OK, I got everything reinstalled two days ago (been busy here). I'm using Slackware stable with the Amd driver I can't the Amd driver to work with Slackware current I think it's a kernel issue. Anyone using it with current have a way to fix it ?. Only other issue I have is when I select log out at the KDE menu it logs of kde, but also kills X. doesn't take me back to the logon menu.

Quiken I am glad you have it up and running and I am sure if you do a search around here you will see the ATI driver issue here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...gfault-943527/

What?! I thought it was unbreakable. I had a C programming assignment once and wrote some faulty code. This code ran perfectly on Slackware, but not when I compiled it on any other system. I only tested it on Slackware so I didn't notice, but the teacher was running Ubuntu so he complained immediately. I discovered it too when I tested it on Debian. A "rational" person would probably say that it was because of the GCC version difference or configure settings, but I know better... it is the paranormal power of Slack.

It can also be used for blacklisting KDE packages that you don't want to see in 'install-new', if you didn't install KDE.

By the way, another way of identifying a Slackware package is 'tar -tf <file>.tgz'. In a Slackware package you will see FHS install paths, like:

There is also an 'install' directory containing (at least) a 'slack-desc'.

I was able to get everything working after I patched the kernel with info I found on another site. Thanks for the help all
