Thanksbut is it realy that hard to install stuff in slackware?

Easier than most GUIs.

Give it a month of playing with packages, even installing from most sourcecode is easy. (Although, I have had issues with >12.0 as of late myself.)

You have a couple options for installing applications on your Slackware system.

1) use the Slackpkg package manager application from the command line. For info on Slackpkg:

Code:

$ man slackpkg
2) you can build applications from SlackBuild scripts available at SlackBuilds.org or use the sbopkg app available there.

Of course, as with any distribution of Linux, you can build from source, also.

Have fun with it. :)
