This is the first Slackware distro I've tried as well.    I was mainly 
looking for a speedy lightweight distro for some older hardware.  
OpenMotif (2.3.3) and libXP (1.0.1) do come up in the package list on 
VL-7.  For some reason the package manager was the hardest thing to 
find...but its there - GSlapt.
