[AG-TECH] Running the Access Grid software on Fedora 8



G’day all (apologies for any cross posting)

 

I thought I would write this brief email to highlight a couple of things in regards to running the Access Grid software on Fedora 8.

 

·         I am currently writing a installation guide for Fedora 8 (listed on the AG website) that still requires a lot of work;

 

·         There are some issues with using the new “PulseAudio”, in which may cause the AG software to not work initially.

 

·         The current support for Fedora 8 is for i368 (Thanks Doug for making this happen so soon);

 

Therefore, my advice for anyone considering upgrading to Fedora 8 would be to wait a little longer, as there are some current issues we are currently trying to sort out.

 

I have managed to install and get working the AG software on Fedora 8, but due to running out of time, I haven’t had a chance to document all of the issues that I have already come across!  I am hoping to document and highlight any potential issues by early next week.

 

I would be happy to receive any comments from those who cannot wait on issues you had and how you over came these problems.

 

Thanks for your time,

Jason.
