there should be a LILO option to have a boot splash graphic that reads:
s14ckw4r3 13.37
1> n00b b00t (kde)
2> sl4ck3r b00t (xfce)
3? l33t b00t (CLI)

Maybe it will see the light of day on 29 March?

If not then, how about 5 April?

For future reference, since ethtool was upgraded to 2.6.36, its homepage is http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool/ not the gkernel sourceforge project, and gets upgraded along with the kernel, so latest version is 2.6.38

There have been quite a few changes so we will have one more release
candidate: Slackware 13.37 RC 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716.
Very close now! But we'll likely hold out for 2.6.37.6.
I like pi(e)

Is there anything special about 2.3.37.6?

There is yet one more 13.37 RC before the big release! This one is Slackware 13.37 http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&s...w=1280&bih=892

http://www.slackware.com/changelog/current.php?cpu=i386

EDIT: Crap! I missed the above posts about Slackware 13.37 pi !!!
So what will the final version number be then? Will it be pi to 1337 million decimal points perhaps???
