On the dark and fateful day, Sat, 28 Dec 2002 at 17:43 GMT,
IAintGetting...@yahoo.co.uk spewed forth the following rhetoric:
Why would you want to see a screenshot?? Every Linux distro *looks*
the same. It's what's inside that differs, and even that is mostly the
same although maybe compiled differently. If you want to see a screenshot
of *a* desktop, go to <URL:http://www.kde.org>, <URL:http://www.gnome.org>
or (my favorite) <URL:http://blackboxwm.sourceforge.net>. There are of
course plenty of others, find those yourself (google). If you want to see
the CLI, google for that too.

well, i felt like making shome screenshots, to show off two of my
slackware machines. this really shows the power of slackware.
on the following page, i've put a screenshot of slackware 9.0 beta
and slackware 8.1
i hope this can help you decide wether you will go for slackware or
not.

This isn't how it comes "out of the box" - it's my personal setup.
Dates are in the panel.

That is the key point. Asking for screenshots of Slackware is about
as sensible as to ask whether somebody has any photographs of
Do-It-Yourself room decorations since you are planning to decorate a
room yourself and would want to know in advance how it would look.

No, KDE used to come set up like that, & I have to customise it to get
it right again :). In KDE 3.1 the external taskbar is much bigger,
hope there'll be an option to resize it.

Yep. You can get it down pretty small (tiny) and even auto-hide it.

Er, do you already use Linux, if so then you don't need any screenshots on
the console, seen one console you have seen them all.
What screen shots of X with KDE or Gnome (or other windows managers), have a
look at the respective sites:-
Also have a look at http://themes.freshmeat.net.

What does the "unknown" mean after the i686?
The man page doesn't tell.
uname -m gives i686
and info uname says the last thing displayed is the machine, so what
is unknown?

Its been a great game. Got magicbane, silver dragon armor +3, 2 or 3
bags of holding, finished soko, the mines, the quest, and having fun.
If you will note, there are are two alters on this level. The top one
was crossalignd. I fixed that. The bottem one was a co-alinged
temple. Note there isn't a priest there. I killed him and pissed off
my god, and then I one upped it by sacrificeing him to my god. My god
was pissed. To say the least. But I am all good with him again after
much sacrificing. Damn this has been fun.
And a little centericq screenshot although this one looses something
without the color and ansi graphics so I have edited it sligtly for
presnttion here in ascii land and to remove any hard facts regarding
contact info for the people mentiond.

That's the default "host processor type", not to be confused with the
"machine type".
