	Slackware-tan ~~mainly~~ personifies both Slackware Linux, and Softlanding Linux Systems, which Slackware is descended ~~from~~. 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 distros; ~~but~~ criticized ~~for~~ ~~doing~~ so at ~~the~~ ~~cost~~ of ~~user~~ ~~friendliness.~~		Slackware-tan personifies both Slackware Linux and Softlanding Linux Systems, the early distribution from which Slackware is descended. Slackware is noted for being built on the KISS (Keep it simple, stupid) principal, and is lauded by advocates as being transparent, flexible and the most Unix-like of the Linux distros. It is criticized by some as lacking user-friendliness and has a reputation for being a "difficult" distro.

	The fanon Slackware-tan design is the design drawn by Juzo-kun; wearing gray overalls and a black shirt, sometimes carrying tools, a spear, and/or a pipe (the later being a nod to Slackware Linux's mascot, a Tux with a pipe). She wears her brown hair in a braid.

	An ~~earlier~~, ~~but~~ one-shot design (by the artist and considered such by the fandom) depicts Slackware-tan as a waitress girl with short brown hair, carrying a tray and wearing rollerblades.		An early, one-shot design (by the artist and considered such by the fandom) depicts Slackware-tan as a waitress girl with short brown hair, carrying a tray and wearing rollerblades. The Slackware-tan adopted by the fandom was originally drawn by the artist Juzo-kun; this Slackware-tan is depicted as having brown eyes and brown braided or ponytailed hair, wearing gray overalls and a black shirt, and sometimes carrying tools, a spear, and/or a tobacco pipe.

	Attitude-wise, ~~Juzo~~-~~kun's~~ ~~original design seemed to show her as~~ no-nonsense, utilitarian and intelligent, a ~~whiz~~ ~~with~~ ~~mechanical~~ ~~pursuits~~. ~~Later~~ ~~renditions~~ ~~also~~ ~~seem~~ to ~~convey~~ ~~she's~~ a ~~bit~~ ~~high-strung~~ ~~and~~ ~~takes~~ a ~~little~~ ~~getting~~ ~~used~~ ~~to,~~ ~~perhaps~~ as an in~~-joke~~ ~~referring~~ to ~~the~~ ~~Slackware~~ ~~Linux's~~ ~~less-than-user~~ ~~friendly~~ ~~nature.~~		Attitude-wise Slackware-tan is no-nonsense, utilitarian and intelligent, a genius mechanic and amateur engineer. She is somewhat high-strung and demanding, traits that scare away all but her most loyal friends and companions. She can become awkward and frenetic in social situations, especially when interacting with her much-fancied Unix-tans.

			===Family and relationships===
			Being the most Unix-like of the Linux distros, she loves the Unix-tans, admiring [[UNIX]] most of all in a fangirlish manner, contrasting with her usually no-nonsense attitude. This puts her at odds with some of the other Linux-tans she's affiliated with in the [[Linux Unix Consortium\|LUC]], who aren't so trusting of the Unices, or even outright hostile.

			She gets along best with Arch Linux-tan and Yggdrasil-tan and is antagonistic towards low-end distro-tans such as [[Linspire]] and [[Freespire]]. In her childhood, she was close to her twin [[SuSE\|SuSE-tan]], but is now ambivalent towards her, disagreeing with many of SuSE's decisions. She rivals Red Hat-tan and Debian-tan in power and influence.
