Hi

I've been recommending to customers that **All Indigo2 Impact machines should
have this minimum software configuration**

Operating System: IRIX 5.3 for All Indigo2 All IMPACT
( to check this, versions -n eoe1.sw.unix should show 1022585737 )

Software patches: 1223, 1271, 1157 plus kernel rollup patch 1268

Get these patches from your local SGI support office or
 ftp-europe.sgi.com:/private/reading/

As far as I know the fixes in the above patches are in Irix 6.2, I know people
are run 6.2 on Impacts successfully although I don't which veriosns of Vega is
for 6.2. Also rendering with OpenGL will be better on Impact.

Cheers
Rob
