Freshly baked slackware

I typically run into three problems with a fresh install of slackware (all of two times!!)
1. Anyone (other than root) out there?
useradd <myname>
passwd <myname>
Typically, I leave my home is installed on a separate unperturbed partition, so to link it up, I simply re-add my old username.

2. Volume volume people!
Run alsamixer and turn on your speakers :)

3. Wireless networking
