Well; if we can back to the topic, I'm interested to ask if anyone here in the forum currently has tested the new "Silicon Graphics Prism Deskside", as far as I know, some companies are buying the new workstation from SGI, to accomplish several kind of tasks.
I have played with one a little, especially with the IRIX binary x-lator... Looked to work OK to me with a visualization application (although not extremely compute intensive, but it was still an IRIX binary as this particular application does not run on Linux). I'm going to get a loaner to further test with different IRIX-only applications... I am still questionning the reasoning behind an IA64 desktop as I don't think there are that many desktop type of applications that support IA64, so we might end up running Open Office for IRIX through the x-lator
I think a better solution for my needs is an Altix and other deskopts (Tezro maybe, or dual 600 Octane2)...

Your directory structure didn't turn out like mine.
In your projects directory, you have "setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu", whereas I have "setiathome.berkeley.edu"
As I understand things, that folder should reflect the URL of the project that it is attaching to, so I'm wondering how your's got a different name?
Not that it matters, your's seems to work, mine keeps throwing client errors. Maybe if it ever gets a work unit without an error I'll get the ssl directory.

External SCSI Yamaha 8/4/24 for me, works like a charm! The CD burner that is as the cdwriter application doesn't seem to find (or look for?) any devices...
I also had to create $HOME/.cdwriter manually...
Also, the one I downloaded is not fully IRIXified like the snapshot on the download page: the check boxes are not the usual IRIX red check mark...

That's right, it's not picking anything... The cdrecord -scanbus returns (actually, the sgi freeware cdrecord is not returning anything, this one is from dev toolbox):

Yeah, what happened to that? Any progress??
I don't think it got anywhere, there were about 100 people who were willing to pay at least $50 for a hobbyist license. Several *(myself included) suggested upping the price, and doing it sortof on a "yearly" basis. (pay for that year, get the upgrades for that year)
I remember that it seemed close, because the person who started the thread (or who posted something and caused somebody else, like Diego, to start the thread) had actually been in contact with SGI people (lawyers, irix engineers, I'm not sure who it was), who had said that they were giving the idea of hobbyist licensing some consideration.
Though, I think that in order for SGI to really want to consider hobbyist licencing... some hobbyists need to buy boxes from them. For that to happen, the boxes need to be cheaper... and that's probably not really going to happen.
You know, I could talk all day to my sgi sales rep or marketing folks about a hobbyist IRIX and they will listen to me, they'll even pretend they're interested... The fact that they don't punch me in the face for talking about hobbyist IRIX doesn't mean it is happening. Sales is about being slippery and avoiding confrontation...
On the other hand, when I talk to folks from sgi I've worked with and known for years (i.e. no business on the table), the H word always makes them laugh... Support contracts are not that expensive, even though far from $10/month...
I'm not saying I would be against a looser licensing of IRIX for hobbyist. Heck, I am pretty impressed by how easy it was to obtain Solaris 10 (less than $17 for the DVD from Sun!), but I would not set my expectations too high. It's not because 100 people who can each invest $100 in sgi stuff want it that sgi sees anything in it for them and is willing to spend 10-20 times the return to make it happen.
Just to compare, try this: just walk to your closest BMW dealership and tell them you want to lease an 850i for $45/month with no downpayment, call it the hobbyist BMW contract... If they laugh at you (oh they will), just make a fuss: "but I waaaaaaant it". I bet you'll be kicked out of the lot very quickly.
sgi is about making money because they have investors. They are blowing their IP, shooting MIPS & IRIX by following the Linux trend, but that's just because that's what the investors want to hear. I can tell you that nobody at sgi thinks Linux is superior to IRIX, believe me...
And no, skippy running mozilla on a 3MHz machine drawing 1700W/h in his basement is not the salvation for sgi...
Sometimes people seem to hear and believe only what they want to hear or believe... Sometimes people also want to make believe they're more important or "connected" than they are... A sales rep (or sales manager for that matter) talking to you is not you being connected, it's you being sold to...
Just don't hold your breath on the hopes of a service contract at $150/y because the sgi sales rep (or local all things sgi emperor, add whatever pompous title you want to make both parties look important) didn't spit in Joe Blow's face for mentionning hobbyist IRIX and his still calling him by the end of every quarter...
Companies like sgi or IBM make most of their margin selling services contracts, not selling hardware. The hardware is what get them in the door...
Columbia wasn't a great hardware sales victory, it was a great PR and services contract victory.
So, if you get a half-assed sgi machine on ebay for $50 and are willing to invest a whole $10/month to get IRIX, where is sgi going to get his money back in services from you?

I guess I fail to understand why you'd like toolchest to source the system-wide chestrc and then source your auxchestrc to remove some entries... Wouldn't it make more sense to use .chestrc to do it all in the first place? Just my two cents...

It's one that was in one of the Sunblade 1000... It's laying horizontally in the SB1K, but so are the PCI cards too...TeeTylerToe wrote: unixmuseum, is that elite3d M6 horizontal, or vertical (horizontal UPA like sbus, or vertical UPA like PCI/AGP?) as I'd like to add that to my ultra 2
Here's what the inside of the SB1K looks like:
I tried to use Xnest on Sun, and it doesn't work either... It used to work in 256 colors, but nothing goes except Xnesting to my own machine as a different user... If all you want is log into the other machine, you can always run XDCMP chooser off the GDM login window...sum][one wrote: ... ok I must definetly be asking silly questions... or nobody here uses Linux.
I'll try to figure it out how to remotely login via Xdm...
cheers.
The manuals are installed with IRIX, or can be installed (it is a default install)...robD wrote: Ack! Just my luck!
I buy myself an Octane2, I try and get into techpubs to get a copy of the Octane User Manual.... and it's down
Anyone got a copy mirrored anywhere?

). Played against Yari back in the days in rival clubs in "espoir" league, when we were young... Obviously he had a career and I didn't... But he doesn't work on cool engineering stuff, there you have it
One thing for sure: USA and Germany are going down... USA probably won't make it to the second round... You can tell because after the big build-up hype of the last four years and the fake FIFA #4 ranking, they realized that their ass is going to get kicked very hard. What's the reaction? The US media is now trashing soccer: King GW sends "warnings about the world cup", TV & Radio are now blasting "soccer fans are racists" BS, portraying swastika-wearers and bananna-throwing degenerates as the typical soccer fan...
I guess things would be very different if Nike had won the WC supply contract (good luck in Germany) and if the US team didn't suck ass. Although they think they're great, just like the Galaxy thought they did great against Real Madrid last year
The US "great WC qualification round" has as much value as Germany beating Luxembourg 7:0...
England, France and Italy are looking pretty good... I'm thinking Italy will do it this time, although England seems pretty serious... This is a European WC, none of that Brazil or Argentina nonsense, please!
I know what I'm doing Friday: taking the day off
BTW, here's the TV schedule for the US: http://msn.foxsports.com/name/public/FS ... cheduleENG
Let's pray that we won't have to suffer commercial breaks every 10 minutes!
What? You're part Italian, aren't you? FORZA ITALIA!GeneratriX wrote:unixmuseum wrote: This is a European WC, none of that Brazil or Argentina nonsense, please!
BTW Diego, since you love the O2 so much, support my team and get yourself an Arsenal jersey:
True, not very exciting besides the fact that it's the opening game, it's a question of principleOskar45 wrote: Heh - why waste Friday
Yeah, this would be better games for sure, but then again, I have quite a few days of vacation saved for the occasionOskar45 wrote: better save your day for another occasion - eg, in the second round we might easily have Brazil-Italy, Germany-England, Argentina-Portugal or France-Spain
