Yet another one of Juzo-kun's ten Linux distro-tans, Slackware-tan personifies Slackware Linux, a popular distro descended from Softlanding Linux System. Slackware is noted for being built on the KISS (Keep it simple, stupid)principal. Slackware Linux is often advocated as being transparent and flexible, the most Unix-like of the Linux distos; but criticized for doing so at the cost of user friendliness.
Slackware-tan is seen as a no-nonsense, mechanic in overalls, sometimes carrying tools and a pipe. She wears her brown hair in a braid.
Attitude-wise, Juzo-kun's original design seemed to show her as practical and tomboyish.
