SRS will *not* work on RHEL 6, due to the fact that it includes a rewritten GDM 
Display Manager which dropped functionality for multi-seat support required by 
Sun Ray software.

We have worked with Oracle Linux 6 to get that functionality ported in, but it 
has not been extensively tested at this time, as we don't officially support OL 
6 yet. It would be interesting to hear of any experiences using OL 6. We are of 
course fully committed to supporting Sun Ray on Oracle Linux, and will announce 
support for Oracle Linux 6 at some point in the future.

At this point in time, Red Hat still refuses to accept the multi-seat patch 
required for Sun Ray, so the prognosis going forward with Sun Ray on Red Hat is 
unclear.

A quick Google search shows there is a change in GDM that prevents SRSS from

It's an old bug though with no updates since January
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=586487

Anyone tried installing SRSS on RHEL6 recently?

I'd really like to move to RHEL6 because glibc is much newer and supports
Firefox 4/5&  Google Chrome.
We recently switched everything over to Google Apps so running browsers with
the latest and greatest javascript engines would be nice.

That gdm bug relates to gdm 2.28 in particular and I recently downloaded
RHEL6 and it ships with gdm 2.30.

I think we're running RHEL5.3. Looks like RHEL5.5 is up on the Red Hat site.
Anyone know if that supports Firefox 4&5 or Chrome?
If it did I could live without RHEL6 for the time being :)
