There is a program available on ubuntu available to cast from linux to chromecast:
http://mkchromecast.com/
from this previous link, the information is given for debian and for archlinux. It might be possible to work it out for slackware.
Packages for mkchromecast ubuntu are available here:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keyw ... chromecast
these might be use to build mkchromecast with deb2xzm

Finally, I have returned the chromecast gadget. At home we have a supposedly intelligent LG TV which connects to the internet. Has any of you have a method other than mkchromecast to cast from their linux box to their intelligent TV?

Porteus is proud of the FASTEST KDE ever made.....(take akonadi, nepomuk and soprano out and you will have a decent OS).
