Table Notes and Explanations

(Please refer to the table below.)

To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.

Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.

Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

I'm a business consultant in Japan, currently in my 50s, with a background in network engineering. I've been using Ubuntu for nearly a decade, having switched all my home computers from Microsoft Windows. Testing Slackware for a few weeks as a replacement for Ubuntu has been quite a revelation. Surprisingly, adapting the system to the Japanese language was super easy and straight forward. Despite not having changed much since I first encountered it in the 1990s, the modern Slackware is running significantly faster and more smoothly than Ubuntu, after a bit of initial troubleshooting. The sense of control over the system is palpable, even though I've only gone through the basic routines of `sudo slackpkg update` and `upgrade-all`, and installed a few SlackBuild applications as an experience. This feeling of transparency and control is something I’ve never experienced with more closed-off distributions. I am grateful to the developers and the community, and I hope the distribution continues to thrive.

I'm using Slackware-current on my main desktop and Slackware 15.0 (with Salix third-party repos) on my two laptops, and they all function as they need to be. Slackware is Linux as it was meant to be: minimal, old school, and portable. You can make it into your very own OS if you'd like, or just accept the defaults. What makes this better than Debian or Arch is that I can tell the system what I want and don't want on my system. They also never went along with the Systemd scam, as far as I can tell, and Elogind is there if I want to use desktop environments (I use i3wm, which doesn't need any of that). Newer packages can be built from SBO (SlackBuilds). No problems being on the newer 6.10 kernels.

I highly recommend Slackware and Slackware-based distros if you're a long-time Linux/Unix-like user who's ready to end the distrohop once and for all. Debian and Arch are too politically corrupt, whereas we Slackware users rely on each other as a COMMUNITY. Think that's the real dividing line, and it shows. We must thank Patrick Volkerding and his co-developers for continuing to publish only the highest-quality open-source software!

I am still using 14.2 version (have version 15 on another partition), it runs fine like an old knitting machine. Of course I now have to update packages manually, like firefox, openoffice, palemoon ..., thats not a problem, and unlike slackware 15 where I have some issues due to the graphics being too bright or something, I can keep using this version with not many vision problems - its a great distro, long live slackware 14.2.

I have been using slackware since version 9.1, got of a cover of a magazine here in the UK - its never failed me.
