Slamd64

Fevereiro 28, 2006

I’ve been testing Slamd64 on my new Pentium 4 EM64T, as a Slackware user, I can’t live without it’s simplicity. With it, I can join the slackware simplicity with the speed of 64bits.

It’s a great distro, but I’ve got some problems with the Reiserfs4 (you can choose this filesystem during the install process), the system was too slow, and the netconfig doesn’t work, it tries to set your NIC as a 3com.

The Kde 3.5 it’s very fast, but i couldn’t run Amarok with it, it just returns me lib errors.

I give these distro a 9 !!
