本月18日,Mandrake推出万众瞩目的Mandrake8.2正式版-总体表现相当不错,Redhat当然不会视之不理。3月19日,Redhat在它的ftp站点上放上了最新Beta版7.2.92Skipjack.
Mandrake每出一个Beta版都会在主页上发布消息请大家试用-而Redhat的风格是只发布正式版的消息。不过Beta版会在它的ftp站点ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/beta上发布。可能大家注意到了前几天最新建立的skipjack文件夹一直进不去,不过昨天这个版本7.2.92终于发布了。共有5张盘ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/beta/skipjack/en/iso/i386/
下面是Red Hat Linux 7.2.92 Release Notes

Anaconda/Installer Notes
Miscellaneous
* The standalone upgrade mode (typing linux upgrade at the boot
prompt) is no longer supported.
* Installation from an NFS directory that contains all of the
required ISO files is now supported. Additionally, if a file
called updates.img exists in the directory from which you install,
then it will be used for Anaconda updates.
Refer to the file install-methods.txt in the Anaconda RPM package
for detailed information on the various ways to install Red Hat
Linux, as well as how to apply Anaconda updates.
* ISO images now have an md5sum embedded in them. To test the
checksum integrity of an ISO image, type linux mediacheck at the
installation boot prompt. The installation program will prompt you
to insert a CD and select OK to perform the checksum operation.
This checksum operation can be performed on any Red Hat Linux CD
and in any order. It is strongly recommended to perform this
operation on any Red Hat Linux CD that were created from
downloaded ISO images. This procedure only works with CD-based
installations.

Distribution General Notes
There are observed issues upgrading Red Hat Linux 6.x, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, and
7.2.92 systems running Ximian GNOME. The issue is caused by version
overlap between the official Red Hat Linux RPMs and the Ximian RPMs. Please
be aware that this is a configuration unsupported by Red Hat. You have
several choices in resolving this issue:
* You may remove Ximian GNOME from your Red Hat Linux system prior
to upgrading Red Hat Linux.
* You may upgrade Red Hat Linux, and then immediately reinstall
Ximian GNOME.
* You may upgrade Red Hat Linux, and then immediately remove all
remaining Ximian RPMs, and replace them with the corresponding Red
Hat Linux RPMs.
You must resolve the version overlap using one of the above methods.
Failure to do so will result in an unstable GNOME configuration.
* KDE has been updated to 3.0.0 and includes usability enhancements
as well as some new applications and features.
Anti-aliased fonts may appear to be non-functioning after the
upgrade to KDE 3.0.0. This issue is related to a feature addition:
Due to the Qt 3.0 update, it is now possible to use anti-aliased
and non-antialiased fonts at the same time in Qt applications.
Since the default fonts for the KDE desktop environment are bitmap
fonts and therefore can not be anti-aliased, just turning on the
enable anti-aliased fonts button in KDE will not modify the look
of all applications. To get anti-aliased fonts in menus, window
titles, etc., change the fonts for these elements (for example, by
replacing Helvetica with Helmet and Courier with
Lucidatypewriter).
* Red Hat Linux now includes a port of the Debian alternatives
system, as a way to support multiple packages providing a
particular service. Every binary/file that would be in common
between the multiple packages is replaced with a symlink to /etc;
this then resolves to the version of that file for the alternative
in question. For example:
/usr/sbin/sendmail -> /etc/alternatives/mta ->
/usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail
These symlinks are added and managed by /usr/sbin/alternatives.
See man 8 alternatives for more details
Currently, Red Hat Linux offers Sendmail and Postfix as two Mail
Transport Agent (MTA) alternatives. For print daemon alternatives,
the choices are LPRng and CUPS.
The configurations for LPRng and CUPS are completely separate. If
you switch from one printing system to another, you will have to
reconfigure your printers.
* By default, the Sendmail mail transport agent (MTA) does not
accept network connections from any host other than the local
computer. If you want to configure Sendmail as a server for other
clients, please edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and change
DAEMON_OPTIONS to also listen on network devices or comment out
this option all together. You will need to regenerate
/etc/sendmail.cf by running:
m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf
Note that you must have the sendmail-cf package installed for this
to work.
* The Sendmail mail transport agent (MTA) has been update to version
8.12.2 and is no longer setuid root. Because of this, the mail
queueing functionality needs to be able to connect to the mail
server running on the local machine. Hence, DAEMON=no in
/etc/sysconfig/sendmail is now ignored.
* Formatting DocBook XML documents using the XSL stylesheet language
is now possible. For more information, refer to the xmlto(1)
manual page.
* The DocBook document type definitions (DTDs) have been merged into
one RPM package called docbook-dtds.
* The gPhoto2 package has been added to the distribution. gPhoto2 is
a software application and interface library for digital cameras.
The gPhoto2 package also includes gtKam, a graphical digital
camera interface that uses gPhoto2. Kamera, KDE integration of
digital cameras, has been added, as well. The older gphoto
application (0.4.3) is deprecated and may be removed in a future
release.
* The xscanimage program has been deprecated and may be removed in a
future release of Red Hat Linux. The xsane program should be used
instead.
* The patchutils package of utilities for manipulating patch files
is now included. Patch files are often used in software
development.
* The glibc-kernheaders package has been added and will replace the
kernel-headers package.
kernel是2.4.18, KDE是3.0cvs20020307, Gnome是Ximian Gnome
