I know this is old but for the record on my 2133 with the 13.0 release
1. Video
Dont install (or remove) the openchrome driver that comes with the distribution, I had a blank cursor of death with that one (this is not slackware related, it is the release driver. I got the same thing trying in arch and others). I got the openchrome driver straight from subversion and that worked beautifully
as per openchrome wiki:
svn checkout svn.openchrome.org/svn/trunk openchrome
(there is an http in front of the svn url but the forum wont let me put it in as i am new)
cd openchrome
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
make install (as root or sudo)
reboot (i'm lazy i just reboot to be sure I dont miss anything that needed restarting)
the resolution was correct out of the box with that driver
note: i have not done any performance testing, i find kde too slow to use but i suspect it can be pared down a bit (or the driver settings tweaked). Xfce and lxde are smooth and nice.
2. wifi
get b43-fwcutter and b43-firmware from slackbuilds for the wireless
they get detected fine after that so it is just a matter of configuring it in /etc/rc.d/inet1.conf or any other way you like
3. sound
worked out of the box
note: i have not tried the sound to external speaker, or the microphone in, which are notoriously hard/impossible according to the internet
4. webcam
not tried yet
5. bluetooth
not tried yet
6. power management (hibernate etc)
not tried yet, but since i never managed to make it work on anything I wont try
