Thanks, I'm glad it worked for you!  I'm still not sure of the status of
X for sgimips (it should be shared with the other BE mips platforms),
but I'm glad as much as you tested works for you.

Good!  There was an issue I had with the ECOFF bootloader (it was not being
recognized on my old Indigo2), but I don't think that was your issue, and
anyway it should be fixed in 1.6_RC1.
