If you upgrade a system running IRIX 4.0.* or IRIX 5.1.* to IRIX 5.2 and you already have Impressario 1.1 installed then Impressario 1.1 should continue to work under IRIX 5.2. However, you should update to Impressario 1.2 as soon as possible after any update to IRIX 5.2 2. Once you upgrade to IRIX 5.2 do not remove Impressario 1.1. If you do, you should re-install the following subsystems from the IRIX 5.2 distribution CD (for convenience these subsystems are also found on the Impressario 1.2 CD -- see the next item): print.man.desktop print.man.relnotes print.sw.desktop 3. When you install Impressario 1.2 you will find that it has the following subsystems on the Impressario 1.2 CD: print.man.desktop print.man.relnotes print.sw.desktop As a minimum, install the default print subsystems (do not mark all the print product as 'keep' from inst). The reason this is done is that the inst procedure removes all files associated with Impressario 1.1. Some of the Impressario 1.1 files now reside in the print product and they will be removed when Impressario 1.2 is installed. So, the print product must be re-installed when Impressario 1.2 is installed. For convenience, the print product is supplied with Impressario 1.2 and it will automatically install the correct print product (assuming you do not change the set of software to be installed using the inst utility). Note that the print product shipped with IRIX 5.2 is version 1.2. The print product found on the Impressario 1.2 CD is version 1.2.1. They are both the same. The higher version number of the print product on the Impressario 1.2 CD ensures that they are installed by the inst utility when you install Impressario 1.2. 4. Do not load Impressario 1.1 (client or server software) onto an IRIX 5.2 system. There are OS patches in Impressario 1.1 which are not necessary for IRIX 5.2. If Impressario 1.1 is installed on top of IRIX 5.2, you should be aware that the following files are replaced, and their corresponding IRIX 5.2 subsystems must be reinstalled. File name Subsystem usr/lib/lpsched eoe2.sw.lp usr/lib/lputil eoe2.sw.lp usr/lib/print/lptops eoe2.sw.lp usr/bin/lp eoe2.sw.lp usr/sbin/mkcentpr eoe2.sw.lp usr/spool/lp/model/netface eoe2.sw.lp usr/lib/filetype/vadmin/printers.ftr desktop_eoe.sw.FileTypingRules usr/lib/filetype/vadmin/vadmin.ftr desktop_eoe.sw.FileTypingRules usr/etc/rshd eoe2.sw.tcp IMPORTANT: If you install Impressario 1.1 onto an IRIX 5.2 system you absolutely must re-install the above subsystems -- installing Impressario 1.2 (the correct version for IRIX 5.2) will not undo or replace the OS patches that Impressario 1.1 installed. Note: It is not possible to install a single file from a subsystem -- you have to install the entire subsystem.
