I fired up the Indy last night using the latest sound kernel and played an .mp3 file using mpg123. One thing I noticed was the absence of the occasional skips I've experienced in recent years playing CDs under IRIX 6.2. I don't know if this can be attributed to a larger OS or my '94-vintage single-speed SGI-enabled CD drive, but it's not something I recall happening under IRIX 5.2. (I guess 5.2 was less taxing on 32 M RAM.) In an aside, Tux displays brilliantly at bootup on my 8-bit Newport. Regards, Mike
