Hi Allan,
I did try to download performer through supportfolio last year for quite a
few times, but all I got after clicking the green circle icon (SGI OpenGL
Performer 3.2.2 for Windows) was a blank new window, whose address is
https://support.sgi.com/content_request/861668/index.html. However, it
looked all right to download PF 3.2.2 for Linux-RPM format. So now, it seems
not my problem. Anybody have difficuty like me?
Thanks!
Rui
