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.x86_64.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) i
  	data format. CFITSIO is widely used in the astronomical community.

*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.

   	ipw3945d is needed to control the ipw3945 wireless card
*	ipw3945d is now turned on by default.  The startup script
*	looks for the ipw3945 hardware, and if it finds it
*	it starts up the ipw3945 deamon.	
   	kernel-module-ipw3945 is needed because this driver is not in
   	the standard kernel.
	
  	This driver is known to work on the Dell 820 and Dell 620.
  	It is known to NOT work on the FJS S7110 (Fujitsu).

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.

MISC
   	Added these rpms because they are important but upstream vendor did
   	not include them.

     		gv-3.6.2-2.sl5.x86_64.rpm		from Stephan Wiesand
*  		pine-4.64-3.sl.x86_64.rpm		from Dag's Repository
*			replaced by alpine

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changed RPMS compared to vendor
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installer(anaconda)

* 	anaconda-11.1.2.113-3.SL.x86_64.rpm
* 	anaconda-runtime-11.1.2.113-3.SL.x86_64.rpm
*
* 	Added kernel-module.py yum plugin during the install
  	Modified pkgorder with patches from CentOS
  	Modified installclasses/rhel.py to remove key request
  	Modified installclasses/rhel.py to include SL groups
	sites support
	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
	
*comps.xml
*
*	Updated some group names and descriptions to work better internationally
*
*	In Update 1 The Upstream Vendor changed their comps.xml files to
*	reflect a different sorting structure, as well as clean up extra
*	files from their short term linux release.
*
*	In Update 2 The Upstream Vendor added more packages to their comps.xml
*	comps-sl.xml has been changed to incorporate most of The Upstream
*	Vendors	changes.  Since we have merged their various comps.xml
*	files, our comps.xml will never really look like theirs.  But this
*	change brings ours more in line	with their Update 2 versions.

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.x86_64.rpm
	redhat-artwork-5.0.9-1.SL.2.i386.rpm
	redhat-logos-4.9.16-1.SL.6.noarch.rpm
* 	sl-release-5.2-1.x86_64.rpm
* 	sl-release-notes-5.2-1.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-2.16.0-46.sl5.x86_64.rpm
  		Changed the default theme from RHEL to EaseOfBlue
*  	pirut-1.3.28-13.sl.noarch.rpm
* 		Removed "Requires: rhn-setup-gnome"
  	rhgb-0.16.4-8.sl.1.x86_64.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)i
	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-0.300.2-8.sl.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
* 	priorities have been set on the repositories.  But you have to have
* 	yum-priorities installed for them to take effect.
    	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
     	that when we make new versions you will automatically be upgraded to
     	them.
* 	yum-conf-epel has been added so that people could use the epel yum
* 	repository.  This rpm requires both yum-provides and yum-fastestmirror

*		yum-3.2.8-10.sl.noarch.rpm
  		yum-autoupdate-1-1.SL.noarch.rpm
* 	        yum-conf-52-2.SL.noarch.rpm
*      		yum-conf-5x-1-5.SL.noarch.rpm
* 		yum-conf-epel-5-1.noarch.rpm
*		yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.3-6.el5_2.6.noarch.rpm
*		yum-updatesd-0.9-2.sl.noarch.rpm


Apache
   	Changed index.html to not have Upstream Vendor info but to
   	have SL info.

*      httpd-2.2.3-11.sl5.3.1.x86_64.rpm
*      httpd-devel-2.2.3-11.sl5.3.1.x86_64.rpm
*      httpd-manual-2.2.3-11.sl5.3.1.x86_64.rpm
*      mod_ssl-2.2.3-11.sl5.3.1.x86_64.rpm
*	httpd-devel-2.2.3-11.sl5.3.1.i386.rpm
