         Please when you request a disk please notify me as to the desired
CPU architecture 32 or 64 bit.
     I sent a reply to Ron and to the mailing list earlier but it has 
not shown
up on the list.   I am sending this to the mailing list and sent a 
separate note
to Ron.

     In other news I got a copy of Salix64-xfce-14.2 and have installed 
it to
the Dell test machine.  Anyone who wants to see what it looks like can
see this at least at the Sunday meeting.  Very clean visuals but some
problems with xfce and configuration of fonts used.  It is running an
earlier 4.4 kernel.  Grub2 finds it as Slackware.
