Thanks to all who have helped with this release. We expect this to be the
last "Update" for 3.0.x as this is the last "Update" from "The Upstream
Vendor"(TUV). Errata support is scheduled to continue until Oct 2007.
I have included the "Upstream Vendor" Update 8 release notes.

IceWM
A small and fast window manager. Good for slower systems or
systems with not much memory. It is put it in the graphical login's
session list if installed.
icewm-1.2.20-2.i386.rpm
icewm-l10n-1.2.20-2.i386.rpm
java-1.4.2-sun-compat-1.4.2.08-2jpp.i586.rpm
This package provides JPackage compatibility symlinks and
directories for Sun's JDK rpm.
j2sdk-1.4.2_08-fcs.i586.rpm
This packages is the java sdk from sun.
It's license is found at misc/licenses/j2sdk-1.4.2-x.license
To have all of it's links (including plugins) setup correctly you should
also install java-1.4.2-sun-compat
So the easiest thing to do is
yum install java-1.4.2-sun-compat
as it will automatically pull in j2sdk-1.4.2_08-fcs.i586.rpm
Added RedHat Application Server to ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org
See README at ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/RHAPS/
These are straight from RedHat with the exception of the
java-1.4.2-sun-compat-1.4.2.07-1jpp.noarch.rpm .
A yum.conf.rhaps has been added to the yum-conf rpm that points
to this area.
Korn shell from ATT
ksh93-2000.10.31.0-1.i386.rpm
mpg321, xmms-mp3, libmad, libid3tag
Because of licensing reasons RedHat did not include MP3 support
in their distribution. While this does not fill all cases, this
does allow some of the more popular music players to use mp3's.
libmad and libid3tag were added for dependancy reasons.
mpg321-0.2.10-4fr.i386.rpm
xmms-mp3-1.2.7-1.i386.rpm
libmad-0.15.1b-1.fr.i386.rpm

* kernel-module-openafs-2.4.21-47.ELsmp-1.2.13-15.17.SL.i686.rpm
removed LSB init info from init script because the
"fixed" chkconfig from Update 5 gets it all wrong
The openafs-firstboot rpm enables "firstboot" to ask about
what AFS cell you want and if you want afs started at boot.
openafs-firstboot-1.2.11-5.SL.noarch.rpm
pine
RedHat removed because of license issues .
Changes pine.conf to reside in /etc/pine.conf vs /usr/local/
pine-4.58-3.SL.i386.rpm
Performance Co-Pilot (PCP)
Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) is a framework and services to
support system-level performance monitoring and performance
management. Not installed by default.
pcp-2.3.2-5.i386.rpm
rhgb
Remove "Red Hat" from rpm.
rhgb-0.11.2-5.SL.i386.rpm
SL_afs_no_dynroot-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
This package removes the -dynroot option from the openafs config
Restarting of afs is needed for this to take effect.
This rpm does not restart afs
SL_desktop_tweeks-1.1-1.i386.rpm
This adds a terminal and mozilla icon to the kicker panel for
both KDE and GNOME. Installed by default for both KDE and GNOME.
SL_enable_serialconsole
Renamed from serialconsole so as to use the new naming convention.
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.
Bug with the default serial number and dealing with a /boot
partition were fixed in version 3.1.
SL_enable_serialconsole-3.1-3.noarch.rpm
*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 firefox, thunderbird, and/or seamonkey until that lock filei
* is removed. This puts in a startup script that removes the .parentlock
* lock file.
SL_inittab_change-1.0-4.i386.rpm
Changes /etc/inittab to require the root password for
single user mode. Not installed by default.
SL_libg2c.a_change-3.2.3-1.i386.rpm
Creates a missing symbolic link in the gcc-g77 package from
/usr/lib/libg2c.a
to /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.3/libg2c.a
Installed with gcc-g77.
SL_no_colorls-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
Turns off "color" of ls. Not installed by default.
SL_sendmail_accept-1.0-2.i386.rpm
Changes Sendmail config so that it allows incomming mail.
Not installed by default.
SL_startkde_afs-1.0-1.i386.rpm
By default startkde checks to make sure that a users home area has
at least 25K of disk space. A bug in the openafs kernel module for
the enterprise kernel causes single cpu machines to only list 1 K of
space. This changes the check to only need 1 K of space. The check
to make sure kde can actually write to the users home area is still
intact.
SL_startgnome_afs-1.1-1.noarch.rpm
Enables gnome to work better in a afs envirnonment.
It closes processes left open by gnome after the user has logged out
since these processes will not be able to touch the users home
directory anymore.
It creates lock files in a local temporary directory. This can
allow multiple versions of gnome to run, but it prevents AFS corruption.
SL_thunderbird_url_handlers-1-1.noarch.rpm
Set the URL settings in thunderbird to point to firefox
SL_tweek_pagecache-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
For the RedHat kernel 2.4.21-9.EL and above, many people feel that
the kernel isn't very responsive on desktops. This tweek changes
the pagecache settings. This has been shown to make the kernel
seem much more responsive in a desktop enviroment. Values
changed to "1 5 10" for /proc/sys/vm/pagecache .
This parameter has three values :
Minimum percent of memory used for page cache. Default is 1%.
The initial amount of memory for cache. Default is 15%.
Maximum percent of memory used for page cache. Default is 100%
Yum
* yum-2.0.7-12.SL.noarch.rpm
* yum-2.0.7-12 fixed the problem with yum not working with the
* inbuilt ftp server in the bluearc .
yum-2.0.7-8 added support for ia32e.
yum-2.0.7-9 fixed kernel-module hangups, as well as installs
kernel-modules for multiple kernels
yum-2.0.7-7 contains a patch that allows yum to be able to
handle kernel-module-<product> rpm's.
yum 2.0.7 contains minor bug fixes along with the feature
of yum [action] package.somearch support added for
erase/remove, install, update and upgrade
* yum-conf-308-1.SL.noarch.rpm
New for yum-conf-307:
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.
There is a fastbug repo area to correspond to the vendors fasttrack
This is not on by default.
Made it easier for users to change where their repository is.
For yum.cron you now only have to change the files
/etc/yum.d/yum.cron.primary and/or yum.cron.secondary
You can add multiple repository in either file, or leave either blank.
The servers in primary will be used in the order they are in the
file. The servers in secondary will be used randomly. So if you
are concerned about overloading your one server, leave the primary
blank, and list all your servers in secondary, where they will
be used randomly
yumi-2.0.7-2.noarch.rpm
GUI written for YUM
The vendor decided to include the following rpms. We had included them
in /notsupported/RPMS before. Since there were not many rpms left we moved
all of /notsupported/RPMS/

NEDIT
Nedit was found to have a bug preventing it from opening files.
Rebuilding from source did not clear up the problem. It also
showed a comment that STRONGLY suggested just getting the binaries
from nedit.org. We followed this advice, and we packaged the
binaries from nedit.org, into an rpm
nedit-5.4-1.i386.rpm
Fixes to misc RPMS
firstboot-1.1.33-1SL.noarch.rpm
Removed the additional_cds.py module
Added "Requires" of coreutils so that it will install during the install
gstreamer-0.6.0-5f1.i386.rpm
gstreamer-tools-0.6.0-5f1.i386.rpm
fixed by
gstreamer-plugins-0.6.0-18.i386.rpm

Installer modifications
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anaconda (installer)
* anaconda-9.1.6.15-1.SL.i386.rpm
* anaconda-runtime-9.1.6.15-1.SL.i386.rpm
Fixed bug if you did not have a --ignorefile, bug #58
Updated to Update 6 and 7 code
Excluded the following RPMS from the "Everything" install
GFS was excluded as it needs configuration to not complain
ksh93 is excluded because it has some of the same files as pdksh
up2date* is excluded as it causes firstboot to not work
rhn-applet has a dependency on up2date
*openafs* because it needs configuration and it has kernel modules
Install kernel*-unsupported by default. It does not conflict with
other kernel rpms as it installs into into it's own directory
Note that it just contains kernel-modules.
Fixed a bug that RedHat introduced in loader2/method.c which broke
specifying the install method on the command line.
Added code to support "site" customizations which include
Custom installer kernel(needs nptl)
Custom installer(anaconda) including graphics
Added RPMS
ability to select packages to install by default via "comps.xml"
Modified/replaced RPMS (ability to upgrade or downgrade version)
see /sites
Made a "Packages added to SL" group so that you could select
any of these added RPMS during the install
anaconda-help-9.1-3.SL.noarch.rpm
Changed to reflect SL vs redhat.
Included "generic" installer graphics
RedHat requires us as part of their "EULA" that we replace
the images in "anaconda-images" with our own.
anaconda-images

README.images Info on how to change the graphics used during the install
/sites/example/build/scripts/
transform.sh Script that does all the steps of
README.steps except the original copying
of the example tree over to the new site
make.site.from.release.sh Script that will take a Enterprise 3 tree
and make a site out of it. Tested with
cel3(CERN) and Fermi Linux . Called by
make.new.site.sh
make.new.site.sh Script that will take either a Enterprise 3 tree
or the example site and make a site out of it.

/contrib/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The packges in this section have been contributed by various people. They
are presented AS IS and there is no guarantee of them working. These packages
are NOT supported by us. They will only get security updates if the
contributor provides them. If you have questions about them then ask the
contributor.
There are some rules to follow to be able to contribute to this area. These
rules might adjust some.
1- Contract Troy Dawson <[log in to unmask]> with the rpm's that you wish to
contribute. If Troy doesn't personally know you, be prepared with some some
way to show him that you can be trusted. He is a nice guy but
he also is very concerned that this contrib section doesn't get abused.
2- The contributed rpm's must be able to go into a standard Scientific
Linux 3.0.x release without any extra outside rpms. If extra rpm's are
required, they must be supplied. All extra rpm's supplied must meet the
same criteria as the main rpm's.
3- For each rpm, the source rpm (src.rpm) must be provided.
4- For each source rpm, you must provide where you got it.
5- Both rpm's and srpm's must be digitally signed.
6- Rpms must be freely distributable.
We understand this sounds like alot of work, but once you do it once, it
becomes much easier.

MISC NOTES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upgrades from prior versions.
UPDATES are NOT supported for all versions of SL . This is NOT
something that we changed. Future releases may support upgrading
from SL 3.0.1 to future version of SL 3.0.x.
UPDATES will NOT work from anything except RedHat AS 2.1.

HARDWARE SPECIFIC ISSUES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ATI 9600/9700/9800 Video card
The version of X included here does NOT support these video cards very
well. If you have one of these cards then you should do a text install
and at the "X" screen select "vesa". This should be enough to get
installed. You can either stay with the "vesa" driver or download and
install the "X" driver from www.ati.com . See
http://www.ati.com/support/drivers/linux/radeon-linux.html
See http://bugzilla.redhat.com bug id 111948
Ethernet devices based on
"Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Yakou Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T
Adapter" do not work out of the box. A driver is available from
http://www.marvell.com
Cisco Aironet 350 wireless ethernet card
If you install Windows patch xxx in addition to upgrading the windows
driver it also upgrades the firmware in the Cisco 350 wireless card.
Info from Cisco follows. The "good" firmware is 4.25.30 or 1.6.7 or 1.5 .
If it is 5.20.17 then it is the BAD firmware. I got these firmware
versions from the Cisco website.
"Recommended repair is a firmware down-grade of the Cisco Aironet 350
PCMCIA network interface card as Cisco has not released a updated Linux
for the upgraded firmware as of yet."
3com 905 ethernet (Not the A or B or C version)
Seems like orginal 905 does not work but 905a does.
Make sure Plug-n-Play if OFF in your bios. This has
made some 905's work.
Also seems like there is a kernel bug tickled by kudzu. So
to get this card to work you will need to turn kudzu off.
chkconfig --level 35 kudzu off
Intel 965 based motherboards
Intel does not include a PATA(IDE) controller on the 965 chipset.
Most motherboard vendors are including a PATA(IDE) controller but
some are not compatible with the 308 kernel. You can try the
"use-generic-ide" kernel boot option. It has worked with some
pata controllers.
Some motherboard vendors are using a non intel sata controller
that is not compatible with the 308 kernel.
Some motherboard vendors are using a non intel ethernet controller
that is not compatible with the 308 kernel.
So research this issue before buying a Intel 965 based
motherboard.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SOFTWARE ISSUES/BUGS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
XFree86 and ATI
After the successful install (again using the graphical X-windows
install) and after what appears
to be a successful boot up, I get a blank screen and just sits there.
Both the Radeon and Nvidia driver in this XFree86 4.3.0 release does
not detect that you are using the digital port of flat panel monitors.
The easy thing to do is plug into the analog port until you can get
past the install.
sgi_fam with tcpwrappers(/etc/hosts.deny)
Error messages /var/log/secure such as
Jan 22 12:33:33 systemname xinetd[25122]: FAIL: sgi_fam libwrap
from=<no address>
Jan 22 12:33:33 systemname xinetd[3819]: START: sgi_fam pid=25123
from=<no address>Jan 22 12:33:33 systemname xinetd[25123]: FAIL:
sgi_fam libwrap from=<no address>
Only solution so far is to change /etc/hosts.allow to allow sgi_fam
with
fam: ALL
This could be a security risk so you must decide.
redhat-config-packages
This rpm only installs packages via cdrom. It is not useful.
It does NOT work so do NOT try to use it. Use yum instead.
It is useful. It is only included here because rpms have dependencies
on it and I do not want to change those to remove the dependencies.
/usr/X11R6/lib
The "final link" to each of the libraries is missing.
Should be
libX11.so.6.2 <- libX11.so.6 <- libX11.so
But is
libX11.so.6.2 <- libX11.so.6
Solution is to install Xfree86-devel. This rpm will make the
missing links.

Scientific Linux 3.0.8 Release Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
The following topics are covered in this document:
o Changes to the Scientific Linux installation program
(Anaconda)
o General information
o Kernel-related information
o Changes to drivers and hardware support
o Package Changelogs
o Changes to packages
Changes to the Scientific Linux Installation Program (Anaconda)
The following section includes information specific to the Scientific
Linux installation program, Anaconda.
Note
In order to upgrade an already-installed Scientific Linux 3.0.x system
to 3.0.8, you must use yum or apt to update those packages that
have changed. The use of Anaconda to upgrade to 3.0.8 is not supported.
Use Anaconda only to perform a fresh install of Scientific Linux 3.0.8.
General Information
This section contains general information not specific to any other
section of this document.
o Beginning in Scientific Linux 3.0.8, the Mozilla Suite
has been replaced by Seamonkey, the Internet application suite from
the Mozilla Foundation that includes a Web browser, email and
newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editor. Users of the
Mozilla Suite are advised to transition to Seamonkey, which offers the
same application functionality and shares the same "Mozilla
Application Suite" code base as the legacy Mozilla Suite, which is no
longer maintained by the Mozilla Foundation and subsequently will not
be regularly updated for bug and security fixes.
While this change will have no immediate impact on users other than
securing the long-term availability of security fixes, it introduces
substantial changes in the Browser API and ABI. Therefore,
applications that depend on those APIs (for example, browser plugins)
may need to be upgraded as well. Current Firefox plugins will work
with the Seamonkey Navigator Web browser.
o Scientific Linux 3.0.8 now supports quad-core AMD processors.
Kernel-Related Information
This section contains information related to the Scientific
Linux 3.0.8 kernel.
o A new tunable parameter for virtual memory is now available in
Scientific Linux 3.0.8: /proc/sys/vm/vm_defragment. This tunable
parameter controls the number of retries for 32K and 64K allocations
following defragmentation attempts.
The default value for /proc/sys/vm/vm_defragment is "0" and has the
default behavior. Setting the value to greater than "1" will increase
the retries of defragmentation attempts for 32K and 64K allocations.
o Diskdump support for the QLogic Fibre Channel HBA (qla2xxx) and the
LSI Logic MegaRAID Serial Attached SCSI HBA (megaraid_sas) have been
added to Scientific Linux 3.0.8.
o Starting with Scientific Linux 3.0.8, there is no need to
input the acpi=noirq boot option at the boot prompt for the IBM x336,
x260, and x460 platforms. The kernel now automatically detects the
platforms and sets the option.
Changes to Drivers and Hardware Support
This update includes bug fixes for a number of drivers. The more
significant driver updates are listed below. In some cases, the original
driver has been preserved under a different name, and is available as a
non-default alternative for organizations that wish to migrate their
driver configuration to the latest versions at a later time.
Note
The migration to the latest drivers should be completed before the next
Scientific Linux update is applied, because in most cases only one
older-revision driver will be preserved for each update.
These release notes also indicate which older-revision drivers have been
removed from this kernel update. These drivers have the base driver name
with the revision digits appended; for example, megaraid_2002.o. You must
remove these drivers from /etc/modules.conf before installing this kernel
update.
Keep in mind that the only definitive way to determine what drivers are
being used is to review the contents of /etc/modules.conf. Use of the
lsmod command is not a substitute for examining this file.
The following device drivers are new or updated in Scientific Linux 3.0.8:
o Added the Adaptec Serial Attached SCSI (adp94xx)
Note
On multi-node IBM x460 (x3950), after installing
Scientific Linux 3.0.8 in single node and then merging into a two-node
configuration, in order to use the storage adapter (Adaptec 9410 SAS
or ServerRAID) located on the second node, the following steps must be
taken:
1. After kudzu detects the storage adapter from the second node,
invoke the following command as root:
/sbin/new-kernel-pkg --install --mkinitrd `uname -r`
This will ensure that on next boot, the device driver for the
second node will be loaded automatically.
2. Manually load the module by running one of the following command
as root.
o If the second node has the Adaptec 9410:
/sbin/modprobe adp94xx
o If the second node has the Adaptec ServerRAID 8i:
/sbin/modprobe aacraid
o Added the Dell Systems Management Base Driver (dcdbas)
o Updated the QLogic Fibre Channel HBA (qla2xxx) driver to 7.07.04b6
version with new firmware
o Updated the Compaq SMART Array controller (cciss) driver to version
2.4.60.RH1
o Updated the Emulex LightPulse Fibre Channel HBA (lpfc) driver to 7.3.6
o Updated the Broadcom Tigon3 (tg3) network driver to 3.52RH
o Updated the Intel PRO/1000 (e1000) network driver to 7.0.33-k2
o Updated the Broadcom NetXtreme II (bnx2) network driver to 1.4.38
o Updated the NVIDIA nForce (forcedeth) driver to 0.30 with added
ethtool and MCP51/MCP55 sound support
