DESCRIPTION:   This release provides updated firmware for the latest
               maintenance releases of the Hewlett-Packard Integrated
               Lights-Out Management Controller.  This Softpaq is used
               for remote iLO firmware update via the iLO web-based 
               interface, iLO CLP interface or the iLO XML scripting process.  

New features -

1. Added option to enable High Performance Mouse within the remote console.  
The High Performance Mouse improves mouse response and synchronization and is  
supported on ProLiant servers running Microsoft Windows 2003 or Windows 2000 
Service Pack 3 or later.

For the best performance, run the HP Online Configuration Utility for
Windows 2003/2000 with the /mouse option to optimize the server mouse settings
and use the remote console (not dual cursor).

Note: Disable High Performance Mouse support to use remote console during a 
SmartStart assisted operating system installation.

The High Performance Mouse option can be enabled or disabled via XML scripting 
using the following command.

<RIBCL VERSION="2.0">
 <LOGIN USER_LOGIN="adminname" PASSWORD="password">
   <RIB_INFO MODE="write">
     <MOD_GLOBAL_SETTINGS>
       <HIGH_PERFORMANCE_MOUSE VALUE="Yes" /> 
     </MOD_GLOBAL_SETTINGS>
   </RIB_INFO>
  </LOGIN>
 </RIBCL>

2. Support for Firefox 1.0 browser running from Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation
   3.0 or Novell Linux Desktop.

   Note:  Firefox is very strict when handling website certificates.  When using
   iLO's default self-signed certificate, do not choose "Accept this certificate
   permanently" on the certificate dialog box.


Problems fixed from last release -

1.  Updated the iLO Power Regulator feature on ProLiant servers with Intel XEON  
    processors with EM64T technology to correct the problem where the setting 
    will not work until the option is initially set through RBSU.

2.  Correctly disable options on iLO Power Regulator web page on servers that do not
    Support Dynamic Power Regulation.

3.  Corrected operation of the oemhp_rcport & oemhp_vmport.  Previously, the
    oemhp_rcport was setting the vmport and vice versa.
