hi,
no, we have kept everything plain vanilla, just as it
came in the box. Thanks for the tip about not using
the standard drivers, tho. Our linux guys are real
do-it-yourselfer's (surprise, surprise) and download
the newest drivers ASAP. Our problem was there from
the first time the SGI tech got cfly running on all
nodes. Simple things like "where do I put the license.dat
file" should be on the short list of setup procedures.

That's a good point...if you've installed any graphics driver of your own,
that would do a lot to explain the problems you're seeing. The
graphics driver shipped with the systems works with multiprocessing
unlike the newer drivers currently on NVidia's website. The graphics driver
version that came with your system is 1.0-1420. Please consult support
before changing the driver on your system.
Again, please continue to work with us through the support channels.
thanks,
tom
