Among the many program updates and distribution enhancements, you'll find two of the most advanced desktop environments available today: 
Xfce 4.2.2, a fast and lightweight but visually appealing and easy to use desktop environment, and KDE 3.4.2, the latest version of the award-winning K Desktop Environment.

Slackware uses the 2.4.31 kernel bringing you advanced performance features such as the ReiserFS journaling filesystem, SCSI and ATA RAID volume support, SATA support, and kernel support for X DRI (the Direct Rendering Interface) that brings high-speed hardware accelerated 3D graphics to Linux. Additional kernels allow installing Slackware using any of the journaling filesystems available for Linux, including ext3, ReiserFS, IBM's JFS, and SGI's XFS. For those Slackware users who are anxious to try the new 2.6.x kernel series, it is fully supported by the system. A precompiled Linux 2.6.13 kernel, modules, and source code are provided (along with complete instructions on how to install the new kernel). A bootable 2.6.13 kernel ("test26.s") with support for most SCSI, RAID, and SATA controllers is integrated into the installer.

From the beginning, Slackware has offered a stable and secure Linux distribution for UNIX veterans as well as an easy-to-use system for beginners. Slackware includes everything you'll need to run a powerful server or workstation. Each Slackware package follows the  setup and installation instructions from its author(s) as closely as possible, offering you the most stable and easily expandable setup.

Here are some of the advanced features of Slackware 10.2:

- Runs the 2.4.31 version of the Linux kernel from ftp.kernel.org.
Special kernels were prepared to support hardware such as SCSI controllers, SATA controllers, USB keyboards and mice, parallel-port IDE devices, IBM PS/2 machines with the Microchannel bus, and even speech synthesizers providing access to Linux for the visually impaired community. The performance of the 2.4.x kernel series along with Slackware's track record of careful attention to system security make it the perfect choice for running your production servers.

- As an alternate choice, Slackware 10.2 includes Linux 2.6.13
source, kernel modules, and binary packages, along with the mkinitrd tool and instructions on using it to install the new kernel (see /boot/README.initrd). When running a 2.6 kernel, Slackware supports udev. This is a system for creating devices in /dev dynamically, greatly reducing device clutter and making it easy to see what devices are actually present in the system.

- System binaries are linked with the GNU C Library, version 2.3.5.
This version of glibc also has excellent compatibility with existing binaries.

- X11R6.8.2
This is the current release of the X.Org Foundation's X Window System. The 6.8.2 version is a new release that includes additional hardware support, functional enhancements and bug fixes.

- Installs gcc-3.3.6 as the default C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran-77, and Ada 95 compiler. gcc-3.4.4 is available as an alternate choice.

- Support for fully encrypted network connections with OpenSSL, OpenSSH, and GnuPG.

- Apache 1.3.33 web server with Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) support, SSL, and PHP.

- PCMCIA, CardBus, and APM support for laptops. (pcmcia-cs-3.2.8).
Slackware also now includes hotplug support. This locates and configures most hardware automatically as it is added (or removed) from the system. It also loads the kernel modules required by sound cards and other hardware at boot time.
