HP Remote Graphics Software 7.0

●
/etc/X11/xorg.conf—The configuration file for the X Server will be modified to load the
rge extension.
●
/etc/pam.d/rgsender—This configuration file will be modified to allow the RGS Sender
to interact with the currently supported PAM authentication.
●
/etc/pam.d/gdm*, /etc/pam.d/kdm*, /etc/pam.d/xdm*—These configuration files
will be modified to ensure proper PAM authentication window manager support for the RGS
Sender process. If a different window manager is in use, that file must be manually
configured.
NOTE: The file rgsender_config_64-*.rpm that performs these automated
customizations can also be run independently of the installation script.
IMPORTANT: This automated step must be performed after any actions that install their own X
Server configuration files because these files are modified to load the rge module required for
proper RGS Sender functionality. If these files are replaced or modified later, then the
modifications must be performed manually as described below.
If you choose not to use the automatic customization, perform the following steps:
1. Add the "rge" extension to the X Server configuration file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf). In the
Module section of this file, add the following line:
Load "rge"
Next, you need to disable the Composite extension. To do this, add this line in the Extensions
section:
Option "Composite" "Disable"
2. If you are using the GNOME Desktop Manager or KDE Desktop Manager, add the following line
to the files listed below:
session optional pam_rg.so
Files (and all related derivatives):
/etc/pam.d/gdm
/etc/pam.d/kdm
/etc/pam.d/xdm
3. Some Linux distribution versions utilize newer or older PAM support modules and support
conventions. The file rgsender_config_64-*.rpm performs configuration analysis to
determine types of pam_unix*.so, pam_env*.so, common-auth, and pam_stack that might
apply to your configuration for the /etc/pam.d/rgsender configuration file. If you choose to
do all of your own customizations manually, please run rgsender_config_64-*.rpm at least
once on a test system to determine an example of any customizations that you might need in
your current environment.
If another desktop manager, such as Enlightenment, is being used, you will need to make similar
changes to the PAM configuration file used by it. Consult your Linux and Desktop Manager
documentation for further information.
If the PAM system has been configured to use custom PAM authentication modules, then you may
need to manually configure the PAM module that is used by the RGS Sender. You should consult
your Linux documentation when configuring PAM. If you are using a custom PAM authentication
module called libpam_custom.1, you might need to edit the PAM configuration file /etc/pam.d/
