| Key Resolved Issues |
|---|
|
31981. If a tablet is configured for left handed orientation or the tablet is mapped to a single monitor in a multi-monitor setup, a script must be run on the workstation to configure the tablet. This script must be run each time a session is connected or when a tablet is connected to the client during a session. The tablet configuration commands must not be entered until the tablet is recognized by the Wacom driver running on the workstation, which can take 15 seconds or more after connecting a session. |
|
33697. Fixed issue where the host card PCIe enumeration exceeds 1 second. |
|
29881. The client id was not set to 1 when using MAC address in DHCP option 61. This caused some DHCP servers to not receive an IP address. |
| Key Known Issues |
|---|
|
9418. Customer reports of PCoIP devices crashing when many devices are simultaneously running on the fall-back IP address. Workaround: Set the Enable Static IP Fallback to false via PCoIP Management Console. |
|
29742. Wacom tablets often failing to be mapped to the required monitor in the session. Workaround: to disconnect/connect a session, run the required script and the tablets are mapped. |
|
36934. Audio may not work when using Linux. Workaround: downgrade to firmware 4.7.1 |
