NOTE As of the September 2002 11i release, HP 3D Graphics are no longer supported on
PA-RISC systems older than 2.0. The 3D graphics code is now optimized for PA 2.0
(64-bit capable) processors and will not execute on older PA-RISC microprocessors.
If you have an older PA-RISC workstation and need local 3D graphics support, HP
recommends that you not update to the September 2002 release (or later) of the
Technical Computing (TCOE) or Minimal Computing (MCOE) Operating Environments.
The previous releases of HP-UX 11i v1 contain 3D graphics code that will execute on any
PA-RISC microprocessor.
You can determine the PA version with the System Administration Manager (SAM) by
selecting “Performance Monitors” and then “System Properties.” The PA version appears
on the line labeled “CPU Version.”
