Hi everyone,

I just finally got re-registered after my old Irix.cc login no longer worked.  Real life has been busy since 2015 and I never really got around to searching for a new SGI community again after the demise of Nekochan.  For a while I was discouraged because my Onyx2 developed some hardware problems and all of the content from Nekochan seemed lost.  Recently my kids have gotten older and I've had more free time.  I got interested in my SGI machines again so I troubleshot and repaired my Onyx2, and am using my machines frequently again for various minor projects and play networked games with my daughter.  That inspired me to look for discussion groups again and I eventually found my way here and was happy to see so many names familiar to me from Nekochan!

Anyway, not sure if any of you remember me (I was never a voluminous poster) but I am happy to have found y'all again!

I actually registered on this forum in early October, but was caught in the registration bug that Raion just fixed.  I saw a post about it on reddit today so re-registered and now I can post again!  I had been forced to just lurk for the past couple of months.

In the spirit of archiving information can you give us more information on the Onyx2 problem you had and how you fixed it?
