[rescue] argh, what did I do? (Onyx)

Tue Jan 14 10:48:25 CST 2003

Hi,

I'll answer all of your questions in one mail.

First of all, the onyx has:
4 100 MHZ IP19 Processors
CPU: MIPS R4400 Processor Chip Revision: 5.0
FPU: MIPS R4000 Floating Point Coprocessor Revision: 0.0
Main memory size: 64 Mbytes, 1-way interleaved
[..]
RealityEngineII Graphics Pipe 0 at IO Slot 11 Physical Adapter 2 (Fchip rev 2)  
RealityEngineII Graphics Pipe 1 at IO Slot 9 Physical Adapter 5 (Fchip rev 2)   
Integral Ethernet controller: et0, Ebus slot 11
I/O board, Ebus slot 11: IO4 revision 1
I/O board, Ebus slot 9: IO4 revision 1
Multi-Channel Option board installed
Multi-Channel Option board installed

So, those are RealityEngineII's, and it's not 2 boards but 2 pipes.

Hm.. I really don't want to invest in it.. Anyway not as long as I
haven't got the spae nor the correct power outlet.

I don't know. 380 is 3 phase, indeed. I'd have to check. But then again,
if I manage to get it to run on 220V which we have here, I wouldn't be
able to turn it on during the day as that would make life in the office
impossible.

Very good Francisco :-) 'friet' is also a Dutch word.

They had a lot of SGIs over there, lots of indys, O2s, some challenges.
They will all be replaced with PCs. As I said before, the biggest
graphics requirements were for real-time simulations, and that's where
they used the two Onyxes and are now using the Onyx2.
