Re: Hello..

@novrexi: I know a Finnish Salix user from the east. I've heard, that Finnish people always go crazy if there is another Finn around in the wide wide world (rare occation).

Re: Hello..

Good to hear. Traditionally, saunas are properly taken in Finland, and there must be enough water so that you don't run out right away :lol:

Hello..

Hello everybody! I've been a dedicated Debian user for over 10 years, and previously I don't think there was any other distro until I found Salix. Great distro, fast, everything works as it should. I'm from Finland and the question is, are there other Finnish-speaking people here?

I would be more than grateful if you could do it. 8-)

Free linguistic software and data for Finnish

I noticed that Salix or slackware's package sources found an important for us Finns, i.e. voikko proofreading. Would it be possible to get one in package sources? Here's a link to that site where you can find all the information etc.. https://voikko.puimula.org

Re: Hello everybody

Hi novrexi , Welcome to Salix. Salix works in a stable cycle, (such as Slackware 15.0) normally "only" security patches are applied, but there are also program versions updates and also some add programs. You can follow the changelog, for instance: http://slackware.uk/salix/x86_64/15.0/Ch...

Hello everybody

I have not used a Slackware-based Linux distribution before. I used Debian for over 10 years, but I wanted a change and thought I'd try Salix. The installation was straightforward, there was nothing surprising. The big confusion was how fast this is. The applications open immediately, the Theme is g...
