Thanks, btw, it looks like FC has gotten rid of LAPACk. I have noticed that you
are from a Math Sci place. Do you know how we can get Extras or other places to
carry these things? While we can build these things, it would really help if
there is an available repository so that people who don't want to mess with
building can have yum or something automatically update.

AFAIK, it's fairly easy to get a package into Extras if you are willing to maintain it. Some of the other repos may also be willing to carry it on request, esp. if it comes with a maintainer. LAPACK should be pretty easy to maintain, too, as it is fairly standalone and there's already a decent spec file for it.


Thanks and best wishes!

PS: On another issue, changing kernels for the apmsleep has not had any effect,
and I have given up...

Ah, well. I've actually switched to ACPI pretty permaently now, since there are patches for the radeonfb module that solve the Thinkpad ACPI suspend power-drain problem. There's a bug filed in Red Hat Bugzilla (don't have the number handy) that points to a bug in the kernel.org Bugzilla with that discussion and pointers to test kernels.

Thanks!


Google only turns up a few references, mostly to the source on Netlib
mirrors.  There's a .deb for Debian, but no RPMs.  It ought to be
straghtforward to build from source, though.
See http://www.netlib.org/slatec/.
