A few notes:
 | Wherever possible, we have tried to stick to packages which are installed with the Standard Operating System. We suggest newer versions only when significant enhancements or bugfixes are present in those versions. |
| Packages marked with a + are those in which minor version upgrades are likely to cause no compatibility problems. |
| If you find serious problems with any of the packages on the list, please let us know |
| If you come across installation or configuration tips which would be useful to your fellow collaboration members, please let us know and we will post them here. |

Compilation Error referring to linux/AtomicCount.cxx with ZThreads 2.2.10 & RH 8.0:
This appears to be a problem with the header files which RedHat distributes. To fix it, go to your ZThread source directory, paste these commands, then re-run make.
mkdir include/asm ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.4/include/asm-i386/atomic.h ./include/asm/atomic.h
