Excuse me for not being clear. I got the Slackware 9.1 CD set and
it works fine. I meant source code that isn't included, e.g. Squid,
wordnet, an office suite &c. E.g. what is on the freshmeat server.
This is not at all a complaint about too less software included in
the distribution. If sth. like CosCos doesn't exist, I'll invest
the time to download.

Thanks anyway,

erich

ps. Of course I read the news howtos, but formulating a clear request
(and in a not-my-mother-language) still requires some practice.
