No, I don't think that there should be an option to delete posts. If everybody could do delete posts (even just his own) a lot of unwanted and possibly malicious stuff could happen. Posting something is no different from shouting it out in a public place. Except in some cases nobody would stop you f...

That's a bad solution as it omits hidden files. Have a look at this article: http://www.sant-media.co.uk/2010/05/linux-moving-the-contents-of-one-directory-into-another/ The solution for just copying the contents with cp: cp -a /old/. /new This actually copies the ./ directory to new/./ but as new/....

The business with the trailing slash is indeed confusing, and the issue occurs with cp and mv too. As I remember, those two commands treat the issue differently. I get it wrong all the time. No, actually not. The trailing slash is almost completely meaningless with cp and mv. If the destination of ...

Sounds like you unintentionally enabled numlock. There should be a num key (combination) on your keyboard to toggle it.

You probably have acpi handlers setup like so (/etc/acpi/acpi_handler.sh): #!/bin/sh # Default acpi script that takes an entry for all actions IFS=${IFS}/ set $@ case "$1" in button) case "$2" in power) /sbin/init 0 ;; *) logger "ACPI action $2 is not defined" ;; esac ;...

There are basically two ways. Either you setup a local personal repository (on your local machine or in some network location) and add it to your package manager with higher priority (CUSTOM). Then any package you add to that repository will take precedence over Slackware and Salix packages. The str...

I think 14 is a good number. It's an important age in many legislations linked to several rights/duties like being able to sign a contract. So how to better show the maturity of Slackware. Apart from that I think 14.13 would be nice to show that there is no need to evade the number 13 by using it ye...

I somehow missed that i486 actually has its own kernel-source package. The small _smp appended to the kernel version was the onldy small difference which I didn't catch.

Anyway repository is now updated accordingly and if you reinstall/upgrade the kernel-source-recent package it should work fine.

Two ideas:

• You need to enable smooth scrolling (Edit -> Settings -> Advanced -> General)
• Your graphic card or some other component can't cope with it (possibly too because a driver implements not all features/optimizations)

I don't know what you did. If you install stuff outside the package management only you can tell what you did. Unless you can tell me what you did and thus I know what's going on, I won't make blind suggestions what to do. So what did you do to get that 3.3.6 kernel?
