As stable or user friendly fedora and debian are, their whole structure due to the way they setup their ecosystem including their package management differ in how to change things system wide as you dont want to go too heavy on it to avoid breaking, especially if you tinker things to where you conflict with its package manegment. Aka your configs vs apts/dnf package managers configs, at some point a conflict will occur to where you will need to fix it.

Slackware lack of package managers creates the initial issue of well now i got to manually take care of the dependencies. However in exchange, the packages are close to the way they were initially developed and your config system wide has significant less competition on what happens to your configs systemwide.

You can make your debian or fedora your system, however slackware gives you that initial power out of the box hence its superb stability + even if i make a mistake i find slackware to be more forgiving to fix the issue.

I have an intel arc 380 gpu, i know slackware current has preconfigured kernel. I havent tried building my own kernel but would it be easier using preconfigured or just build it?

I know intel arc requires 6.2 kernel as the driver and i believe mesa 22(or newer) .

If i remember right, it takes a lot of resources to maintain a package manager, and the focus on slackware is to be on the improving the distro overwall hence its superb stability. Community members have created sbopkg + sbotools to create a 3rd party package manager if you want to go that route on slackware. Sbotools would be the gui to take care of depenencies

Ive tried magic earth while traveling. Though the ui is nice compared to osmand, i agree that there are extra steps. Sometimes i had to input the address of the place i found to an address to coordinate converter to plug that into Magic earth. I get the auto update maybe to save resources while using the app or prevent the app from rebooting/refreshing map after update.

Thanks for the info.

That sounds pretty good, not sure if you used it for navigation, but if you did how is that on the phone? Does it run hot or average temp?

I ended up with several blank dvds, i had no idea what i would to use them. Then i randomly decided to burn iso images to them for when i distro hop. Any older version i just threw out and replaced with newer version.

I pretty much grind for loot and get the cards that way. I can still get pretty far without putting in a dime. I like the voices of the cast returning to hear them in the game is super nice.
