   Note -

   If you try to run a graphics test on a test machine that is not running OPEN LOOK, and you are running the SunVTS TTY interface on the test machine monitor, the graphics test may fail. You can avoid this failure by either running the SunVTS TTY interface on a terminal attached to a serial port on the test machine, or you can run the TTY interface from a remote machine.
