As SGI hardware ages you are less and less likely to want to run your systems with the original graphics hardware especially if that hardware is only 8-bit or perhaps the hardware is a server (without graphics). This page will demonstrate how to get the most out of your SGI by running a full X session from another, better equipped, workstation. I'm using a SGI Indy as my example but most of this will apply to any class of older SGI computer with only minor variations in the setup.
