Mac users: rNMR requires a two-button mouse (CTRL+"click" is not sufficient). On most systems, the mouse/trackpad can be configured to operate with a second button, check your system settings. Also, rNMR is only compatible with versions of Mac OS X that come with X11 preinstalled (version 10.5 and higher). rNMR may run on older versions if X11 is installed separately, but we can not gaurantee its performance.
Linux users: rNMR is supported the Linux distributions listed below.
- Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) and up
- Fedora 11 (Leonidas) and up
- Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 (Nahant) and up
rNMR may run on other distributions but we can not gaurantee its performance.
Please refer to the rNMR manual for information on using rNMR.
