Software-update: Slackware 8.1 RC1

Verwijderd was vandaag de 1e die ons wist te melden dat Slackware 8.1 RC1 gereed staat om gedownload te worden. In deze RC1 zit onder andere Mozilla-1.0rc3, KDE-3.0.1, gcc-3.1 en Xfree86 4.2.0. Voor een volledige lijst met updates kun je het beste hier kijken. Hieronder een stuk van de website van slackware.

As recently reported on Slashdot, the first release candidate for Slackware 8.1 is now available on ftp.slackware.com (and hopefully some mirrors by now). Recent additions to -current include Mozilla-1.0rc3, KDE-3.0.1, and gcc-3.1. This is all leading up to what we're hoping will be the best Slackware release ever! Thanks to all the people contributing bug reports, patches, and suggestions. :-)

Slackware, is dat ongeveer hetzelfde als redhat, suse etc ?

PS. als ik deze installeer is het dan ook grafisch e.d. ?

[Laurent]

'Hetzelfde als redhat' kan je het totaal niet noemen. Slackware behoort wel tot een van de prof. distro's en zijn ook niet gemaakt voor mensen die beginnen met Linux.

Ik raad je aan om eens de install. review (NOS) door te lezen, hiermee krijg je ongeveer een beeld hoe Slackware werkt.

Of alles direct grafisch is ligt aan jou... als je XFree86 standaard al installeert en een desktop manager configt zal de desktop manager (grafisch) automagisch bij het booten opstarten. Standaard staat dit geloof ik niet nog ingesteld.

[packman]

Bwa - niet voor beginners? De harde leerschool is de beste - ik ben 7 jaar geleden toch met slack begonnen..

[Verwijderd]

eeeuh, het is een linux distro ja, en de instalatie is gelukkig niet grafisch, maar X zit er wel bij (met gnome, kde, enlightment, twm, fwm2, fwm95, windowmaker en nogwat dachtik
total instal van 8.0 is 2.1 gb

en ik zweer voor me linux bakjes bij slackware of zelfbouw :-)

het is overigens wel een van de lastigste (schijnt?? ikzelf vind juist het tegenovergestelde :-)
voor beginners niet echt geschikt...
(then again... ik doe zelfbouw linux op me sun... vandaar datik hem denk nie zo lastig vind :-)

ik gaat maar eens een isotje downloaden denk :-)

edit:

oeps, ik tik te langzaam.... is een dubbelpost geworden, sowwy :-)

(thanks to Jack S. Lai for reporting the problem and suggesting a fix)
xap/mozilla-1.0-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to mozilla-1.0. :-)

a/pkgtools-8.1.1-i386-4.tgz: Don't create /.xinitrc during the installation.
ap/mc-4.5.55-i386-6.tgz: Patched /etc/profile.d/mc.sh to fix a problem when
using /bin/ksh (reported by Brad Clarke), and to not use a $HOME/.mc directory
if we are su'ed to or from root (thanks to Tomas Szepe for noticing the
problems with the original mc.sh script and proposing a solution).
ap/tmp/workbone-2.40-i386-2.tgz: Removed empty /usr/doc/WorkBone-2.40 dir.
(this was noticed by Luis Peralta)
gnome/gaim-0.58-i386-2.tgz: Recompiled with --enable-panel.
gnome/galeon-1.2.3-i386-2.tgz: Recompiled against the Mozilla CVS
MOZILLA_1_0_RELEASE sources (see below).

n/sendmail-8.12.4-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to sendmail-8.12.4.
n/sendmail-cf-8.12.4-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to config files for sendmail-8.12.4.

xap/mozilla-1.0_cvs-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to the MOZILLA_1_0_RELEASE sources

chance that we will need to take further changes, it is highly probable
that this is the source we will release as Mozilla 1.0."
However, please note:
"Mozilla 1.0 has not been released yet. If you look at the user agent or
the about: page you'll see a browser that claims to be Mozilla 1.0, but
don't be fooled."
----------------------------
Sun Jun 2 21:27:28 PDT 2002
pkgtools-8.1.1-i386-3.tgz: Removed zero-length /bin/ipmask that shouldn't
have been there. You might need to reinstall the tcpip package if this
broke your ipmask binary. (thanks to Mircea Baciu for the report)
----------------------------
Sun Jun 2 17:14:07 PDT 2002
a/cxxlibs-6.2.1-i386-1.tgz: Added libstdc++.so.4.0.0 from gcc-3.1.

keymaps for Speakup.
a/pcmcia-cs-3.1.33-i386-3.tgz: Don't install /sbin/cardctl setuid root.
a/pkgtools-8.1.1-i386-2.tgz: Commented out unnecessary bug workaround
in makebootdisk.
a/syslinux-1.67-i386-1.tgz: Switched to syslinux-1.67. It seems the changes
in 1.70+ ("* Major code restructuring.") have made syslinux unstable, so we
will use syslinux-1.67 (which seems to work perfectly) for the release.
The problem with the newer versions is that kernels around 1145000 bytes
will not load, but smaller or larger ones will. In fact, I found that
padding the end of a non-booting kernel with a couple K of zeroes works
around the bug... maybe something to do with calculating the file size?
ap/ash-0.4.0-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to ash-0.4.0.
gnome/gqmpeg-0.16.0-i386-1.tgz: Added gqmpeg-0.16.0.

n/dhcpcd-1.3.22pl1-i386-3.tgz: Fix docs perms and a world-writable dir.
n/proftpd-1.2.5rc3-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to proftpd-1.2.5rc3.
bootdisks/: Regenerated using syslinux-1.67.
Added Speakup bootdisks. (also added the source for Speakup,
speakup-1.00.tar.gz, to the source/k/ directory)
Some more ham radio upgrades and additions from Arno Verhoeven:
extra/ham/logging/tlfmanual-0.5.2-noarch-1.tgz: Added tlfmanual-0.5.2.
extra/ham/logging/tlfcwkeyer-0.1-noarch-1.tgz: Added tlfcwkeyer-0.1.
extra/ham/logging/tlf-0.5.4-i386-1.tgz: Added tlf-0.5.4.
extra/ham/packet/xastir-1.1.2-i386-3.tgz: Upgraded to xastir112-20020530.
----------------------------
Sat Jun 1 15:20:00 PDT 2002
a/aaa_base-8.1.0-i386-2.tgz: Bumped version number to Slackware 8.1-rc2.
a/etc-5.0-i386-6.tgz: Fix /etc/inputrc values (should be On/Off not on/off).
a/kernel-ide-2.4.18-i386-3.tgz: Recompiled.
a/kernel-modules-2.4.18-i386-3.tgz: Recompiled.
Patched rc.modules.new for the new joystick modules.
a/pkgtools-8.1.1-i386-1.tgz: In xwmconfig, make sure $HOME/.xwmconfig is
properly replaced (this was only working for non-root users).
Added two options to upgradepkg (inspired by a discussion with Alan Brown):
--install-new: Install new packages instead of skipping them.
--reinstall: Reinstall already installed versions (the default is now
to skip packages if the exact same name-version-arch-build is installed
already, which should save a bit of time :-)
a/procps-2.0.7-i386-5.tgz: Fixed problems with top on multiprocessor machines.
a/syslinux-1.72-i386-1.tgz: Switched back to syslinux-1.72, as the boot
floppies made with 1.73 weren't working.
a/sysvinit-2.84-i386-16.tgz: Fixed typos in rc.S (reported by Naresh Donti).
d/kernel-headers-2.4.18-i386-3.tgz: Updated autoconf.h from the kernel source
package.
gnome/gnome-games-1.4.0.4-i386-2.tgz: Recompiled against the new guile package.
gnome/gnome-utils-1.4.1.2-i386-2.tgz: Recompiled against the new guile package.
gnome/gnome-vfs-1.0.5-i386-2.tgz: Don't link libsmb.so with CUPS.
gnome/gnumeric-1.0.6-i386-2.tgz: Recompiled --without-guile.
gnome/guile-1.4.1-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to guile-1.4.1.
k/kernel-source-2.4.18-noarch-4.tgz: Updated /usr/src/linux/.config to match
the new bare.i configuration.
kde/kde-i18n-fr-3.0.1-noarch-2.tgz: Rebuilt using the May 24 version of
kde-i18n-fr-3.0.1.tar.bz2.
kde/kdenetwork-3.0.1-i386-2.tgz: Merged in official patch for the ktalkd hole.
Luckily nobody ever uses this anyway...
(* Security fix *)
n/inn-2.3.3-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to inn-2.3.3.
n/mutt-1.4i-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to mutt-1.4i.
n/openssh-3.2.3p1-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to openssh-3.2.3p1.
Configured using --with-ipv4-default to avoid boot timeouts without a net.
n/sendmail-cf-8.12.3-i386-5.tgz: Updated the README.linux file in
/usr/share/sendmail (Delian Krustev noticed this was somewhat out of date).
n/sendmail-8.12.3-i386-5.tgz: Ship an initial (empty) /etc/mail/access and
/etc/mail/access.db -- without these mail won't flow if the SMTP+ACCESS config
file is used. Also, chmod several files in /etc/mail as well as
/var/run/sendmail.pid to thwart file locking DoS attacks. (* Security fix *)
n/tcpip-0.17-i386-13.tgz: Run rc.yp from rc.inet2 instead of starting NIS
directly. Don't source rc.firewall -- run it instead.
In rc.inet1, reduce the timeout for dhcpcd from 60 seconds to 10. That should
be more than enough time to get an IP address from any working DHCP server.
Support DHCP hostname in netconfig (suggested by Dennis Bijwaard).
n/yptools-2.7-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to yp-tools-2.7.
Upgraded to ypbind-mt-1.12.
Upgraded to ypserv-2.4.
Added /etc/rc.d/rc.yp init script.
x/xfree86-4.2.0-i386-5.tgz: In /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession, start xfce and
wmaker by exec'ing their xinitrc files.
xap/windowmaker-0.80.0-i386-2.tgz: Valter Ferraz Sanches pointed out that
WindowMaker uses /usr/bin/cpp for menu processing unless --no-cpp is used, so
xinitrc.wmaker was patched to use that option if /usr/bin/cpp is missing,
and was also patched to run wmaker.inst if $HOME/GNUstep is missing.
xap/xfce-3.8.16-i386-2.tgz: Patched xinitrc.xfce to install xfce config files
in $HOME/.xfce if they aren't already there.
----------------------------
Wed May 29 23:22:15 PDT 2002
a/bin-8.3.0-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to eject-2.0.12, file-3.37, and tree-1.4b2.
a/etc-5.0-i386-5.tgz: Added Eterm to /etc/termcap (thanks to Roland Dobbins).
Added missing rpc user/group (thanks to Dominik L. Borkowski).
a/gzip-1.3.3-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to gzip-1.3.3.
a/hdparm-5.1-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to hdparm-5.1.
a/jfsutils-1.0.18-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to jfsutils-1.0.18.
(also upgraded JFS kernel to jfs-2.4-1.0.18)
a/shadow-4.0.3-i386-2.tgz: Merged in adduser updates from Stuart Winter.
a/sysklogd-1.4.1-i386-6.tgz: Start klogd with -x option, which turns off
broken Oops decoding. (Reported by Georgi Chorbadzhiyski)
a/syslinux-1.73-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to syslinux-1.73.
ap/apsfilter-7.2.2-i386-2.tgz: Patched HP drivers to use the new IJS syntax.

ap/lvm-1.0.4-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to lvm-1.0.4.
ap/rexima-1.2-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to rexima-1.2.
n/ncftp-3.1.3-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to ncftp-3.1.3.
n/ntp-4.1.1a-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to ntp-4.1.1a.
n/wget-1.8.2-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to wget-1.8.2.
xap/fvwm-2.4.7-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to fvwm-2.4.7.
xap/sane-1.0.8-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to sane-1.0.8.

Wed May 29 01:41:47 PDT 2002
a/etc-5.0-i386-4.tgz: Removed .less/.lesskey from /etc/skel.
Changed permissions on /tmp/.X11-unix/ to 1777.
a/fileutils-4.1-i386-2.tgz: Don't link /bin/ln static (we have sln for that).
Patched /bin/rm to make insecure use (such as 'rm -r' in /tmp) more secure.
a/gettext-0.11.2-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to GNU gettext-0.11.2.
a/gpm-1.19.6-i386-2.tgz: Recompiled using --with-curses.
gpm-1.20.0 was tried, but it breaks dialog and seems to have other quirks.
a/less-374-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to less-374.
a/pcmcia-cs-3.1.33-i386-2.tgz: Edited rc.pcmcia to probe using yenta_socket if
the module is found.
a/procps-2.0.7-i386-4.tgz: chown root:bin /sbin/sysctl.
a/sysvinit-2.84-i386-15.tgz: Start rc.pcmcia from rc.M rather than rc.S so that
cardmgr will come back up when returning from single-user mode.
In rc.6, grep for FAIL in /etc/upsstatus, not /etc/powerstatus.
Since /sbin/update has been obsolete for some time now, we no longer start it.
Run '/etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia stop' when shutting down or going to single user.
ap/diffutils-2.8.1-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to GNU diffutils-2.8.1.
ap/ifhp-3.5.8-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to ifhp-3.5.8.

gnome/gnome-games-1.4.0.4-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to gnome-games-1.4.0.4.
gnome/gnome-libs-1.4.1.7-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to gnome-libs-1.4.1.7.
gnome/gnome-pim-1.4.6-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to gnome-pim-1.4.6.
gnome/xscreensaver-4.03_gnome-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to xscreensaver-4.03.
l/libxml2-2.4.22-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to libxml2-2.4.22.
l/libxslt-1.0.18-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to libxslt-1.0.18.
l/orbit-0.5.16-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to ORBit-0.5.16.
n/bitchx-1.0c19-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to BitchX-1.0c19.
n/links-0.97-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to links-0.97.
n/nc-1.10-i386-1.tgz: Added nc-1.10.

Removed obsolete netconfig.tty.
Patched netconfig to write out the new version of /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.

xap/imagemagick-5.4.5-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to imagemagick-5.4.5.
xap/xscreensaver-4.03-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to xscreensaver-4.03.
extra/ham/: Added extra ham radio packages from Arno Verhoeven.
rootdisks/network.dsk: Removed autoprobe for arlan, com90io, and com90xx.
rootdisks/install.?: Don't add HPFS partitions to /etc/fstab, as NTFS also
shares these partition IDs, and trying to mount an NTFS partition as HPFS
can hang the machine. At this point in time, it might be safer to assume
partitions using these IDs are actually NTFS (but it's safer still to make
no assumptions).
isolinux/README.TXT: Suggest -boot-load-size 32 when mastering the CD with
mkisofs to ensure the entire isolinux.bin is loaded, otherwise sometimes it
works... sometimes it doesn't. Thanks to Janusz Wolanski for noticing that
this needed to be bigger.
----------------------------
Sun May 26 14:48:28 PDT 2002
gnome/galeon-1.2.3-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to galeon-1.2.3.
kde/koffice-1.1.1_kde3-i386-2.tgz: Added koffice-1.1.1_kde3.
Oh, and thanks to Greg Roelofs for cleaning up the slackware.com site logo
and converting it to PNG. It looks much better! :-)

very nice, degene die dit artikel heeft gepost heeft niets voor niets gezegd

Voor een volledige lijst met updates kun je het beste hier kijken.

(deed ie om zulke lange lijstn te voorkomen mocht het nu nog niet duidelijk zijn)
