Slack 8.1 is all I need at the moment.
Two reasons to stick with 8.1 rather than moving on to 9.0:
1. gcc 2.95.3: gcc 3.x doesn't like too many programs(source)
2. libraries for gnome 1.X (even though I don't use Gnome,
lots of apps need some gnome libs), and I don't really use
anything that requires Gnome2 stuff :}
And since I always roll my own kernels I thought that
omitting the kernel-source from 9.0 was pretty low :}
Cheers,
Tink
