We use it on a Mix of Win 7 and FC 15 here - our whole farm apart from some caching nodes are all LX - works 100%
We have also developed a bunch of tools around it to do caching and submission - it is pretty cusomizable. A recent version had a whole bunch of new python stuff integrated to get data out of RR into whatever you need it for. Absolute best thing about RR is that Holger is the man in charge and he always provides superb support, help and takes any suggestion you give seriously.

How is the linux integration these days? Also, how much can you customize it? We use quite a lot of python scripts for pre-render and post-render. regards stefan andersson On Thu, Aug 30, 2012 at 8:30 AM, Sandy Sutherland <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Cough .....RR......cough.............. _____________________________ Sandy Sutherland Technical Supervisor [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> _____________________________ ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] on behalf of Stefan Andersson [[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: 30 August 2012 08:13 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Trying out backburner I gave up. Didn't even work with maya, Linux permission swamp. So anyone using tractor? We are about to switch to a new dispatcher since rush is... Let's just say that it hasn't changed much the last 5 years. So we are testing everything out there.
