For those hoping to update to slackware-current (2.6.33.1) and make use of alienBOB’s KDE SC 4.4.2 with PolicyKit packages, you need to be aware of one caveat. If you use the proprietary NVidia driver, you will need to blacklist the nouveau driver in order for it to work.
/etc/modprobe.d/nouveau.conf
# Blacklisting nouveau to fix NVidia
blacklist nouveau
blacklist nouveau
UPDATE: 20100428
A package has been added to slackware-current to do this for you:
x/xf86-video-nouveau-blacklist-noarch-1.txz
