Patches

All O2 systems purchased after September, 1996 have been pre-installed with IRIX 6.3, a suite of bundled desktop applications from the IRIX 6.3 Applications CD, and additional software depending on the particular software bundle you purchased (for example, WebFORCE or Modeler). For the November release, there are currently no patches on the IRIX 6.3 Applications CD. O2 WebFORCE bundles have one important patch for Performance Co-Pilot pre-installed, Patch 1578. The patch is also available on the WebFORCE November 1996 CD.

Occasionally we discover a critical need for a patch after this documentation is finalized and after the CD's are complete. In these cases, we install the patch on your system drive from the factory, and make the patch available for installation from the Download Cool Software page on Silicon Surf.
