I know this is really more of a site issue than a Slackware issue, but I wasn't real sure where else to ask..........
Why, when the forum autodetects my distro does it always show a penguin when I'm posting from my Slack box while mandriva or ubuntu always get detected? I see others with the blue Slack 'S' but both 13 and 13_64_current both show the penguin. It's not important at all, just wondering what I have to do to get my "Slackbadge" lol.........
P.S. please don't flame me for calling that a slackbadge!
The penguin is used when they detect your browser being run in Linux, but they can't identity the distribution.
See this old thread for a discussion about how to make the Slackware icon appear: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...slackware+icon
Basically, in Firefox open "about:config" and add a new string property called "general.useragent.vendor", and set it to "Slackware".
