Audio Might Not Work
In Red Hat Linux 9, audio drivers and audio output randomly fail in some Linux
applications. The audio drivers in Red Hat Linux 9 sometimes do not play or record
properly.
This is a known Linux bug and is currently under investigation.
Installing Linux in Multi-Card Environment
Requires Closing Microsoft Windows Server 2003
In Red Hat Linux 9, when installing Linux in a multi-card environment, you must
close any open sessions of Microsoft Windows Server 2003, since there might be a
conflict with the installation.
Failure to close Microsoft Windows Server 2003 before starting the installation of
Linux results in a failed installation.
After completing the Linux installation, both Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and
Linux can run simultaneously.
Fully Functional and Configured Network
Required for Linux Graphical User Interface to
Work on System Monitor
In Red Hat Linux 9, in order for the X server to work, you must have a fully
functional network connection to both the SunPCi III card and the host workstation.
If there is no network connection, the X server will not start up. The X server allows
you to use the Linux graphical user interface.
These requirements apply only to installations that use a system monitor. If you
configure Linux to use an external monitor to view SunPCi III, this issue is not
applicable.
