After almost six years of development, Slackware Linux 15.0 was finally released this month. The oldest GNU/Linux distribution that still in maintenance emerge from its longest release cycle with a lot of improvements and cutting edge features. Slackware 15.0 installs Linux kernel 5.15.19 includes KDE Plasma and XFCE 4.16.0 (and other lighter window managers like fvwm, windowmaker, blackbox and my beloved fluxbox). PAM was officially adopted, as PipeWire (as an alternate to Pulseaudio), Wayland (as an alternate to X11) and Elogin (replacing ConsoleKit2). Patrick Volkerding and Slackware's development team seems to be accomplished their goal: release a modern distribution, yet loyal to KISS philosophy. Slackware stills a systemd-free distribution, suitable for desktop/laptop and server aplications on both 32bit and 64bit hardware, that respect the management decisions of users, and faithful to UNIX way of do it. You will find the official annoucement at:

For those who always ask: Slackware is dead. Long live the Slackware!
