Either there is a bug here or I am dumb.

the machine I am sitting in front of is a deskside Onyx II (that is what
the cover says anyway)

/vol1/VEL/ramey/vGeo>hinv
2 250 MHZ IP27 Processors
CPU: MIPS R10000 Processor Chip Revision: 3.4

Secondary unified instruction/data cache size: 4 Mbytes
Integral SCSI controller 0: Version QL1040B (rev. 2), single ended

and

/vol1/VEL/ramey/vGeo>/usr/gfx/gfxinfo
Graphics board 0 is "KONAL" graphics.
        Managed (":0.0") 1280x1024
        Display has 2 channels
        2 GEs (of 2), occmask = 0x03
        4MB external BEF ram, 32bit path
        1 RM8 board (of 1) 1/0/0/0
        Texture Memory: 64MB/-/-/-
        Small pixel depth
        32K cmap
        Channel 0:
         Origin = (0,0)
         Video Output: 1280 pixels, 1024 lines, 72.00Hz
(1280x1024_72.vfo)

So why when I run my performer app and call pfGetMachString does it
return:

IR

and when I run it on an Impact (set display back to my trusty deskside
OnyxII)

IRL

In all reality I expected the IRL the first time around.
What the Heck is "KONAL" graphics and why does my ONYX II rack mounted
super powered IR have the same exact values from gfx info.

BTW the super powered rack mounted IR machine returns (run locally)

IRL

and an impact in our lab returns (run locally)

EXTREME (which I expect)
