Heh, funny, I was trying to find the Slackware x86_64 ISO on the HTTP/FTP mirror page (the torrent wouldn't work for me ), but I gave up...

What I'm doing now: being amazed that the webcam in my laptop works...out of the box!

I just went into GNOME MPlayer, went to Open->TV->Open Analog TV, and there I was!

http://slackware.mirrors.tds.net/pub/slackware/?C=M;O=D Enjoy. I've already got the ISO's thanks to AlienBOB's mirror-slackware-current script.

Thanks, but I already found the 64-bit ISO on another mirror...turns out I just wasn't looking hard enough.

What I'm doing now: getting ready to try out the new Slackware64 in a VM.

Getting close to the end of the install as I write this post

EDIT: Just finished, but it hangs when I try to mount the Guest Additions image

EDIT EDIT: Okay, never mind, it's going now...

I couldn't stand it that hot, 17 here. Was in the low 20's yesterday, but it's cooled off now.

I wasn't able to get it because it is so long that it continues under the "Friends" panel.

I might just view the page source to see.
