Updated: 01/31/2019 by Computer Hope

Based on the Slackware distribution of Linux and available in four versions: Standard, Light, Live, and SOHO (small office/home office), VectorLinux is for the x86 platform. Beginning with version 7, VectorLinux standard edition is also available for the x86-64 platform and is named VLocity64. VectorLinux uses .tlz packaging but can also support .tbz and .tgz as needed.

All versions of VectorLinux include two applications for system management:

  • VasmCC - An application that handles the system configuration.
  • Slapt-get (with Gslapt GUI (graphical user interface)) - An application that deals with software installation and uninstallation.
