It made Maine a free state and Missouri a slaves state. It also made a line right at the bottom of Missouri. Any state on the top of that line is a free state and anything under is a free state
that doesn't really solve the problem of slavery though

actually yes, it's called the compromise of 1850. It added California as a free state . Utah and New Mexico were added as territories and they could choose if they wanted slavery or not. It made slave trade in Washington dc illegal. The problem with texas land dispute was resolved. Finally the fugitive slave act became stricter.
is their any other laws?
