ABOUT SlackEX Current/15.0 (Current - testing/development) Live System 64 bit - BUILD 250323 with the Xfce4 Desktop BACKGROUND Slackware is the first widely-used Linux system, which is still developing. Slackware has existed since 1993. In comparison with for example Ubuntu and Linux Mint, many people believe that Slackware is "difficult". Any novice can quickly learn to use Ubuntu they say. My remaster of Slackware Current (15.0), which I call SlackEX 15.0 Stable/Current 64 bit Linux Live System, is however just as easy to use as Ubuntu and/or Linux Mint. Some tend to complain that the Program Management in Slackware is awkward. That was perhaps earlier the case, but not anymore. NEWS ABOUT SlackEX BUILD 250323 with the Xfce4 DESKTOP (DE) A new version of SlackEX is ready. It is based on Slackware 15.0 Stable/Current released 220202 with Xfce4 as DE. The most important package installed is Refracta Snapshot. With that you can build your own Slackware 15.0 distribution. Xfce4 is one of Slackware's official Desktop environments. The other one is KDE. Kernel 6.13.7-amd64-exton is used in this SlackEX Build. To be able to use Refracta Snapshot you'll have to use said kernel. Otherwise you can (of course) replace "my" kernel with Slackware's original kernel. While running SlackEX Xfce4 in VirtualBox you can do so in full screen since VirtualBox Guest Additions are pre-installed. Watch this screenshot: https://slackex.exton.se/xfce4/slackex-xfce4-vbox-fullscreen-250323.jpg NOTE1: You’ll run SlackEX Build 250323 as the normal user user or as root. The password for root is root. The password for user is live. NOTE2: You can run SlackEX Build 250323 on UEFI and non-Uefi computers. You can also run SlackEX live super fast from RAM. ABOUT running SlackEX in RAM You can run SlackEX from RAM also when starting SlackEX in UEFI mode. The previous SlackEX versions could only run from RAM if they started in Legacy mode. So my advice is to run this version SUPER FAST from RAM! The best way to run a Linux Live System! When SlackEX has booted up you can remove/eject the USB stick or the DVD. MORE NEWS re. SlackEX Build 250323 1. The very nice icon theme Papirus is installed and used. 2. You can use Firefox for Netflix. 3. Samba works so that you can connect to your Windows computers in your Network. 4. I've installed the SLiM Login Manager in SlackEX Xfce4. PASSWORDS The password for user (ordinary user) is live. The password for root (superuser) is root. CONFIGURING X X is auto-configured during the boot from the DVD or USB stick. WiFi CONNECTIONS Just give your password and connect. DEFAULT LANGUAGE The default language (locale) is set to English. SUDO Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Mint and many other so-called beginner distributions (and other Linux systems) use Sudo to do something that requires root (superuser) privileges. There really is no need for a root password. "Examples of Command": sudo mkdir /usr/MyFiles. You can also directly become root with sudo su. I have installed the Sudo program in SlackEX. This means, among other things, that Linux users used to Ubuntu can identify with SlackEX. The ISO file is of 3440 MB.
