A new extra version of SlackEX is ready. In this version I’ve replaced Xfce4 with Enlightenment 0.24.2 – latest version. I’ve also replaced kernel 5.9.1-exton with kernel is 5.9.6-exton.

Article 201114 about SlackEX Build 201112 at 9to5Linux.com by Marius Nestor (previously at Softpedia.com)
"SlackEX Linux developer Arne Exton informs 9to5Linux about the general availability of a new version of his Slackware-based that ships with the latest Enlightenment desktop environment by default. Based on Slackware 14.2, the new SlackEX Linux release drops the lightweight Xfce desktop environment for the even more lighter and beautiful Enlightenment desktop environment/window manager. In fact, SlackEX appears to be the only live system that uses the latest Enlightenment release, version 0.24.2.
But that’s not all that’s new in the latest SlackEX Linux release, which is now powered by the Linux 5.9 kernel series. This not only means better hardware support, but it also means you won’t find another Slackware-based live system running Linux kernel 5.9."
