Notes for Linux users

1. /bin/bash is used in the start up scripts LSSS_HOME/{lsss,korona}/*.sh.
   These scripts may be modified to use another shell if /bin/bash is not available.

2. In order to achieve hardware graphics acceleration X might have to be configured to use 24 bit colors.

3. On 64-bit systems it might be necessary to install additional libraries in order to run
   the dongle driver that is a 32-bit application.
