It is time to produce a spec for the next generation of the workstation image. This is to be based on SuSE 10.3 as 11.0 is too new for compiler support. We also considered Ubuntu, but the autoinstall tools for it are not yet good enough.

Supported packages

Compilers

  • Intel 10.0 and up
  • Portland
  • NAG
  • Pathscale

Desktops =

  • GNOME

Maths libraries

  • Intel MKL 10.0 and up
  • ACML 4.0
  • FFTW3 (untuned, part of SuSE)

MPI libraries

  • OpenMPI

Python modules

Visualisation

Installed but not supported

Desktops

  • KDE
  • fvwm

Maths libraries

  • ATLAS (I am prepared to install the precompiled ATLAS package but cannot tune it for every machine as there is too much variety)

Packages dropped since 10.2
