Hi Brian-

I'm cc'ing this to idvusers since I caused some confusion.

See my retractment of this statement in my response to Ken.

Sorry for the confusion.  I believe it will run under 7.3
and higher, including Fedora.  I'm running it on 9.0 and
another developer is running under Fedora Core 1.  We had some
problems with the SMP kernal under Fedora, but these seem to
be fixed with the latest updates.  Unfortunately we no longer
have any 7.X boxes around to test.  Sun's compatibility page
for 1.4.2 is at:
