*915resolution
*  	
* 	915resolution 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.
* 	915resolution'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.
*  	
* 	915resolution is derived from the tool 855resolution. However, the i
* 	code differs substantially. 915resolution's code base is much simpler.i
* 	915resolution also allows the modification of bits per pixel.
* 
*      915resolution-0.5.3-6.el5.i386.rpm

*alpine
* 
* 	Alpine is a tool for reading, sending, and managing electronic messages.
* 	Alpine is the successor to Pine and was developed by Computing & 
* 	Communications at the University of Washington.

cfitsio
 
 	CFITSIO is a library of C and FORTRAN subroutines for reading and 
 	writing data files in FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) data format
 	CFITSIO is widely used in the astronomical community.

	cfitsio-devel-3.030-1.sl5.i386.rpm

dropit
    	dropit's intended purpose is to remove directories entries from  a
    	PATH shell variable value, which has colon separated fields.  
    	dropit is usable in sh, ksh, and csh shell script files.
    
    			dropit-1.2-1.i386.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.

 	ipw2100-firmware-1.3-5.noarch.rpm
 	ipw2200-firmware-3.0-1.noarch.rpm

  	ipw3945d is needed to control the ipw3945 wireless card
  	kernel-module-ipw3945 is needed because this driver is not in 
  	the standard kernel.  Note that the installer does NOT know
  	how to enable the 3945 wireless.   You will have to add the
  	starting of the /sbin/ipw3945d in your startup scripts.
 	This driver is known to work on the Dell 820 and Dell 620.  
 	It is known to NOT work on the FJS S7110 (Fujitsu).

* 	present on your system in order for the Intel Wireless WiFi Link
* 	4965AGN driver for Linux (iwlwifi) to be able to operate on your
* 	system.
* 
* 	iwlwifi-4965-ucode-4.44.17-5.sl5.noarch.rpm

JAVA  

* 	java-1.5.0-sun-compat-1.5.0.14-1jpp.noarch.rpm
* 	jdk-1.5.0_14-fcs.i586.rpm

 	This packages is the java sdk from sun.
 	It's license is found at SL.documentation/jdk-1.5.x.license
 	To have all of it's links (including plugins) setup correctly you should
 	also install java-1.5.0-sun-compat
 	So the easiest thing to do is  
            yum install java-1.5.0-sun-compat
 	as it will automatically pull in the current j2sdk-1.5.0 rpm.

*       java-1.5.0-sun-compat-1.5.0.14-1jpp.noarch.rpm
   
   	This package provides JPackage compatibility symlinks and 
   	directories for Sun's JDK rpm.

ndiswrapper
  
    The ndiswrapper project makes it possible to use WLAN-Hardware
    with Linux by means of a loadable kernel module that "wraps
    around" NDIS (Windows network driver API) drivers.  These rpms contain
    just the kernel module and loader. You will also need the Windows driver
    for your card.
 
   WARNING: Scientific Linux-Kernels use 4K size stack. Many Windows drivers
   will need at least 8K size stacks. For details read the wiki on:

R

	http://www.r-project.org/
	R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. 
	R is a GNU project which is similar to the S language and environment 
	which was developed at Bell Laboratories by John Chambers and 
        colleagues. 
	R can be considered as a different implementation of S. There are some 
	important differences, but much code written for S runs unaltered 
        under R.

*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.

Changed RPMS compared to vendor 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Installer(anaconda)
 
 	Modified pkgorder with patches from CentOS

*	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
*	5rolling/x86_64/sites/example

*	anaconda-11.1.2.87-1.SL.i386.rpm
*	anaconda-runtime-11.1.2.87-1.SL.i386.rpm

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.i386.rpm
	redhat-logos-4.9.16-1.SL.6.noarch.rpm
*       sl-release-5.1-1.i386.rpm  
*	sl-release-notes-5.1-1.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-2.16.0-30.sl5.i386.rpm
		Changed the default theme from RHEL to EaseOfBlue
 	pirut-1.2.10-1.sl.noarch.rpm
		Removed "Requires: rhn-setup-gnome"
	rhgb-0.16.4-8.sl.1.i386.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 (http://www.libvirt.org) 
* 	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-0.103.0-3.sl5.2.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
   	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=atrpms list mplayer
  	  yum --enablerepo=dag install xine
  	  yum --enablerepo=flash install flash-player
 
  	If you want the repositories to be enabled all the time then you 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 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 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

Changed in order to be built

	Some rpm's had to be changed in order for us to build them.
	
	The following rpm's had to have a variable changed so that they
	point to the current include file

	brlapi-0.4.1-1.fc6.1.i386.rpm
	brlapi-devel-0.4.1-1.fc6.1.i386.rpm
	brltty-3.7.2-1.fc6.1.i386.rpm

/SL/
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Upstream Vendor's release consists of 2 cd sets,  Server and Client.  Each 
cd set has a group of directories which contain the actual rpms.  On the Client 
cd this consists of Client,Workstation and VT.  On the Server cd this consists
of Server,VT,Cluster, ClusterStorage.  The VT directory contains the same rpms 
on each cd.  The Cluster, ClusterStorage and Workstation directories do not 
have any common rpms. The Client and Server directories contain many common 
rpms along with many unique rpms.  

Scientific Linux has combined all of the rpm's from Client, Server, VT, Cluster,
ClusterStorage, and Workstation into the SL directory.
You are not asked to enter any key, since you have access to all packages.

RPMS provided by colaboraters that either cannot go in main release or are
intesting before going into main release.

ipw2100, ipw2200, ipw3945
	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.  This will be fixed before the final release.

NVIDIA motherboard chipsets
	May need to use 
		linux noapic
	to install.

Intel 965 motherboard chipset
	May need to use
		linux all-generic-ide 
	if you have pata hardware
