Dell Chassis Cable Lengths and Video Resolutions
In order to maintain video quality, Raritan recommends using the
following cable lengths and video resolutions when you are connecting to
Dell blade chassis from the Dominion KX II:
Cable length Video resolution
50 ft. 1024x768x60
50 ft. 1280x1024x60
30 ft. 1600x1200x60
Resolving Fedora Core Focus
Using the Multi-Platform Client (MPC), occasionally there is an inability to
log in to a Dominion KX II device or to access KVM target servers
(Windows, SUSE, and so forth). In addition, the Ctrl+Alt+M key
combination may not bring up the Keyboard Shortcut menu. This
situation occurs with the following client configuration: Fedora Core 6
and Firefox 1.5 or 2.0.
Through testing, it has been determined that installation of libXp resolves
window focusing issues with Fedora Core 6. Raritan has tested with
libXp-1.0.0.8.i386.rpm; this resolved all of the keyboard focus and
popup-menu problems.
Note: libXp is also required for the SeaMonkey (formerly Mozilla)
browser to work with the Java plug in.
Running VKC on Fedora with FireFox 3.0.x and JRE 1.5.0_16
If you are accessing the Dominion KX II using VKC and are using Fedora
with FireFox 3.0.x and JRE 1.5.0_16, the browser hangs when the
application loads the Port Access page. This is a known issue only when
using Fedora.
