While this does not fill all cases, this does allow some of the more popular music players to use mp3's. libmad and libid3tag were added for dependancy reasons. mpg321-0.2.10-4.fr.x86_64.rpm xmms-mp3-1.2.7-2.x86_64.rpm libmad-0.15.1b-1.fr.x86_64.rpm libmad-devel-0.15.1b-1.fr.x86_64.rpm libid3tag-0.15.1b-1.fr.x86_64.rpm libid3tag-devel-0.15.1b-1.fr.x86_64.rpm IceWM A small and fast window manager. Good for slower systems or systems with not much memory.

It's license is found at misc/licenses/j2sdk-1.4.2-x.license To have all of it's links (including plugins) setup correctly you should also install java-1.4.2-sun-compat So the easiest thing to do is yum install java-1.4.2-sun-compat as it will automatically pull in j2sdk-1.4.2_08-fcs.i586.rpm j2sdk-1.4.2_12-fcs.i586.rpm This package provides JPackage compatibility symlinks and directories for Sun's JDK rpm MISC Added these rpms because they are important as RedHat removed them. gv-3.5.8-23.x86_64.rpm from Fedora Core 1 ncurses4-5.0-12.x86_64.rpm from Fedora Core 1 readline41-4.1-17.x86_64.rpm from Fedora Core 1 xcdroast-0.98a14-2.x86_64.rpm from Fedora Core 1 jpilot-0.99.6-1.x86_64.rpm from Fedora Core 1 cdda2wav-2.0-11.x86_64.rpm dependency of xcdroast Added these rpms because they are useful.

It is always pointing at the 3x area. yum.cron now checks to see how long the machine is been up If it is up less than 20 hours, it doesn't wait, but does the update. This uptime check was done to help laptops and other machines that might not be on long enough to wait for the random time. There is a fastbug repo area to correspond to the vendors fasttrack This is not on by default. bugfix-308 - reserved for packages from the next Update This is not on by default Removed nonsupported since these were merged with main rpm's Changed main server to ftp.scientificlinux.org Made it easier for users to change where their repository is. For yum.cron you now only have to change the files /etc/yum.d/yum.cron.primary and/or yum.cron.secondary You can add multiple repository in either file, or leave either blank. The servers in primary will be used in the order they are in the file. The servers in secondary will be used randomly. So if you are concerned about overloading your one server, leave the primary blank, and list all your servers in secondary, where they will be used randomly Fixed the names on yum.conf as well. now uses new feature "tolerant=1" for yum.cron openafs * openafs-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-client-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-compat-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-debug-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-devel-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-kernel-source-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-kpasswd-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-krb5-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * openafs-server-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-openafs-2.4.21-52.EL-1.2.13-15.17.SL.ia32e.rpm * kernel-module-openafs-2.4.21-52.EL-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-openafs-2.4.21-52.ELsmp-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm OpenAFS was updated to version 1.2.13 to fix various bugs. rpm spec file by Stephan Wiesand x86_64 aklog fix - Enrico M.V.

SL_enable_serialconsole This script makes all the changes necessary to send console output to both the serial port and the screen. This also creates a login prompt on the serial port and allows users to login at this prompt. Bug with the default serial number and dealing with a /boot partition were fixed in version 3.1. SL_enable_serialconsole-3.1-3.noarch.rpm SL_firefox_parentlock_fix-1.0-10.noarch.rpm When a users home area is in AFS space, it is possible for firefox, thunderbird, and/or seamonkey to leave a lock file called .parentlock when they are closed. The user is then not able to restart their problem until that lock file is removed. This puts in a startup script that cleans up that file. SL_inittab_change-1.0-5.x86_64.rpm Changes /etc/inittab to require the root password for single user mode. Not installed by default. SL_libg2c.a_change-3.2.3-2.noarch.rpm Creates a missing symbolic link in the gcc-g77 package from /usr/lib/libg2c.a to /usr/lib/gcc-lib/$arch-redhat-linux/3.2.3/libg2c.a SL_no_colorls-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm Turns off "color" of ls. Not installed by default. SL_rpm_show_arch-1.0-1.noarch.rpm Adds arch to "rpm -qa" listing. SL_sendmail_accept-1.0-2.x86_64.rpm Changes Sendmail config so that it allows incomming mail. Not installed by default. SL_startkde_afs-1.0-1.i386.rpm SL_startkde_afs-1.0-1.i386.rpm By default startkde checks to make sure that a users home area has at least 25K of disk space. A bug in the openafs kernel module for the enterprise kernel causes single cpu machines to only list 1 K of space. This changes the check to only need 1 K of space. The check to make sure kde can actually write to the users home area is still intact. SL_startgnome_afs-1.1-1.noarch.rpm Enables gnome to work better in a afs envirnonment. It closes processes left open by gnome after the user has logged out since these processes will not be able to touch the users home directory anymore. It creates lock files in a local temporary directory. This can allow multiple versions of gnome to run, but it prevents AFS corruption. SL_thunderbird_url_handlers-1-1.noarch.rpm Set the URL settings in seamonkey,thunderbird to point to firefox SL_tweek_pagecache-1.0-1.noarch.rpm Modifies the /proc/sys/vm/pagecache settings. This has been shown Changes the values from "1 15 100" to "1 5 15" to make the kernel use less memory on desktop systems for buffer cache. Not installed by default. Documentation Documentation in /sites/example/build/documentation on how to make new "sites" including scripts to create site iso images.

Note that apt is not multi-arch enabled. So since this x86_64 release is multi-arch then apt should not be used. Yum is installed by default and apt is not because of the multi-arch issue. apt-0.5.15cnc6-4.SL.x86_64.rpm apt-devel-0.5.15cnc6-4.SL.x86_64.rpm * apt-sourceslist-309-1.SL.x86_64.rpm apt-autoupdate-1-5.SL.noarch.rpm apt-firstboot-1-5.SL.noarch.rpm apt-scripts-1-5.SL.noarch.rpm synaptic-0.52-1.x86_64.rpm --------------------------------------------------------------------------- UPDATED compared to 3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- KERNEL Latest errata kernel . Note the "unsupported" kernel rpms. These contain modules that are not in the "default kernel rpms". RedHat EULA required changes RedHat requires that the following rpms be changed as part of their EULA (End User License Agreement) anaconda-images redhat-artwork redhat-logos anaconda-help indexhtml sl-release and redhat-lsb were changed to make S.L. lsb compliant sl-release now includes the SL.releasenote * sl-release now has the default bookmarks for seamonkey * sl-release-3.0.9-7.9.noarch.rpm * redhat-lsb-1.3-3.1.SL.309.i386.rpm * redhat-lsb-1.3-3.1.SL.309.x86_64.rpm Http/apache * * Changed the default html web page to contain SL info vs TUV * * httpd-2.0.46-68.sl3.x86_64.rpm * httpd-devel-2.0.46-68.sl3.x86_64.rpm * mod_ssl-2.0.46-68.sl3.x86_64.rpm mozilla/seamonkey We added the i386 version because many plugins are not available for 64bit. * The default bookmarks are now changed in sl-release, so we are * able to use the generic seamonkey rpm's. Fixes to misc RPMS Added "Requires" of coreutils so that it will install during the install gstreamer-0.6.0-5f1.x86_64.rpm gstreamer-tools-0.6.0-5f1.x86_64.rpm Added "Requires" of tetex-afm so that it will be able to print after install. It was missing fonts provided in tetex-afm. a2ps-4.13b-28_SL.x86_64.rpm firstboot-1.1.33-1SL.noarch.rpm Removed the additional_cds.py module findutils-4.1.7-9.2.SL.x86_64.rpm Patch to allow building on systems with afs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installer modifications --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anaconda (installer) * anaconda-9.1.6.20-4.SL.x86_64.rpm * anaconda-runtime-9.1.6.20-4.SL.x86_64.rpm * Updated to Update 9 code Fixed genhdlist bug with no --ignorefile bug # 58 Reverted back to my patch for rpm on cd ordering. Excluded the following RPMS from the "Everything" install GFS was excluded as it needs configuration to not complain ksh93 is excluded because it has some of the same files as pdksh up2date* is excluded as it causes firstboot to not work rhn-applet has a dependency on up2date *openafs* because it needs configuration and it has kernel modules Install kernel*-unsupported by default. It does not conflict with other kernel rpms as it installs into into it's own directory Note that it just contains kernel-modules. Fixed a bug that RedHat introduced in loader2/method.c which broke specifying the install method on the command line. Added code to support "site" customizations which include Custom installer kernel(needs nptl) Custom installer(anaconda) including graphics Added RPMS ability to select packages to install by default via "comps.xml" Modified/replaced RPMS (ability to upgrade or downgrade version) see /sites Made a "Packages added to SL" group so that you could select any of these added RPMS during the install anaconda-help-9.1-3.SL.noarch.rpm Changed to reflect SL vs redhat. Included "generic" installer graphics RedHat requires us as part of their "EULA" that we replace the images in "anaconda-images" with our own. anaconda-images --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Site Info --------------------------------------------------------------------------- /sites/example/ README Now just says to read docs in /sites/example/documentation build/documentation/ README Describes files and directories in /sites/example/ README.steps Step by step of what is needed to make a new site README.images Info on how to change the graphics used during the install /sites/example/build/scripts/ transform.sh Script that does all the steps of README.steps except the original copying of the example tree over to the new site make.site.from.release.sh Script that will take a Enterprise 3 tree and make a site out of it.

They are presented AS IS and there is no guarantee of them working. These packages are NOT supported by us. They will only get security updates if the contributor provides them. If you have questions about them then ask the contributor. There are some rules to follow to be able to contribute to this area. These rules might adjust some. 1- Contract Troy Dawson with the rpm's that you wish to contribute. If Troy doesn't personally know you, be prepared with some some way to show him that you can be trusted. He is a nice guy but he also is very concerned that this contrib section doesn't get abused. 2- The contributed rpm's must be able to go into a standard Scientific Linux 3.0.1 release without any extra outside rpms. If extra rpm's are required, they must be supplied. All extra rpm's supplied must meet the same criteria as the main rpm's. 3- For each rpm, the source rpm (src.rpm) must be provided. 4- For each source rpm, you must provide where you got it. 5- Both rpm's and srpm's must be digitally signed. 6- Rpms must be freely distributable. We understand this sounds like alot of work, but once you do it once, it becomes much easier.

UPDATES are NOT supported for all versions of SL . This is NOT something that we changed. Future releases may support upgrading from SL 3.0.1 to future version of SL 3.0.x. UPDATES will NOT work from anything except RedHat AS 2.1. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- HARDWARE SPECIFIC ISSUES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATI 9600/9700/9800 Video card The version of X included here does NOT support these video cards very well. If you have one of these cards then you should do a text install and at the "X" screen select "vesa". This should be enough to get installed. You can either stay with the "vesa" driver or download and install the "X" driver from www.ati.com . See http://www.ati.com/support/drivers/linux/radeon-linux.html See http://bugzilla.redhat.com bug id 111948 Nvidia Nforce(motherboard chipset) drivers IDE is supported. NO SUPPORT for ethernet, audio, sata. See www.nvidia.com for drivers. There may be "open" drivers for some of these devices. Use google to find them. These are NOT included here. Because of this Nvidia based motherboard are NOT recommended. There are also issues with apic/acpi that can make the system unstable or not boot. Ethernet devices based on "Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Yakou Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter" do not work out of the box. A driver is available from http://www.marvell.com Intel 965 based motherboards Intel does not include a PATA(IDE) controller on the 965 chipset. Most motherboard vendors are including a PATA(IDE) controller but some are not compatible with the 308 kernel. You can try the "all-generic-ide" kernel boot option. It has worked with some pata controllers. Some motherboard vendors are using a non intel sata controller that is not compatible with the 308 kernel. Some motherboard vendors are using a non intel ethernet controller that is not compatible with the 308 kernel. So research this issue before buying a Intel 965 based motherboard. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOFTWARE ISSUES/BUGS --------------------------------------------------------------------------- sgi_fam with tcpwrappers(/etc/hosts.deny) Error messages /var/log/secure such as Jan 22 12:33:33 systemname xinetd[25122]: FAIL: sgi_fam libwrap from= Jan 22 12:33:33 systemname xinetd[3819]: START: sgi_fam pid=25123 from=Jan 22 12:33:33 systemname xinetd[25123]: FAIL: sgi_fam libwrap from= Only solution so far is to change /etc/hosts.allow to allow sgi_fam with fam: ALL This could be a security risk so you must decide. redhat-config-packages This rpm only installs packages via cdrom. It is not useful. It does NOT work so do NOT try to use it. Use yum instead. It is useful. It is only included here because rpms have dependencies on it and I do not want to change those to remove the dependencies. /usr/X11R6/lib The "final link" to each of the libraries is missing. Should be libX11.so.6.2 <- libX11.so.6 <- libX11.so But is libX11.so.6.2 <- libX11.so.6 Solution is to install Xfree86-devel. This rpm will make the missing links. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Web Site http://www.scientificlinux.org FTP ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/309/ Mailing Lists scientific-linux-devel@fnal.gov Development of Scientific Linux scientific-linux-users@fnal.gov Users of Scientific Linux supporting each other scientific-linux-announce@fnal.gov Announcements concerning Scientific Linux scientific-linux-errata@fnal.gov Announcements concerning Security Errata _____________________________________________________________________________ ERRATA included - rebuilt from SRPMS /errata/SL/RPMS/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- * gimp-1.2.3-20.9.el3.x86_64.rpm * gimp-devel-1.2.3-20.9.el3.x86_64.rpm * gimp-perl-1.2.3-20.9.el3.x86_64.rpm * kernel-2.4.21-52.EL.ia32e.rpm * kernel-2.4.21-52.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-doc-2.4.21-52.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-smp-2.4.21-52.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-smp-unsupported-2.4.21-52.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-source-2.4.21-52.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-unsupported-2.4.21-52.EL.ia32e.rpm * kernel-unsupported-2.4.21-52.EL.x86_64.rpm * php-4.3.2-43.ent.x86_64.rpm * php-devel-4.3.2-43.ent.x86_64.rpm * php-imap-4.3.2-43.ent.x86_64.rpm * php-ldap-4.3.2-43.ent.x86_64.rpm * php-mysql-4.3.2-43.ent.x86_64.rpm * php-odbc-4.3.2-43.ent.x86_64.rpm * php-pgsql-4.3.2-43.ent.x86_64.rpm * yum-conf-309-1.SL.noarch.rpm * bind-9.2.4-21.el3.x86_64.rpm * bind-chroot-9.2.4-21.el3.x86_64.rpm * bind-devel-9.2.4-21.el3.x86_64.rpm * bind-libs-9.2.4-21.el3.x86_64.rpm * bind-utils-9.2.4-21.el3.x86_64.rpm * cups-1.1.17-13.3.45.x86_64.rpm * cups-devel-1.1.17-13.3.45.x86_64.rpm * cups-libs-1.1.17-13.3.45.i386.rpm * cups-libs-1.1.17-13.3.45.x86_64.rpm * cyrus-sasl-2.1.15-15.i386.rpm * cyrus-sasl-2.1.15-15.x86_64.rpm * cyrus-sasl-devel-2.1.15-15.x86_64.rpm * cyrus-sasl-gssapi-2.1.15-15.i386.rpm * cyrus-sasl-gssapi-2.1.15-15.x86_64.rpm * cyrus-sasl-md5-2.1.15-15.i386.rpm * cyrus-sasl-md5-2.1.15-15.x86_64.rpm * cyrus-sasl-plain-2.1.15-15.i386.rpm * cyrus-sasl-plain-2.1.15-15.x86_64.rpm * glibc-2.3.2-95.50.i686.rpm * glibc-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * glibc-common-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * glibc-debug-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * glibc-devel-2.3.2-95.50.i386.rpm * glibc-devel-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * glibc-headers-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * glibc-profile-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * glibc-utils-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * httpd-2.0.46-68.sl3.x86_64.rpm * httpd-devel-2.0.46-68.sl3.x86_64.rpm * mod_ssl-2.0.46-68.sl3.x86_64.rpm * kernel-2.4.21-51.EL.ia32e.rpm * kernel-2.4.21-51.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-doc-2.4.21-51.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-openafs-2.4.21-51.EL-1.2.13-15.17.SL.ia32e.rpm * kernel-module-openafs-2.4.21-51.EL-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-openafs-2.4.21-51.ELsmp-1.2.13-15.17.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-smp-2.4.21-51.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-smp-unsupported-2.4.21-51.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-source-2.4.21-51.EL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-unsupported-2.4.21-51.EL.ia32e.rpm * kernel-unsupported-2.4.21-51.EL.x86_64.rpm * libvorbis-1.0-8.el3.i386.rpm * libvorbis-1.0-8.el3.x86_64.rpm * libvorbis-devel-1.0-8.el3.x86_64.rpm * nptl-devel-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * nscd-2.3.2-95.50.x86_64.rpm * openoffice.org-1.1.2-40.2.0.EL3.i386.rpm * openoffice.org-i18n-1.1.2-40.2.0.EL3.i386.rpm * openoffice.org-libs-1.1.2-40.2.0.EL3.i386.rpm * perl-Net-DNS-0.31-4.el3.noarch.rpm * qt-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.i386.rpm * qt-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm * qt-config-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm * qt-designer-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm * qt-devel-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm * qt-MySQL-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm * qt-ODBC-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm * qt-PostgreSQL-3.1.2-17.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.i386.rpm * seamonkey-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-chat-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.i386.rpm * seamonkey-chat-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-devel-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-dom-inspector-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.i386.rpm * seamonkey-dom-inspector-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-js-debugger-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.i386.rpm * seamonkey-js-debugger-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-mail-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.i386.rpm * seamonkey-mail-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-nspr-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.i386.rpm * seamonkey-nspr-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-nspr-devel-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-nss-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.i386.rpm * seamonkey-nss-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * seamonkey-nss-devel-1.0.9-0.3.SL3.x86_64.rpm * squid-2.5.STABLE3-7.3E.x86_64.rpm * star-1.5a08-5.x86_64.rpm * tetex-1.0.7-67.10.x86_64.rpm * tetex-afm-1.0.7-67.10.x86_64.rpm * tetex-doc-1.0.7-67.10.x86_64.rpm * tetex-dvips-1.0.7-67.10.x86_64.rpm * tetex-fonts-1.0.7-67.10.x86_64.rpm * tetex-latex-1.0.7-67.10.x86_64.rpm * tetex-xdvi-1.0.7-67.10.x86_64.rpm * vsftpd-1.2.1-3E.14.x86_64.rpm * xpdf-2.02-10.RHEL3.x86_64.rpm
