Looks pretty nice, em ! I believe to get the photos into the gallery you ftp them up. Then neko puts them into a gallery manually.
Thanks for clearing that up. I was a bit confused by the option for registration, but I guess that's to be able to post comments.

What version of Irix are you running ?
At the moment
IRIX 6.5.26, but I intend on updating to 6.5.28. Although, I must say, I'm rather satisfied with .26 at the moment. Ian (Mapleson) was kind enough put it on a SCSI HDD I ordered from him.

The "Fabric Disk" is actually a firewire disk and used to show up the same as yours. I'm reluctantly using 6.5.30, not sure when the reporting blew up. The firewire disk is definitely not on Integral SCSI controller 1. Neither is the firewire CF card reader. The CD-ROM is.
Hoping it's just a reporting issue and not a symptom of something truly fubar. Not sure what changed it or when 
I see what you mean. But, does the media
work? I'm still messing around with my
Maxtor OneTouch external FW-HDD enclosure (with a non-original HDD in it, since it died... like many of these particular drives; the enclosure itself is very nice actually). Anyway, no luck so far. Although, I won't give up

Okay, understood. Thanks for letting me know, I'm still somewhat new here. On that same note, I have to say, this is a great forum! In fact, so far the best I've ever been on in a long while (since
od[force]). Great community.

He, a Tezro in NL
Where does it come from? Most Tezros were Discreet stations but this one doesn't have the usual digital media or fibre channel options.
I want a Tezro
I managed to buy it rather
bare, with no internal DVD-drive and such. I believe it did come from a studio indeed, like the vast majority of these amazing systems, and of course stripped of all its additional expansions and options (FC/SCSI controllers, VBOB and so on). Besides, the
DM2-5 range is barely of any use to an individual anyway. It's not like I have matching broadcasting equipment here. At the moment I don't even have room for an output monitor. By the way, since you said
‘were,’ I hear they're still being used on quite some scale (I know at least one facility in Amsterdam that still uses at least one of them, as their
Flame suite). I guess this is a contributing factor as to why they're not very common still on places like
eBay. The same thing could be said of the
VPro-based
Octane2 systems and even the
Fuel series, although to a lesser degree. In fact, I heard that even the old
Octane is used on a certain scale. It reportedly still does well, I presume for non-HD or generally non-broadcast work. Although, that'll probably change real soon in 2009, with the whole HD standardization over in the USA...
As for fibre channel, I'm not that rich!
But, I might invest on it in the future. Not before a 4×1GHz CPU
‘update’ though, but who knows. Actually, to bring up the earlier
DM10 (and its issues), which I specially got since I was planning on using some of my older IDE-ATA HDDs via
FireWire. Although, as I said, without any luck so far. For the rest, and performance-wise, I have pretty capable SCSI drives (15K and 10K RPM respectively, in the internal bays).
