Cool Dan.  Have you installed it yet?

Curious to know how it deals with built-in wireless devices on laptops.

I have installed it on a test machine (desktop), and had no problems although I really haven't *used* it much yet.

I'm hopeful to find some time this weekend to install on my main laptop.  I don't expect to have any problems with wireless, all previous versions of Slack have worked fine in that regard.  I use the 'wicd' network manager for laptop wireless, and highly recommend it.  It's in the /extra directory of Slackware...

Regards,
Dan
