You mean Slackware is still around?? Yikes - have not thought of that for over 10 years. I used Debian or a derivative when I was playing with Linux in the mid to late 90's - very solid, albeit more for the dweebs among us, perhaps. And Debian is not available that I know of officially on POWER chips. Is Slackware?

Happy New Year!

Don't be frightened, Joe, but do use slackware instead of fedora. With
slackware, I've found plenty of stuff that I misunderstood, but never
anything that really didn't work. I can't say the same thing for fedora.
I'm a former redhat customer, and it still makes little beads pop out on
my forehead.
