I've tested with a normal PCI gfx without any luck. Looks like no signal is sent to the "external" PCI graphics card. And I don't know if there are any options that has to be changed to activate a external graphics card on SGIs since I don't even get the bootup screen when I power on the computer. Anyone who have had a external _normal_ 32bit PCI card working on R12000? pefo mentioned that he didn't know of support for any external pci graphics on SGIs, (but..) there still might be a workaround. /bkw
