Hi, Regarding TeX, SL (TUV) is still with teTeX. Fedora Core 9 has moved to texlive. I've made a port of the FC9 texlive packages for SL5. They works ok so far (~100 users, 3 monthes). You can find them at : ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/linux/distributions/slsoc/5x/i386/i386/SL All texlive* packages (there are some dependencies that are also in this location). Regards.
