- SGI pointer Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
- This is one of the Silicon Graphics FAQ series, which consists of:
-
- SGI admin FAQ - IRIX system administration
- SGI apps FAQ - Applications & compilers
- SGI graphics FAQ - Graphics and user environment customization
- SGI hardware FAQ - Hardware
- SGI misc FAQ - Introduction & miscellaneous information
- SGI performer FAQ - IRIS Performer
- SGI pointer FAQ - Pointer to the other FAQs
-
- Read the misc FAQ for information about the FAQs themselves. Each FAQ
- is posted to comp.sys.sgi.misc and to the news.answers and comp.answers
- newsgroups (whose purpose is to store FAQs) twice per month. If you
- can't find one of the FAQs with your news program, you can get it by
- anonymous FTP from one of these sites:
-
- rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/usenet/comp.sys.sgi.misc/
- rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/usenet/news.answers/sgi/faq/
- rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/usenet/comp.answers/sgi/faq/
- viz.tamu.edu:/pub/sgi/faq/
-
- Note that rtfm.mit.edu is home to many other FAQs and informational
- documents, and is a good place to look if you can't find an answer
- here. If you can't use FTP, send mail to mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu with
- the command 'send usenet/news.answers/ftp-list/faq' on a line by itself
- in the text, and it will send you a document describing how to FTP by
- mail. You can also read a hypertext version of the FAQs at
-
- http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/sgi/top.html
-
- The SGI FAQs are freely distributable and wide circulation is encouraged.
- The contents are accurate as far as we know, but the usual disclaimers
- apply. Please send additions and changes to sgi-faq@viz.tamu.edu.

- If you're reading this on Usenet, the latest edition of the SGI FAQs
- has just been reposted to comp.sys.sgi.misc, comp.answers and
- news.answers. (Because the comp.sys.sgi.* groups are gatewayed to
- mailing lists which don't deal with crossposts, we only post the SGI
- FAQs to one of them.) If you're reading this somewhere else, the other
- FAQs should be nearby. If they aren't, the introduction describes
- several places where you can find them.
