Hmm? Posted Sep 29, 2004 11:14 UTC (Wed) by heunique (guest, #728) [Link] Maybe I'm just woke up but I looked at the announcment..
No KDE at all? I see GNOME 2.8 Release Candidate, but not KDE..
Anyone tested the ISO's already?
Hetz

And Fedora test 2 is RH beta 1- not saying that Fedora is a beta... or..

Come on ...
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Beta 1 (LinuxElectrons) Posted Sep 29, 2004 13:55 UTC (Wed) by hppnq (guest, #14462) [Link] You can still download the sources, no problem.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Beta 1 (LinuxElectrons) Posted Sep 29, 2004 14:38 UTC (Wed) by ewan (subscriber, #5533) [Link] And indeed the binaries of the beta are likely to be the best platformfor initially rebuilding the sources of the final release version for projects like Whitebox etc.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Beta 1 (LinuxElectrons) Posted Sep 29, 2004 14:49 UTC (Wed) by patsoffice.com (guest, #4605) [Link] Uh, if you run a RedHat commercial distribution, this release gives you the ability to test your apps against the new version. RedHat doesn't only release this so you can help them, they do it so you can help yourself...
Oracle Support? Posted Sep 29, 2004 18:35 UTC (Wed) by rriggs (subscriber, #11598) [Link] How long before we can expect Oracle to install and run cleanly on RHEL4? We still have Oracle 9i running on RHEL2.1 because of problems (perceived or real) with RHEL3. This situation hurts because running different versions of the OS brings with it higher maintenance and support costs. I need a software compatibility list before I start testing this.
Oracle Support? Posted Sep 29, 2004 23:14 UTC (Wed) by dang (guest, #310) [Link] Hrm. I've got it running cleanly AND 9i is certified on RHEL3, so you should be able to bug Oracle and/or RH if you are having trouble.
