Gnubie Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 Has anyone tried this and can offer an opinion of it? As I understand it is a more userfriendly version of slackware, but how much user friendly is it? Since in slackware you have to edit everything via text files it is way beyond my expertise. If college linux has automated hardware detection then it may be worth trying. :? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 I don't think that it is much more user friendlier than Slack, they just addedd some extra packages on top of I believe Slack 8.1?? College Linux has been working on 2.5 FOREVER, It almost sounds like it feel apart. College 2.3 uses old glibc and a bunch of other stuff. I would use Slack 9.1 instead. It installs and finds all my hardware on a laptop (Toshiba Tecra 8100) & a home brew box that has different stuff in it. You could always use "webmin" & "linuxconf" for more gui tools if you don't feel comfortable with cli and text files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
