["Anthony R. Mattke" <tonhe adelphia net>]

I'm still currently downloading the slackware-current direcotry (its at
about 1200 meg atm.. ) and i'm going to install that.. but i will still
be using garnome (installed to /usr/local/) for my main window manager..
The main reason being a nice build system that is easily upgradeable...

Thanks for the info on the thread..
