Cannot upload images to wordpress 3.4.2
 
Ok, I've scoured the internet looking for an answer to this and have yet to find one. I have a fairly new install of Slackware 14 (32 bit). I created all my mysql stuff, wordpress is running. Fantastic. Now comes the problem part: I simply cannot upload any images at all to the server. This is all running on my laptop, so I have access to everything. I created the wp-content/uploads directory, and chmodded 777 it. No dice. I've tried moving my uploads to another directory, still the same problem. Any help would be awesome.

edit: Hey, all right!! I got it to work. For some reason, the uploads directory has to be chowned to apache. Just a little
Code:

chown apache:apache uploads
and it worked.
