Tezro Workstation + Rackmount IRIX kernel request - TruHobbyist - 10-31-2022

After having analyzed my fair share of kernel code I realized there are some important code differences between the different architectures.

Since I have no access to a Tezro myself, I would like to kindly ask someone with a Tezro for a copy of the kernel file (/unix). My interest lies in analyzing some parts of it to get a deeper understanding on how some things work.

The distinction between workstation and rackmount is important: the rackmount version can drive up to 4 heads but the workstation only 2, for example. Kernel code should give me some insights into this.

Thanks!

Tru

Workstation can only use one, actually. But I bet that's an artificial restraint. Maybe you could look into that, a dual head deskside tez would be almost perfect.
