Review of Slackware 12.1
|
Think he was after a Windows style install !!
Anyway - he obviously didn't read the Slackware-HOWTO about adding users. |
Yeah, most do not read the supplied help files. I expect more from a reviewer. Atleast distrowatch did a decent review.

To the reviewer, please install Ubuntu immediately, and stop reviewing Slackware without reading a little bit beforehand, and stop complaining about things not being automated, some people like it that way, maybe because the automation is trying to guess what I want to do and just can't.
|
Maybe Slackware jsut really really likes me, but my automount works perfectly every time.
It's almost like it's magic. |
Lol...is that site a joke?
|
I remembered adding a user to plugdev from when I tried out Gentoo, so that wasn't an issue to me. It seems that he likes lots of things to be automatic and that's fine, but for people who like to get their hands a little dirty, Slackware is ideal.

I guess he didn't use the arrow key when he adduser to his system it seriously adds the groups for you. Also did anyone else notice sound worked out of the box. Small but significant things in 12.1, I really am impressed.

As for that article, everyone's entitled to their own opinion - even if it's the wrong one. Slackware suits me. |

All he proved was that he didn't RTFM. |
Oh..yah, thank God for (and the Slackware team) getting the sound to work automatically...
