YELLOW DOG LINUX v5.0.2 RELEASE NOTES

1. Hardware Support
This YDL release supports the Sony PLAYSTATION(R) 3, PPC970 and POWER5 based
IBM pSeries (beta support) as well as Apple Macintosh G3, G4, and G5 computers
While it is possible to make the provided packages (RPMs) work on other 
Power-architecture systems, it is not supported nor recommended at this 
time. Support for additional Power architecture systems is forthcoming. 

2. Wireless Support
Wireless is now supported on the PS3. Configuration instructions are available 
at the Terra Soft Solutions website:
http://www.terrasoftsolutions.com/support/solutions/ydl_5.0/ps3-wifi-config2.shtml

Support for some revisions of Apple Airport Extreme chipsets has proved to be 
difficult with limited reliability. We are actively working on fixes to 
improve the functionality and reliability of all Airport Extreme chipsets. 

Please review the Terra Soft website for information concerning support for 
other wireless devices (ie: Airport, PCMCIA, USB).

3. Bluetooth
Bluetooth devices are readily seen by Linux, but support for unique devices is
case-by-case, sometimes with a great deal of effort.

4. Enlightenment E17
A Quick Start Tutorial for YDL v5.0.2 and E17 is available as the default home 
page of Firefox as well as on-line:
http://www.terrasoftsolutions.com/support/configuration/

5. Installer Bugs
Network installs are not functional on the PS3 and only network installs are functional on IBM JS20/JS21 systems.

Kickstart installations are not supported on the PS3.

6. Userspace Bugs
Under E17, root's user menus are different than a normal users menus and contain
some invalid menu entries. To fix your menus use the following the commands:

	rm -rf /root/.e/e/applications
	cp -r /etc/skel/.e/e/applications /root/.e/e/

Some components of E17 will not shutdown cleanly and may require you to use
"Logout Now" button when prompted.

Because menu's are shared between platforms, boot-game-os will be in your menus on
non-PS3 platforms. Running boot-game-os on an Apple or pSeries machine may display
some harmless errors but will have no adverse effects on the machine.
