| In the "Why doesn't Slackware Linux have my favourite "XYZ" software included in the CD/DVD?", delete this sentence: "Be it so, Slackware still packages a large number of commonly used software that are be needed by most users.", please. --- //[[nowbrians@yahoo.co.uk|Brian Lawrence]] 2012/08/27 02:39// |

| Ignore last remark, I'll edit that line. --- //[[nowbrians@yahoo.co.uk|Brian Lawrence]] 2012/08/27 03:03// |

| I can see a section dealing with the speed of Slackware boot up has been added. The author / poster may also consider mentioning the Lilo's ''compact'' option. |

| > I added that section. Please feel absolutely free to improve upon it. I myself don't use LILO, so I didn't know the options in LILO. Anybody with knowledge of LILO may improve it as far as I am concerned. --- //[[wiki:user:vharishankar|Harishankar]] 2012/08/31 19:48// |

| Harishankar, have you then removed the section? I can't see it |

| > No it's still here: [[slackware:faq#why_does_slackware_take_so_long_to_boot_up|Why does Slackware take so long to boot up?]] I see that somebody else has added more content to it. --- //[[wiki:user:vharishankar|Harishankar]] 2012/09/01 00:55// |

| I have added a list of names mentioned by Patrick in the LQ.org interview as present contributors. Please feel free to add names which I might have left out due to my ignorance. --- //[[wiki:user:vharishankar|Harishankar]] 2012/08/31 21:21// |

| In the section "Why doesn't Slackware's package manager do dependency handling?", change "number" to "amount" in "A significant number of Open Source software...". --- //[[wiki:user:brianl|Brian Lawrence]] 2012/09/01 03:15// |
| >I changed it to "several popular open source applications". Reads a bit better in my view. --- //[[wiki:user:vharishankar|Harishankar]] 2012/09/01 04:01// |
