Scientific Linux Release Candidate 2.5 for 4.4 on i386 October 4, 2006

Added
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

Intel wireless firmware

      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.
