  1. FP? Silly me by Wierd+Willy · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I have been trying for several days to download the ISO's on the MIPS version of Debian. My main irritaton with this is the fact that the FTP keeps timing out. I have an SGI Indy IP22 r4400 and am curious about what else I can do with this. What will run on it?? What kind of device drivers are available and will it run a cool desktop like Ximian? Any help here without obfuscation would be of a great service to me.
