+
+
+    KNOWN ISSUES
+
+      * Sometimes an avatar's textures stay "white" for an extended
+        period of time with ClothingLayerProtection enabled. The
+        workaround is to set this to FALSE in Advanced > Debug
+        Settings.
+
+      * Eyes get stuck looking sideways with Private Look At enabled.
+
+      * Tooltips don't disappear with mouseclicks or when your mouse
+        moves from a specific control. The workaround for this is to
+        clear the tooltip with your mousewheel or set ToolTipDelay to
+        999999 in the Debug Settings.
+
+      * Some animations may not display their joints correctly.
+
+      * Creating new Alpha or Tattoo layers only works in the
+        Inventory.
+
+      * Avatar layers may appear invisible when using HTTP textures.
+        The workaround for this is to copy llkdu from a Second Life
+        1.23 install into the main Imprudence folder.
+
+      * While sitting on an object, your avatar may appear invisible
+        to users of unpatched viewers based on 1.22 or lower, such as
+        Hippo Viewer 5.0.1. See VWR-9137 for more info.
+
+      * Streaming audio/video that use the AAC codec will have no
+        sound. This is caused by our inability to distribute
+        libgstfaad due to licensing reasons.
+
+      * Sometimes inworld sounds (OpenAL) stops working on Windows XP.
+        A relog usually fixes the problem.
+
+
+    KNOWN ISSUES WITH OPENSIM
+
+      If you're using Imprudence to explore the larger metaverse, here
+      are a few OpenSim bugs that you should be aware of:
+
+      * Clearing cache causes "body parts not found" error and your
+        avatar to login as a cloud. This will also happen on first
+        login to many OpenSim grids. The workaround is to change your
+        shape then relog.
+
+      * Megaregion teleports fail except in the root (SW) region.
+
+      * The "Cancel" button does not appear during teleports.
+
+      * When sitting, the camera's default center is the root prim,
+        not the prim you're actually sitting on.
+
+      * OpenSims using CS2JK to bake avatar textures might corrupt an
+        avatar's appearance (looking "rainbow" or "checker-boarded")
+        when using openjpeg. A rebake will generally fix this.
+
+      * Sometimes OpenSim loses an avatar's appearance, causing
+        changing clothing to fail and the avatar to permanently look
+        white, even after a rebake or a relog.
+
+      * Sometimes prims or land become corrupted (i.e. look
+        "rainbow"). The workaround for this is to copy llkdu from a
+        Second Life 1.23 install into the main Imprudence folder.
+
+      * Creating new outfits causes the viewer to crash on OpenSim.
