Troubleshooting

work for most systems… but if not, try manually playing with mixer settings via the alsamixer in a terminal window or via your favorite mixer application.

JACK Sound Server:

JACK is a sound server that interfaces with the ALSA drivers. Once installed and configured on your machine, this is your sound.

8.User-started X environments (startx) do not reliably support outside connections:

Users who manually start X desktops (such as with startx ) from the console command line will find that outside access attempts may not properly connect or be authenticated. This stems primarily from incomplete PAM session management and permissions to the console. Users should avoid this condition and achieve login management through init-level 5 of the X server.

9.Improperly configured /etc/hosts table (Linux only):

The default on RedHat Linux is to bind the machine name to the loopback interface in the /etc/hosts file:

127.0.0.1blade2 localhost.localdomain

The RGS Sender will not accept remote connections with this configuration. Edit the /etc/hosts file and bind the machine name to its proper IP address as follows:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

88.1.89.122 blade2

blade2.bigmoney.com

10.Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) support:

Release 4.0.0 for Linux requires Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) support to be installed prior to RGS installation. If the RGS installation script runs on a system without ALSA installed, the subsequent JACK Audio Connection Kit (JACK) built will not be compatible with ALSA loaded anytime after the fact. If this occurs, first install the necessary ALSA support drivers and libraries and then re run the JACK install script as:

/opt/hpremote/rgreceiver/hp_rgs_4_audiosupport/rgs_audio_sup port install

and answer "yes" to the prompts to re-install JACK.

For information on any additional issues and limitations, see the release notes on the HP Remote Graphics Software CD.
