Known Problems
The following are Known Problems only for this HP Visualize Linux
Workstation (November 2000) release.
SIGSTOP of graphics applications can freeze system.
Cause: Putting graphics applications into the background using
SIGSTOP can freeze the graphics.
Action: There is no workaround at this time. Update your system to
the next software release as soon as it is available.
X11 hang on restart.
Cause: Restarting X after starting amd services hangs the X server.
Action: Start amd before starting the X server.
FX kernel module hangs in system with more than 3 Gbytes.
Cause: Installing the hpgfx kernel module with more than 3 Gbytes
of memory hangs the module.
Action: Install FX graphics only in systems with 3GB of memory or
less.
HPX server extensions differ from XFree86.
Cause: The XFree86-Misc extensions are not implemented by the HP
X server.
Action: There is no workaround at this time. Update your system to
the next software release as soon as it is available.
Console hangs while logging out.
Cause: Under certain situations, a user logging out of a KDE session
may experience a hang while KDE attempts to notify running
applications (e.g., running two or more Netscape browsers at exit can
cause this).
Action: If all else fails, a workaround for getting past the X server
select for this hang is issuing the command
<ctrl><alt><backspace>.
