Updates with kernel...
Does slack use an update service like 'emerge' in gentoo? I have a somewhat fresh installation of slack 9.1 (i think) and I would like to update my system to the new kernel and update various other system progs like my windowmanagers. Also, how do I make it possible to startx into EITHER Kde or fluxbox depending on my mood?

its called swaret, if its not installed , download from swaret.org, install
pico /etc/swaret.conf.new change version from 9.1 to current save as swaret.conf exit to run, swaret --update swaret --upgrade |
Take care, if you're on slack 9.1, then you should update the Kernel, as well as lilo...
To do that, just comment out the Exclude kernel (and lilo) in /etc/swaret.conf and after you do update the kernel packages, MAKE SURE you type lilo before you reboot, otherwise you're in for trouble |
