IRIX 6.3 was released for the SGI O2 workstation only. [7] IRIX 6.4 improved multiprocessor scalability for the Octane, Origin 2000, and Onyx2 systems. The Origin 2000 and Onyx2 IRIX 6.4 was marketed as "Cellular IRIX", although it only incorporates some features from the original Cellular IRIX distributed operating system project. [9] [10]
The SGI Octane with IMPACT-class graphics was first supported by IRIX version 6.4. VPro-class graphics have been supported since IRIX version 6.5.10 for V6 and V8, with V10 and V12 graphics supported as of 6.5.11 (or 6.5.10 with a special driver patch). Linux and OpenBSD have had support.
This is a category of articles relating to software for the Silicon Graphics IRIX operating system It includes IRIX exclusive software, emulators and software that also runs on other platforms. It does not include software that only runs in emulation or virtualization.
It was developed and manufactured by SGI, and introduced in 1996 to succeed the Onyx. Onyx2 architecture is based on Origin 2000 server plus graphics hardware. In 2000, the Onyx2 was succeeded by the Onyx 3000, and it was discontinued on June 27, 2003. These systems run either IRIX 6.4 or 6.5.
Indy was launched with the IRIX 5.1 operating system, [1] by which it is binary-compatible across the entire SGI family. [1] [3] 5.1 does not take full advantage of the hardware due to inadequate memory management. Later in 1993, SGI increased the base specification to 32 MB. IRIX 5.2 and later have much more efficient memory usage. [3]
IRIX Interactive Desktop (formerly called Indigo Magic Desktop) is a discontinued desktop environment normally used as the default desktop on Silicon Graphics workstations running IRIX. The IRIX Interactive Desktop uses the Motif widget toolkit on top of the X Window System found on most Unix systems.
The Onyx's basic system architecture is based on the SGI Challenge servers, but with graphics hardware. The Onyx was employed in early 1995 for development kits used to produce software for the Nintendo 64 and, because the technology was so new, the Onyx was noted as the major factor for the impressively high price of US$100,000 [ 1 ] – US ...
