In other words: If you have to upgrade from SL 4.0 and 4.1, you have to updated your whole cluster at once. * ccs-1.0.11-1.x86_64.rpm * ccs-devel-1.0.11-1.x86_64.rpm * cluster-cim-0.11.0-3.x86_64.rpm * cluster-snmp-0.11.0-3.x86_64.rpm * cmirror-1.0.1-1.x86_64.rpm * cmirror-kernel-2.6.9-38.7.x86_64.rpm * cmirror-kernel-largesmp-2.6.9-38.7.x86_64.rpm * cmirror-kernel-smp-2.6.9-38.7.x86_64.rpm * cmirror-kernel-xenU-2.6.9-38.7.x86_64.rpm * cman-1.0.17-0.el4_6.3.x86_64.rpm * cman-devel-1.0.17-0.el4_6.3.x86_64.rpm * cman-1.0.17-0.el4.3.x86_64.rpm * cman-devel-1.0.17-0.el4.3.x86_64.rpm * cman-kernel-2.6.9-53.8.x86_64.rpm * cman-kernel-largesmp-2.6.9-53.8.x86_64.rpm * cman-kernel-smp-2.6.9-53.8.x86_64.rpm * cman-kernel-xenU-2.6.9-53.8.x86_64.rpm * cman-kernheaders-2.6.9-53.8.x86_64.rpm * dlm-1.0.7-1.x86_64.rpm * dlm-devel-1.0.7-1.x86_64.rpm * dlm-kernel-2.6.9-52.4.x86_64.rpm * dlm-kernel-largesmp-2.6.9-52.4.x86_64.rpm * dlm-kernel-smp-2.6.9-52.4.x86_64.rpm * dlm-kernel-xenU-2.6.9-52.4.x86_64.rpm * dlm-kernheaders-2.6.9-52.4.x86_64.rpm * fence-1.32.50-2.el4_6.1.x86_64.rpm * GFS-6.1.15-1.x86_64.rpm * GFS-kernel-2.6.9-75.11.x86_64.rpm * GFS-kernel-largesmp-2.6.9-75.11.x86_64.rpm * GFS-kernel-smp-2.6.9-75.11.x86_64.rpm * GFS-kernel-xenU-2.6.9-75.11.x86_64.rpm * GFS-kernheaders-2.6.9-75.11.x86_64.rpm * gnbd-1.0.9-1.x86_64.rpm * gnbd-kernel-2.6.9-10.31.x86_64.rpm * gnbd-kernel-largesmp-2.6.9-10.31.x86_64.rpm * gnbd-kernel-smp-2.6.9-10.31.x86_64.rpm * gnbd-kernel-xenU-2.6.9-10.31.x86_64.rpm * gnbd-kernheaders-2.6.9-10.31.x86_64.rpm * gulm-1.0.10-0.x86_64.rpm * gulm-devel-1.0.10-0.x86_64.rpm * iddev-2.0.0-4.x86_64.rpm * iddev-devel-2.0.0-4.x86_64.rpm * luci-0.11.0-3.el4.x86_64.rpm * lvm2-cluster-2.02.27-2.el4_6.2.x86_64.rpm * magma-1.0.8-1.x86_64.rpm * magma-devel-1.0.8-1.x86_64.rpm * magma-plugins-1.0.12-0.x86_64.rpm * modcluster-0.11.0-3.x86_64.rpm perl-Net-Telnet-3.03-3.noarch.rpm piranha-0.8.2-1.x86_64.rpm * rgmanager-1.9.72-1.x86_64.rpm * ricci-0.9.1-8.x86_64.rpm * system-config-cluster-1.0.51-2.0.el4_6.1.noarch.rpm dropit dropit's intended purpose is to remove directories from a PATH shell variable value, which has colon separated fields. dropit is usable in sh, ksh, and csh shell script and source files. dropit-1.2-1.x86_64.rpm Firefox Added i386 version of firefox because there are not very many plugins for the x86_64 version. libbonobo, libbonoboui and libgnomeui for i386 were added because the i386 version of firefox needs them. * firefox-1.5.0.12-0.10.el4.i386.rpm libbonobo-2.8.0-2.i386.rpm libbonoboui-2.8.0.99cvs20040929-2.i386.rpm libgnomeui-2.8.0-1.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. fuse-2.5.3-1.SL.x86_64.rpm fuse-devel-2.5.3-1.SL.x86_64.rpm fuse-libs-2.5.3-1.SL.x86_64.rpm fuse-smb-0.8.5-1.x86_64.rpm * fuse-sshfs-1.9-2.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-fuse-2.6.9-67.0.4.EL-2.5.3-1.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-fuse-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELlargesmp-2.5.3-1.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-fuse-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELsmp-2.5.3-1.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-fuse-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELxenU-2.5.3-1.SL.x86_64.rpm *icewm A lightweight window manager for the X Window System. * icewm-1.2.33-1.x86_64.rpm * icewm-l10n-1.2.33-1.x86_64.rpm ipw3945 Intel Wireless ipw3945d is needed to control the ipw3945 wireless card kernel-module-ipw3945 is needed because this driver is not in the standard kernel.

It's license is found at misc/licenses/j2sdk-1.5.0-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 jdk-1.5.0 rpm. There is no gpg signature on this rpm. Putting one would violate the user license. It also does not load if one is put on. ksh From ATT, same version as is in SL30x. ksh93-2000.10.31.0-1.i386.rpm *madwifi Support for Atheros G wireless madfifi is the Multiband Atheros Driver for WiFi, a linux device driver for 802.11a/b/g universal NIC cards - either Cardbus, PCI or MiniPCI - that use Atheros chipsets (ar5210, ar5211, ar5212). * madwifi-0.9.3.3-10.sl4.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-madwifi-2.6.9-67.0.4.EL-0.9.3.3-10.sl4.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-madwifi-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELlargesmp-0.9.3.3-10.sl4.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-madwifi-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELsmp-0.9.3.3-10.sl4.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-madwifi-hal-2.6.9-67.0.4.EL-0.9.3.3-10.sl4.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-madwifi-hal-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELlargesmp-0.9.3.3-10.sl4.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-madwifi-hal-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELsmp-0.9.3.3-10.sl4.x86_64.rpm multimedia Updated to latest version gstreamer-plugins-mp3-0.8.5-1.SL4x.x86_64.rpm from livna Repository k3b-mp3-0.11.24-2.SL4x.x86_64.rpm from livna Repository mpg321-0.2.10-5.SL.i386.rpm from Dag's Repository mpg321-0.2.10-5.SL.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository xmms-mp3-1.2.10-11.1.SL.i386.rpm from Dag's Repository xmms-mp3-1.2.10-11.1.SL.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository These are dependencies of the above rpms. lame-3.96.1-4.SL4x.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository lame-devel-3.96.1-4.SL4x.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository libid3tag-0.15.1b-3.SL.i386.rpm from Dag's Repository libid3tag-0.15.1b-3.SL.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository libid3tag-devel-0.15.1b-3.SL.i386.rpm from Dag's Repository libid3tag-devel-0.15.1b-3.SL.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository libmad-0.15.1b-3.SL.i386.rpm from Dag's Repository libmad-0.15.1b-3.SL.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository libmad-devel-0.15.1b-3.SL.i386.rpm from Dag's Repository libmad-devel-0.15.1b-3.SL.x86_64.rpm from Dag's Repository 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. The installer does not automatically install ndiswrapper. You may select it from the Added to SL selection. * ndiswrapper-1.41-1.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.9-67.0.4.EL-1.41-1.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELlargesmp-1.41-1.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELsmp-1.41-1.SL.x86_64.rpm * kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.9-67.0.4.ELxenU-1.41-1.SL.x86_64.rpm *NumPy http://numpy.scipy.org// NumPy derives from the old Numeric code base and can be used as a replacement for Numeric.

It 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. * libRmath-2.6.2-1.sl4.x86_64.rpm * libRmath-devel-2.6.2-1.sl4.x86_64.rpm * R-2.6.2-1.sl4.x86_64.rpm * R-devel-2.6.2-1.sl4.x86_64.rpm r1000 This is the Linux device driver released for RealTek Ethernet controllers, which are listed as following. 1. RTL8169S/SB/SC (Gigabit Ethernet with PCI interface) 2. RTL8168B (Gigabit Ethernet with PCI-Express interface) 3.

This rpm does not restart afs SL_desktop_tweaks-2.0-4.noarch.rpm This adds a terminal icon to the kicker panel for both KDE and GNOME. This also enables 'Last Session' in gdm login screen. Installed by default for both KDE and GNOME. Release 4 has everything setup correctly SL_disable_print_notification-1.0-4.noarch.rpm Removes eggcups notification. Not installed by default. SL_enable_serialconsole-3.1-4.noarch.rpm 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. Updated to include a missing dependency. SL_enable_slocate_cron-1.0-1.noarch.rpm By default slocate does not run daily, it is turned off in it's config file. This turns it on when the rpm is added, and turns it back off when the rpm is removed. 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-1.0-6.noarch.rpm Changes /etc/inittab to require the root password for single user mode. Not installed by default. SL_libg2c.a_change-3.4.3-1.noarch.rpm Creates a missing symbolic link in the gcc-g77 package from /usr/lib/libg2c.a to it's proper place SL_no_colorls-1.0-2.noarch.rpm Turns off "color" of ls. Not installed by default. SL_pc_speaker-1.0-1.noarch.rpm This package changes the rc.sysinit boot script so that the pcspkr kernel module is loaded at an early stage. This will allow the PC speaker to beep again. SL_rpm_show_arch-1.0-1.noarch.rpm Adds arch to "rpm -qa" listing. SL_sendmail_accept-1.1-3.noarch.rpm Changes Sendmail config so that it allows incomming mail. Not installed by default. Removed the obsoletes of zz_sendmail_accept as it is not needed now 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 people with disabilities. * tidy-2005.9.21-2.sl4.x86_64.rpm * tidy-devel-2005.9.21-2.sl4.x86_64.rpm yum NOTE: That just because a yum repository exists does NOT mean it is SL 4.4 compatible with all other SL 4.4 yum repositories. Use of other "packages" such as "smart" may cause the rpm database to be not compatible with yum. createrepo is used to create yum repositories on the server for yum 2.1 and above, and possibly future versions of apt. yum-conf has the check for a running yum in it, so that if yum has been running for a long time, when the yum.cron starts up, it will kill the old yum. This was changed because we had reports that yum was "hanging". yum-conf-4.1-4.SL has atrpms, dag, and dries repo's in it, but they are not enabled by default. To enable them for one time use, use the --enablerepo command, such as yum --enablerepo=atrpms list madwifi yum --enablerepo=dag install mplayer 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 /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/dries.repo 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 python-elementtree, python-sqlite, sqlite, and urlgrabber are all needed for yum 2.4 and above. New for yum-conf-4.3: a sl-testing area (not on by default) and 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. 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 There is a fastbug repo area to correspond to the vendors fasttrack This is not on by default. yum-conf-4x was created for those users who want to be at the latest stable release. It is always pointing at the 4x area. This means that when we make new versions you will automatically be upgraded to them. * We have changed flash.repo to be adobe.repo * adobe.repo now points to the repository at linuxdownload.adobe.com * * yum-2.4.3-2.SL.noarch.rpm * yum-conf-46-1.SL.noarch.rpm * yum-conf-4x-1-7.SL.noarch.rpm createrepo-0.4.4-1.noarch.rpm python-elementtree-1.2.6-4.i386.rpm python-sqlite-1.1.6-1.i386.rpm sqlite-3.1.2-3.i386.rpm sqlite-devel-3.1.2-3.i386.rpm urlgrabber-2.9.6-1.noarch.rpm Yumex is a graphical user interface for yum.

We have changed the "rpms" that are required to be changed. These changes are defined by the "vendor". sl-release has been determined to be the place to change several global properties. This is how fedora does it. sl-release changes the default mozilla and firefox bookmarks. sl-release changes the default up2date configuration to use yum and points this configuration to ftp.scientificlinux.org Changes grub to put in the new release name for the default kernel indexhtml-4.1-1.SL.1.noarch.rpm redhat-artwork-0.120.1-1.2SL.2.i386.rpm redhat-artwork-0.120.1-1.2SL.2.x86_64.rpm redhat-logos-1.1.25-1.SL.8.noarch.rpm * sl-release-4.6-0.1.rolling.noarch.rpm desktop-backgrounds-... we made minor customizations desktop-backgrounds-basic-2.0-26.2.3SL.noarch.rpm desktop-backgrounds-extra-2.0-26.2.3SL.noarch.rpm fontconfig had to be recompiled so the the md5sum of fonts-conf matched for both i386 and x86_64, since they both were the same file. fontconfig-2.2.3-7.SL4.i386.rpm fontconfig-2.2.3-7.SL4.x86_64.rpm fontconfig-devel-2.2.3-7.SL4.x86_64.rpm *comps-46-0.*.x86_64.rpm RPM which contains the comps.xml file used during the install. Needed by Rocks. glade2-2.6.0-1.SL4.x86_64.rpm glade2 has an bug so that all you got was a blank window when it started. This was an infinate loop bug, which was fixed. (removed S.L. 4.2)pam_krb5-2.1.2-1.SL.1.i386.rpm (removed S.L. 4.2)pam_krb5-2.1.2-1.SL.1.x86_64.rpm The bugs fixed by patches added to pam_krb5-2.1.2-1 have been addressed and are no longer needed. We are now using the vendors package again. If you have kerberos enabled, and AFS installed, and you are finding that your login's are taking a long time, then you will want to put "ignore_afs = true" in the pam section of your /etc/krb5.conf file. You will not get an AFS token when you authenticate, but you weren't before either. Apache Changed index.html to not have Upstream Vendor info but to have SL info. * httpd-2.0.52-38.sl4.2.x86_64.rpm * httpd-manual-2.0.52-38.sl4.2.x86_64.rpm * httpd-devel-2.0.52-38.sl4.2.x86_64.rpm *

Scientific Linux 4.5 and above have a xen kernel. This allows them to be installed as a xen paravirtulizaed guest. Follow the Virtual Host's instructions for installing a paravirtulizaed guest, to install Scientific Linux 4.5 as a xen guest. Paravirtualizaed guests on Scientific Linux 5.0 This is a limitation of Scientific Linux 5.0, but affects installing Scientific Linux 4.5 as a paravirtulized guest. These limitations will hopefully be fixed in Scientific Linux 5.1 or 5.2 - 32 bit (i386) paravirtualized guests cannot run on a 64 bit (x86_64) host (dom0). It will fail. - 64 bit (x86_64) paravirtualized guests cannot run on a 32 bit (i386) host (dom0). It will fail. Fully Virtualizaed guests on Scientific Linux 5.0 This is a limitation of Scientific Linux 5.0, but affects installing Scientific Linux 4.5 as a fully virtulized guest. - 64 bit fully-virtulizaed guests cannot run on a 32 bit (i386) host (dom0). It will fail. system-config-packages add,remove packages This does NOT work use yum instead. up2date up2date is not supported in Scientific Linux.
