InPerson 2.1 runs on all systems with graphics that are
supported by IRIX 5.3 or 6.1. InPerson's whiteboard only
runs on systems with graphics and overlay planes; it does
not run on Personal Irises. The audio conferencing features
are supported only on audio-capable systems: Indy, Indigo2,
Indigo, and Personal Iris 4D/35. A microphone is required,
and headphones are useful in some environments. Video
hardware is not required; static images can be used instead
of live video.

Due to a Cosmo software bug, the InPerson Option board
software should NOT be installed on systems with a Cosmo
compression board. If the indycomp images are installed, the
Cosmo board may hang and require a system reset. See the
IndyComp release notes for details.
The InPerson Option board software should not be installed
on Indy systems with the R4000/PC (the original entry-level
CPU for Indy) due to low performance. Consider upgrading the
CPU.
1.3 _O_n_l_i_n_e__R_e_l_e_a_s_e__N_o_t_e_s
After you install the online documentation for a product
(the _r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s subsystem), you can view the release notes on
your screen.
If you have a graphics system, select ``Release Notes'' from
the Help submenu of the Toolchest. This displays the
_g_r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s(1) graphical browser for the online release notes.
Refer to the _g_r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s(1) man page for information on
options to this command.
If you do not have a graphics system, you can use the
_r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s command. Refer to the _r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s(1) man page to
access online release notes.
1.4 _O_n_l_i_n_e__M_a_n__P_a_g_e_s
A man page is provided with InPerson. To access the on-line
man page, select "Man Page" from the "Help" sub-menu of the
