Following things have changes in UP1.1 beta: update to kernel 2.1.99 (should fix a couple of bugs with Ultra5 machines, plus one ugly bug which sometimes killed applications during fork - now there are no known bugs, just to make assure you) update to glibc-2.0.7pre3 plus sparc patches (please, if you can, test whether this update does not break anything, I haven't seen any problem, but the more people, the more proper testing). ld.so: ld-linux.so.1 and libc5 apps now should work on both sparc32 and sparc64, not only on sparc64 mouseconfig: I hope the lockup during serial installation is gone, but things about probing Xserver need still to be solved (for now, don't install Xservers when doing serial console installs - hope to fix this tomorrow) joe: fix a bug in joe, which caused improper screen size detection procps: update to 1.2.7, fixed a bug in procps which caused it not to work with shared libs other minor updates: lpr, hdparm, strace, texinfo, ypbind The colors in SBUS Xservers are not yet fixed (well, I have a patch which fixes it, but am waiting for a fix for Mach64/16+32bpp colormap handling to make a shiny new XFree86-3.3.2 RPMS). Then, modutils need to be fixed wrt. kerneld, and then I'd like if people can remind me on broken packages, so that we can have a release in a week or so. And if the sparcaudio people help us, we can have full sound support in the distribution as well ;) Then just T-shirt time and CD burning time...
