[CS-FSLUG] SLAX 4.1.1

[Eduardo Sanchez]

The usual old-school way to apply updates to your slackware distro was 
to watch the slackware changelog for updates or subscribe to the 
slackware-announce mailing list.

Now there are several apt-get like frontends. I use swaret 
(http://www.swaret.org) almost all the time. Simply excellent.

Blessings,
Eduardo
