Re: Salix Xfce 15.0 is released!
FLATPAK! DEFINITELY a perfect addition for us "lazy slackers"! Some years back I remember struggling to install Blender.. today.. Flatpak install! Same with other applications like Bitwig for music production. Very grateful!

Re: Salix Xfce 15.0 is released!
I have been a Salix user since 2012. Started out with the Ratpoison edition just to feel like a pro :lol: XFCE after that. Just upgraded with a new old HP laptop, and gave Slackware KDE a spin before I installed the latest Salix 15.0 XFCE. For me, this is all I need and want for a home PC. A big tha...

Re: Salix Xfce 15.0beta1
Hello! Awesome to see Salix going to 15.0! I am testing the 64bit iso, with an efi laptop. I have tried to follow this: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/using-pipewire-instead-of-pulseaudio-in-slackware-15-a-4175693980/ to see if I can get pipewire working. I notice that Salix i...

It just keeps working!
This is a boring update - Salix just keeps working faithfully on my HP ProBook 6570b. Never any trouble! My favorite applications are Inkscape, Ardour, Shotcut and Blender. I use Claws for email, and sometimes Mutt for automated bulk mail to a mailing list. Salix is awesome.

Re: Blender 2.8
...I assume you meant the package with the executable file. Yes, definitely the easier way!

Re: Blender 2.8
Thanks for the reply, and happy new year.
I appreciate the tip, I might just do that, even if it seems to work at the moment. But I have never tried to install anything that way before, so I must read myself up a bit on how to do that.

Re: Blender 2.8
SOLVED
This post can be deleted, it was posted in the wrong place too, probably But it did work, if anyone else was wondering... With my install I had to install tbb in addition to the dependencies mentioned on Slackbuilds.org.

Blender 2.8
Have anyone tried to install the newest version of Blender? I use Salix 14.2 xfce with the "huge" kernel. Does anyone know if there are any reasons why it should not be compatible? I don't have a graphics card on my laptop, by the way. I am planning on installing the dependencies and packa...

More info on this thread
https://docs.slackware.com/studioware:tips_and_hints This article taught me a few things about allowing real time scheduling, making memory available, and making the processor(s) perform well for different music software that need it. Therefore I want to pass it on to other Slackers that may need it...
