| This distro was brought to my attention in the BN IRC room, and whilst my 
| distro hopping machine had difficulties with it (its a little anti social at 
| the moment) I gave it a run on one of the many machines dotted around my 
| house and found myself very surprised (pleasantly) by the results.  Its a 
| Slackware based distro, and in these days of MONO uncertainty and the ever 
| growing popularity of about 4 or 5 of the âbig nameâ distroâs, its nice to 
| break out of the mold and take a look at a lesser known option (sans MONO I 
| hasten to add).

Wolvix Linux 2.0 Beta 2 Review

,----[ Quote ]
| Wolvix is based on Slackware and, according to the Wolvix site, is geared
| toward the home user. Wolvix uses the lightweight Xfce desktop environment
| and provides a somewhat greater range of apps than some of the other
| distributions.

Test Driving Wolvix 2.0.0 Beta

,----[ Quote ]
| All in all, I really enjoyed testing this distribution. Not being a big fan
| of Slackware, I didn't expect to be so pleasantly surprised by some aspects.
| Also, Wolvix 2.0.0 makes it way easier to see what Slackware is about.
| Surely, there are still things that need to be polished, but I was very
| impressed with the up-to-date software selection and the easy install
| process. Hopefully, by the time Wolvix 2.0.0 final is released, all the
| inconveniences will be taken care of.
