All the R4x00 CPU's can have a maximum of 128MB/bank (4*32MB SIMM's) or 384MB total. The R8000 & R10000 CPU machines can have a maximum of 256MB/bank (4*64MB SIMM's) or 768MB. Some SGI engineers have said that one can put a maximum of two 256MB banks in these machines, because of cooling requirements. This would limit an Indigo2 to 640MB. I've two reports that 768MB works fine in an Indigo2 R10000 (3*256MB). The following URL shows where people have installed and used 1GB of memory in R10000 Indigo2's. http://www.futuretech.vuurwerk.nl/i2gigaram.html *** Graphics *** ** Original Teal ** Option GEs REs Notes XL 0 1 No z-buffer, no geometry engine XZ 2 1 XZ Elan 4 1 Extreme 8 2 Command Processor: HQ2 Geometry Engine: GE7 Raster Engine: RE3 ** Purple ** Option GEs REs Texture Notes SolidImpact 1 1 none HighImpact 1 1 1 1MB/4MB TRAM HighImpact AA 2 1 1 1MB/4MB TRAM MaximumImpact 2 2 2 1MB/4MB TRAM Command Processor: HQ3 Geometry Engine: GE11 Raster Engine: RE4 Impact is not supported on Power Indigo 2 systems with R8000!

From http://www.futuretech.blinkenlights.nl/pinouts.html ?For teal Indigo2 systems which have an Indigo2Video board and CosmoCompress installed, there should be a cable that connects the two boards together, linking the two IndyCam-type ports that are vertically adjacent. Unfortunately, this cable is often lost, so what do you do if you find the boards but don't have the cable? The solution is to utilise two ordinary IndyCams, hacking the cables and wiring them together - obviously, it would be best to find two IndyCams that are non-functional but which still have intact cables and connectors. An original Cosmo connector cable is very short, just 45cm (approx. 18?) long, and is quite thick, presumably heavily shielded. Thus, I can't say for sure how good a cable made using two IndyCam cables would be - it depends on whether all the pins inside the IndyCam cable's connector are used. What I can say is how a genuine Cosmo cable is wired up, which is as follows: Looking face-on at the two IndyCam-type connectors, held the same way up, the pin connections are a vertical mirror image across the two plugs. Thus, the top-left pin on one plug connects to the bottom-left pin of the other plug. Similarly, counting rows from the top and columns from the left, the pin at row 2 column 7 of one plug connects to row 3 column 7 of the other plug, while row 1 column 12 connects to row 4 column 12. The column numbers stay the same, but the row numbers are mirrored: row 1 connects to row 4, row 2 to row 3, row 3 to 2 and 4 to 1. I don't know if all the connections are necessary, but that is how an original Cosmo cable is internally wired. NOTE: on the Cosmo cable I have, the connector which goes into the CosmoCompress board's socket has an iconic picture of a video camera on it. Since the cable is basically just a vertical pin-for-pin swapover cable, I doubt it matters which end is connected to which board, but this fact should at least help in identification of the correct kind of cable. There is also what appears to be a part number on the cable, namely 018-8217-001.? LFH60 cable Cisco crossover cables don't look likely to work. not all pins are connected normally, so unlikely that all pins are actually wired either way, the crossover is not a straight mirror image as required by the Cosmo ?

To my knowledge, this is the only SGI platform on which you can do this. By setting the ?boottune? PROM variable to a number from 0 to 6, you can choose a particular setting. 0 is ?random setting?, which causes the machine to play a random selection from the available boot tunes.? http://forums.nekochan.net/viewtopic.php?t=549&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15 *** Part Numbers *** partnum name description 013-8682-XXX 3.5?
