resolution

resolution is a tool to modify the video BIOS of the 800 and 900
series Intel graphics chipsets. This includes the 845G, 855G, and
865G chipsets, as well as 915G, 915GM, and 945G chipsets. This
modification is necessary to allow the display of certain graphics
resolutions for an Xorg or XFree86 graphics server.

resolution's modifications of the BIOS are transient. There is
no risk of permanent modification of the BIOS. This also means that
915resolution must be run every time the computer boots inorder for
it's changes to take effect.

resolution is derived from the tool 855resolution. However, the icode
differs substantially. 915resolution's code base is much simpler.
resolution also allows the modification of bits per pixel.

 resolution-0.5.3-6.el5.x86_64.rpm

*FUSE

 With FUSE it is possible to implement a fully functional filesystem
 in a userspace program.
 fuse-smb: you can seamlessly browse your network neighbourhood as if
 it were on your own filesystem. Only when you're accessing a share is
 a connection made to the remote computer. This also allows users to
 mount smb shares using kerberos.
 fuse-sshfs: A FUSE-filesystem client based on the
 SSH File Transfer Protocol. On the client side mounting the
 filesystem is as easy as logging into the server with ssh.

*looks for the ipw3945 hardware, and if it finds it
*it starts up the ipw3945 deamon.
 kernel-module-ipw3945 is needed because this driver is not in
 the standard kernel.

 This driver is known to work on the Dell 820 and Dell 620.
 It is known to NOT work on the FJS S7110 (Fujitsu).

tidy
 When editing HTML it's easy to make mistakes. Wouldn't it be nice if
 there was a simple way to fix these mistakes automatically and tidy up
 sloppy editing into nicely layed out markup? Well now there is! Dave
 Raggett's HTML TIDY is a free utility for doing just that. It also
 works great on the atrociously hard to read markup generated by
 specialized HTML editors and conversion tools, and can help you
 identify where you need to pay further attention on making your pages
 more accessible to people with disabilities.

MISC
 Added these rpms because they are important but upstream vendor
 did
 not include them.

 gv-3.6.2-2.sl5.x86_64.rpmfrom Stephan Wiesand
* pine-4.64-3.sl.x86_64.rpmfrom Dag's Repository
*replaced by alpine

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changed RPMS compared to vendor
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installer(anaconda)

* anaconda-11.1.2.113-3.SL.x86_64.rpm
* anaconda-runtime-11.1.2.113-3.SL.x86_64.rpm
*
* Added kernel-module.py yum plugin during the install
 Modified pkgorder with patches from CentOS
 Modified installclasses/rhel.py to remove key request
 Modified installclasses/rhel.py to include SL groups sites support
see sites/example

Note: Installing sites on a virtual machine
When installing a paravirtulized site, you have to point at the
site directory, such as 5rolling/i386/sites/example

When installing a fully virtulized site, you only have to point
to the base directory, like you usually would, such as
rolling/x86_64/sites/example

*comps.xml
*
*Updated some group names and descriptions to work better internationally
*
*In Update 1 The Upstream Vendor changed their comps.xml files to
*reflect a different sorting structure, as well as clean up extra
*files from their short term linux release.
*
*In Update 2 The Upstream Vendor added more packages to their comps.xml
*comps-sl.xml has been changed to incorporate most of The Upstream
*Vendorschanges. Since we have merged their various comps.xml
*files, our comps.xml will never really look like theirs. But this
*change brings ours more in linewith their Update 2 versions.

There are minimal changes compared to the "vendor" release. We have changed
the "rpms" that are required to be changed. These changes are defined by the
"vendor".

redhat-artwork-5.0.9-1.SL.2.x86_64.rpm
redhat-artwork-5.0.9-1.SL.2.i386.rpm
redhat-logos-4.9.16-1.SL.6.noarch.rpm
* sl-release-5.2-1.x86_64.rpm
* sl-release-notes-5.2-1.noarch.rpm
 sl-release changes the default mozilla and firefox bookmarks.
 sl-release changes the default rhn configuration to use yum and
 points this configuration to ftp.scientificlinux.org
 sl-release removed the firstboot additional cd's question
 redhat-logos was changed to add the "photographs" shown during
 the install

These rpm's are not required to be changed by the vendor, but we felt
they needed to be changed

*gdm-2.16.0-46.sl5.x86_64.rpm
 Changed the default theme from RHEL to EaseOfBlue
* pirut-1.3.28-13.sl.noarch.rpm
* Removed "Requires: rhn-setup-gnome"
 rhgb-0.16.4-8.sl.1.x86_64.rpm
 Changed the colors.

python-virtinst

virtinst is a module to help in starting installations inside of
virtual machines. It supports both paravirt guests as well as
fully virtualized guests. It uses libvirt (for starting things. Also contained is a simple
script virt-install which uses virtinst in a command line mode.

It was only configured to know about TUV virtual machines. We added
a patch so that it knew about Scientific Linux, and thus be able
to install SL paravirtual machines.

*python-virtinst-0.300.2-8.sl.noarch.rpm

yum

 Yum version 2.4 and above has the kernel-module plugin that let's yum
 understand how kernel-module rpm's are related to kernels. Because of
 this updates dealing with kernel-module rpm's (such as afs) now work

 yum-conf
* priorities have been set on the repositories. But you have to have
* yum-priorities installed for them to take effect.
 metadata_expire variable was set to 20 hours to allow for normal users to be able to use yum for those commands they can run
 yum-conf has the following repositories in it
 sl-base (enabled)
 sl-security (enabled)
 sl-testing (not enabled)
 sl-fastbugs (not enabled)
 sl-bugfix-51 (not enabled)
 atrpms (not enabled)
 dag (not enabled)
 flash (not enabled)
 Not all repositories are enabled by default.
 To enable them for one time use, use the --enablerepo command, such as
 yum --enablerepo=3Datrpms list mplayer
 yum --enablerepo=3Ddag install xine
 yum --enablerepo=3Dflash install flash-player

 If you want the repositories to be enabled all the time then y
ou need
 to edit the config files and change enabled=0 to enabled=1.
 The config files are in the /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory and are
 named like
 /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms.repo
 /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo

 NOTE1: Just because a yum repository exists does NOT mean
 it is compatible with all other yum repositories. We have included
 the repositories we did because they usually work well together
. But if
 there is a problem with one of the packages in a repository,
 please contact that repository maintainer.

 yum-autoupdate

 yum-autoupdate has the check for a running yum in it, so thatif
 yum has been running for a long time (close to 24 hours), when the
yum.cron starts up, it will kill the old yum. This was changed
because we had reports that yum was hanging and we didn't want
this to interfere with updates.

 yum-autoupdate 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.
 If it is longer than 20 hours, it waits a random time, up to 3
hours.
 This uptime check was done to help laptops and other machines
 that
 might not be on long enough to wait for the random time.
 The random time was put it in so that servers arn't overwhelmed
.

 yum-conf-5x was created for those users who want to be at the
 latest
 stable release. It is always pointing at the 5x area. This
means
 that when we make new versions you will automatically be upgr
aded to
 them.
* yum-conf-epel has been added so that people could use the epel y
um
* repository. This rpm requires both yum-provides and yum-fastest
mirror

Does not work in the installer

ftp install
Currently, during an ftp install when it get's the the graphical
 section, there is a long pause (close to a minute) when it sits
 at a blank screen. It is NOT frozen, it is just searching for
 files that are not there. Give it a couple minutes and it
 will continue.
