Shouldn't that also be the SysReq key instead of PrintScreen? They're
different keys on my keyboard.

Aha! /Another/ good point! The theory was sound though? ;)

If you're still using the CD's: /extra is on CD 4 (both in 13.0 as well
as 13.1).

From the page "Get Slack / Torrent files" about what is on WHICH disk
(in 13.1, the 13.0 page isn't there anymore):
> Slackware 13.1 x86 Install ISO disc 1 (A/AP/D/E/L/N, bootable installer, kernels, testing/, Slackbook)
> Slackware 13.1 x86 Install ISO disc 2 (F/K/T/TCL/X/XAP/Y, L source)
> Slackware 13.1 x86 Install ISO disc 3 (KDE/KDEI)
> Slackware 13.1 x86 ISO disc 4 (A/AP/D/E/F/installer source, extra/, pasture/, old Berkeley DB packages)
> Slackware 13.1 x86 ISO disc 5 (KDE/KDEI source)
> Slackware 13.1 x86 ISO disc 6 (K/N/T/TCL/X/XAP/Y source, USB and PXE installers)

Note that the old "source" disks aren't anymore (they're called just
disk 4 thru 6 now), some of the stuff migrated there from the first 3 disks.
But nowadays it is best to get the DVD image/iso instead, just a single
tree to mount/search.
