Hi,

I am using a laptop with external monitor. In this set up I am asked to use a wired keyboard and a wired mouse and keep the laptop lid closed. I also have a external webcam. But since my laptop lid is closed what about the 2 camera requirement.

There is no 2 camera requirements as per my knowledge. You should have an
external camera by which proctor can see you and the keyboard/systems !

So if you are using an external monitor yes laptop lid need to close.
(Proctor will ask you to do so before starting exam

Hi @chrishemb ,

If you read just 1 post above yours, there's a link to official document and information that there's only 1 external webcam required.

I am not sure why you are saying that there is a "2 camera requirement", that is not currently accurate.

Hope that clarifies,

PS: your setup appears to be ok, wired keyboard, wired mouse, laptop lid closed, external monitor, external webcam. That's also how I attend Remote Exams.

Hi -
I'm getting an "Error 36: Rebuild USB Drive" on my Mac.
I've seen that some other user were able to make it work with an older ISO version. Where can I download the previous ISO, which is also allowed for the exam?

Thank you

I uses MacBook Pro. I run a Compatibility Test in the Remote Exam Live Environment ISO image. But my Mac keyboard doesn't work. Mouse works. I can proceed settings page, but could not red hat account login because key board does not work.

Could you give me any advice?

If I am not mistaken, MacBook (Mac OS) issues are known issues regarding
Fedora support. Did you check the guide on this issue?

No, I didn't check the guide on that issue. Could you let me know that known issue?

Are there known issues with Mac systems?
Our tests passed a Macbook Pro and Macbook Air belonging to the 2016 and 2017 series.
2018 and later series of Mac systems have been found to have compatibility issues with
several Linux distributions. These issues impact the remote exam image as well.
The issues include:
• T2 security system prevents booting from an external device by default.
• 2019 Macbook Pro keyboard and touchpad doesn’t work when booted from an

external media.
• Other internal components, such as webcam, mic, and wifi adapters are not detected
by many Linux distributions.
If your system encounters these issues, use another laptop that meets the system
requirements and passes the compatibility test.
