IBM Lotus Sametime 7.5 Release Notes Known limitations, problems, and workarounds
Do not use certain characters in password for recorded meeting
A Recorded Meeting may not playback correctly if you have used i18n (internationalized/localized)
characters in the meeting password. Do not use i18n characters in recorded meeting passwords.
Do not use double quotes in user name
Logging in as a LDAP user whose name contains double quotes (" ") will cause an error. Do not use
double quotes in a user's name.
Invited Servers - 7.0 to 7.5 whiteboard pointer discrepancies
With a Sametime 7.5 and Sametime 7.0 invited environment, there can be discrepancies in the
whiteboard tool's pointer icons. In Sametime 7.5, the pointer tool was replaced by a new "stamp" tool.
The previous whiteboard pointer tool allowed for selection from a variety of images; with Sametime 7.5,
only one stamp image is available.
When a 7.0 user places various pointer images on the whiteboard, they will appear on the 7.5 whiteboard
correctly, with the exception of the image of the "pointing finger"; this will appear as the stamp image
instead (a gold star).
Linux - Crash when using the IBM JVM 1.4.2 with Firefox
With certain configurations on Linux, using the IBM JVM 1.4.2 and the Firefox browser, the Meeting Room
Client can crash.
The Firefox help indicates that it is built with gcc3.2, and that any Java plug-in to be used with Firefox
must also be built with gcc3.2. The standard libjavaplugin_oji.so that is linked to the Firefox
plug-ins directory is not built with gcc3.2 in IBM's distribution; you must link the
libjavaplugin_ojigcc3.so instead.
From the Firefox plug-ins directory, execute the following command:
ln -s /opt/IBMJava2-142/jre/bin/libjavaplugin_ojigcc3.so
libjavaplugin_oji.so
With this change, the Meeting Room Client loads successfully, and the browser will not crash.
