Hello All--

I read the documentation (ovp_ovpsim_specification.pdf), to find out my installation options with regard hardware, but I thinks is not clear if ovpsim support running in a 64-bit host machine.

I found that I can use winxp (which it is what I am using for evaluation) and fedora core 4.

So far I know the following:

Hardware platform: x86 32 bits
x86 64 bits ????
OS: winxp 32 bits
winxp 64 bits ????
linux fedora core 4 32 bits
linux fedora core 4 64 bits ?????

is OVPsim compatible with red hat enterprise linux ws release 4 (nahant update 5) running in a x86_64bit machine?

OVPsim is supported on Windows XP 32-bit and Linux Fedora Core 12 32-bit.

These are the operating systems and hardware platforms that are fully verified by Imperas.

OVPsim has been shown to work on other derived Linux platforms and also on 64-bit platforms running 32-bit compatibility mode.

OVPsim has been shown to work on Windows 7 platforms with some caveats with respect to the security features incorrectly identifying programs due to their naming!

Please be aware that to run on a 64-bit host requires that the 32-bit compatability mode libraries have been installed. All OVP applications are 32-bit.

You may find that the Linux installer (.sfx file extension) does not execute with an error such as
