slackware help resources

Anyone care to reference me to some really good slackware-specific documentation or help resources? I'd like to know a bit about the specifics of that distro and find that their online resources are quite a bit lacking. LDP is a bit generic for slack-specific things too, IYKWIM.

Actually LQ is trying to implement or going to have a tutorial section on the site. I personally am working on Slackware specific tutorials starting with a Installation and Configuration tutorial and then from there might work on others that are specific to Slack.
Personally when I try to look for other specifics for Slack, I tend to find the best from searching google..

also to add, when I find the time and out of school, I was planning on turning one of my sites into a Slack specific help site hopefully one day.

do you happen to have a link to the config guide up anywhere? the installation itself is intuitive enough in itself, but things like how to manage the rc stuff and other distro-specific features would be nice.

not sure of any off top of my head.. but that is one thing i want to include sooner or later.. try to cover many different specific topics with slack.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for. I printed it off this morning and just browsing through it gave me some lacking confidence to give it another try tonight. I am totally green to Linux, but I do love a challenge. Good luck
