Scientific Linux 5.2 i386 is now officially released and available. We want to thank everyone for their contributions, testing and feedba ck. With all your effort we have been able to get this release out in a timely manner. There are CD and DVD iso images available at -Connie Sieh -Troy Dawson --SL 5.2 release notes -- Scientific Linux "SL 5.2" for i386 June 26, 2008 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of contents DOWNLOAD INFO ADDED compared to Enterprise 5.2 UPDATED compared to Enterprise 5.2 Installer/legal modifications ADDED by Upstream Vendor /contrib SRPMS HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS LIMITATIONS INFO ERRATA _____________________________________________________________________________ DOWNLOAD INFO _____________________________________________________________________________ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADDED compared to vendor ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- resolution-0.5.3-6.el5.i386.rpm resolution is a tool to modify the video BIOS of the 800 and seriesIntel graphics chipsets. This includes the 845G, 855G, and 5G 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 resolution must be run every time the computer boots inorder for it's changes to take effect. resolution is derived from the tool855resolution. However, the i code differs substantially. 915resolution's code base is much simpler. resolution also allows the modification of bits per pixel. alpine Alpine is a tool for reading, sending, and managing electronic m essages.

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 inclu ded the repositories we did because they usually work well together. But if there is a problem with one of the packages in a repository, ple ase contact that repository maintainer. yum-autoupdate yum-autoupdate has the check for a running yum in it, so that if 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 wa nt 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, itdoesn't wait, but does the update. If it is longer than 20 hours, it waits a random time, up to 3 h ours. 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 l atest stable release. It is always pointing at the 5x area.

The VT directory contains the same rpms on each cd. The Cluster, ClusterStorage and Workstation directories do not have anycommon rpms. The Client and Server directories contain many common rpms along with many unique rpms.
