I've been looking to resolve a problem with os for an old SGI Challenge 
machine. To make a long story short,  I've been looking to turn the machine 
into a gaming server (weird, I know.) Irix doesn't have a lot of gaming 
support. So I started searching for a Linux flavor that would work. (Almost 
every new game published has a Linux version. ) I'm not too up to date on this 
breed of SGI and I know very (very, very!) little about linux. (other than that 
it's another -ix operating system and it falls under the Linux open source 
thing, unlike irix, and that makes it free. That's pretty important in this 
scenario.) I'm fairly die-hard and prepared to learn Linux. However, I need to 
know if this is even possible. I've hung around this list for a bit and seen a 
lot of Sparc and SGI Indy posts. Does Debian support the challenge mips chips? 
Where do I actually start for information? (debian.org didn't have very much 
information on this subject.) Can this turkey actually fly? I really appreciate 
any input that you guys could give me. Thanks for your time.
