64 and 32 bit OS Support
The Sonnet Suites support either 32 or 64 bit operating systems. However, Sonnet requires 32 bit support to run on 64 bit Linux, which may require additional compatibility libraries to be installed, depending on what packages were selected during the operating system installation. These packages include LSB, XFree86-Mesa-libGL, libstdcc++, libgcc, XFree86-libs, fontconfig.
Adobe Reader
There is a known compatibility issue with specific versions of Adobe Reader 8 and 9 on Linux platforms, where links in the Sonnet manuals do not work properly. Sonnet recommends either to downgrade to Adobe Reader 7, or to use an open source PDF reader such as Xpdf (available through up2date or yum update manager).
