2020 IRIXNetwork Wiki Improvements
Hey guys,

So I'm aware we need more info on the wiki. Along with general usability and look/feel improvements, what exactly do you want us to add information on?

I'm the system admin of this site. Private security technician, licensed locksmith, hack of a c developer and vintage computer enthusiast. 

https://contrib.irixnet.org/raion/ -- contributions and pieces that I'm working on currently. 

https://codeberg.org/SolusRaion -- Code repos I control

Technical problems should be sent my way.

Looking at the Emulation section of the Wiki, I think that it should be mentioned that for the Indy in MAME that the graphics are now reduced to 1024x768 by default. The defaults here cause severe graphical glitches where half the screen gets shifted up or down and it makes login and desktop usage impossible. The command at the PROM console to fix it is "setenv monitor h" which sets the display mode to 1280x1024.

As for the Wiki itself, the color scheme could use some work.

The wiki itself is likely to get a makeover soon.

As for the emulation section, it's kind of hard for me to write for emulation when I'm not the primary customer. If you're volunteering though, make an account and I'll see your ACL so you can update it, unless you have line-by-line corrections I can make. It's not so much laziness as being ignorant of how MAME works.
