General notes that apply

Purpose of the Linux Hardware Matrix


The HP Workstations Linux Hardware Matrix provides per-platform advisory information
about the functionality of HP Workstations and the hardware components applicable to them,
under several Linux distributions such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), SUSE Linux Enterprise
Desktop (SLED), and Ubuntu LTS.

For similar information about Linux component support in older HP Workstations, please
refer to the Archive Linux Hardware Matrix. You can find this by searching for the platform
at www.hp.com/go/workstationsupport and choosing the Manuals content.

The Linux Hardware Matrix does not represent the issue support that you can expect
from the Linux OS distributor. Please see the section below entitled "Important Information
about OS Support.
About Linux OS release streams
As technology advances, newer releases of Linux distributions are more likely
to have sufficient support for new hardware (processors and chipset architectures,
storage controllers, etc.) than are older releases in the same streams. "As a result,
it is not often reasonable to expect older releases in the stream to enable newer
platforms."

The Linux Hardware Matrix shows information for releases that provide reasonably

navigation of the distribution, unless noted to the contrary. The releases shown are typically
the most current at the time that the platform was launched, but in some cases
an already-existing release may provide good functionality. It is advisable to apply

Typical Linux distributions support many possible
localizations. If you're installing the OS yourself, you can
make selections for language and keyboard layout during
that process. For a pre-loaded Linux OS, similar choices can
be made during the "firstboot" process. In some cases, extra
font packages may be available. HP Workstations can be
ordered with a variety of localization options that may vary by
platform.
2
HP recommends use of NVIDIA® driver 525.xx (or newer) on
NVIDIA® graphics options.
3
An Nvidia R525 driver is required for Ada generation cards
4
Intel® support for AMT varies by distribution and requires
additional software packages be added to the base OS.
Please check with the distribution vendor you have interest in.
5
For more info about Linux open-source driver support for HP
printers, please visit http://www.hplip.net.
6
Open-source support for the TPM or other security devices
varies by OS distribution. Any use of the TPM module requires
additional software supported by your preferred Linux
distributor.
