Intrigued by the linux one is, in my opinion this is tervorite linux for me, because it looks cool GUI alias, but for me you know, for those of you who are curious about linux please try and feel the enormity, for infonya please read the following article.

Slackware Linux is a GNU / Linux, which is managed and developed by Patrick Volkerding. A distribution is a coherent collection of software that provides system GNU / Linux that can be used. Volkerding started using GNU / Linux because it requires a LISP interpreter for a project. At that time, the distribution of GNU / Linux is the dominant Softlanding System Linux (SLS Linux). Slackware Linux started as a private collection of patches done by Volkerding for SLS Linux. Slackware Linux version of the first publicly available release was 1.0, which was released on July 16, 1993.

In contrast with most distributions of GNU / Linux, Slackware Linux adheres to the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). This means that Slackware Linux does not have complex graphical tools to configure the system. As a result, the learning curve of Slackware Linux can be high for users of GNU / Linux and inexperienced, but capable of providing more transparency and flexibility. In addition, you can also get a deeper understanding of GNU / Linux distributions like Slackware Linux.

Another distinguishing aspect of Slackware Linux, who also "fit" with the KISS principle, the Slackware Linux package manager. Slackware Linux does not have a complex package manager like RPM or dpkg. Package is tgz (tar / gzip) normal, often with an additional installation script and a description file. For novice users tgz is much more powerful than RPM, and to avoid dependency problems. Another feature of the Slackware Linux initialization scripts are well known. In contrast with most distributions of GNU / Linux, Slackware Linux does not have a directory for each runlevel with symbolic links to services that should be executed or killed in that runlevel. Slackware Linux uses a simpler approach, where you can enable or disable services by twiddling the executable bit of the initialization script.

The packages in Slackware Linux are compiled with minimal modification. This means you can use most of the documentation of GNU / Linux in general.
