INTV! 2.0 Release Notes

July 11, 1995



Software Changes and Known Issues

This section explains changes to the software that are not included in the documentation and also covers any known issues with the software.
Running the Statically Linked Version of INTV!
If you are using INTV! on a workstation running OpenLook, and the Motif/X11R5 libraries are not present on your system, you can run INTV! with statically-linked libraries. To use the statically-linked versions of the executables, include the -static flag on the command line. For example, the following commands will run the statically-linked versions of the station and chooser respectively:
     $INTV_HOME/station -static
     $INTV_HOME/intv -static

If the Motif/X11R5 libraries are available somewhere on your system, you should be sure to set your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to include the directory where they are located, and run the dynamically-linked version.

The LM_LICENSE_FILE and INTV_HOME Environment Variables
The INTV! software now attempts to determine the home directory of INTV! and the location of the license file automatically when it is executed, so under ordinary circumstances, there should be no need to set the INTV_HOME and LM_LICENSE_FILE variables. If these variables are set, INTV! will use their values rather than attempting to guess the location of the files.
Solaris Audio Output Devices
On Solaris machines, 1 audio output device must always be selected. If you wish to mute the audio from the station, you should deselect its audio on the Chooser's station index.
Communique! Detects INTV! Software
If you are running Communique! on the same network that you run INTV!, INTV! stations and clients will show up on From Network scans with the Communique! Conference Manager.
Multicast Route on HPs
On HP systems, if multicast capability is installed but no multicast route has been added, then no stations will appear on the chooser. In order to add a route, issue the following command while running as root:
	route add 224.0.0.0 [hostname] 0
Commands Responding to [Control] or [Alt]
Depending on the platform on which you are running, commands may work with the [Control] or the [Alt] key. If a shortcut command doesn't work with [Ctrl]+Command Key, try [Alt]+Command Key and it will work.
