Timothy, well spotted. Good to know you read the release notes carefully before
installing, but then doesn't everyone ? :-)

That is a typo, you *can* install 1696 on 6.2 and any subsequent OS, see below
more detailed info on 1696.

Jean,

1696 can be used to upgrade the eoe portion of Performer 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, or
2.0.3 to the level of 2.0.4.

This execution environment (eoe) includes upgrade DSOs for Performer 2.0 as
well as a 2.1.2 subsystem to upgrade DSOs for Performer 2.1.

The latest dev environment for those not using pf 2.1 is 2.0.2 which is patch
1392. In brief then you'd want something like:

On iR, pf 2.1 + patch 1696 ( 2.1 dsos )
On non-iR, pf 2.0 + patch 1696 + 1392

It should filter through to the online patches soon, let me know if not. In the
meantime you can log a support call with your local SGI office and they'll
supply it for you.

Cheers
Rob
