It's true! Slackware 13.37 has been released. Nearly a year in the
making, you will appreciate the performance and stability that can
only come with careful and rigorous testing. Slackware 13.37 uses the
2.6.37.6 Linux kernel (hence our new $SLACKWARE_VERSION.
$KERNEL_VERSION naming system used for this release ;-), and also
ships with 2.6.38.4 kernels for those who want to run the latest (and
also includes configuration files for 2.6.35.12 and 2.6.39-rc4). The
long-awaited Firefox 4.0 web browser is included, the X Window System
has been upgraded (and includes the open source nouveau driver for
nVidia cards). The venerable Slackware installer has been improved as
well, with support for installing to btrfs (for those who would like
to try a new copy on write filesystem), a one-package-per-line display
mode option, and alienBOB's big surprise: an easy to set up PXE
install server that runs right off the DVD!
More details may by found in the official announcement and in the
release notes. For a complete list of included packages, see the
package list.

Please consider supporting the Slackware project by picking up a copy
of the Slackware 13.37 release from the Slackware Store. The discs are
off to replication, but we're accepting pre-orders for the official 6
CD set and the DVD. The CD set is the 32-bit x86 release, while the
DVD is a dual-sided disc with the 32-bit x86 release on one side and
the 64-bit x86_64 release on the other. And, we still have T-shirts
(coming soon, a limited edition 13.37 release commemorative black T-
shirt with the classic Slackware logo on the front, and a "leet" LILO
bootscreen on the back) and other Slackware stuff there, so have a
look around. Thanks to our subscribers and supporters for keeping
Slackware going all these years.

Thanks are again due to the Slackware crew, the developers of
slackbuilds.org, the community on linuxquestions.org, Slackware IRC
channels, and everyone else who helped out with this release.

Have fun, and enjoy the new stable release!

Pat and the Slackware crew
