officially supported by Ixia. If you attempt to install or run
IxANVL on any version of Windows OS other than the U.S. English

Important Note:
Java has a known caveat that requires an extra rpm file,
xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-31.i386.rpm, that sometimes is not
installed by default on an RHE 5.0 machine. As the IxANVL installer
is a Java-based application, it is required that this file be installed
in order to function normally. Please refer to the Linux installation
notes below for a workaround to fix this problem.
