt-get --show kernel-headers | grep -e Name -e Version | awk '{print (dollar sign)3}' kernel-headers 4.4.157-x86-1 [dollar signs prohibited in reviews]
