Two releases for the SGI ago, I had a weird problem where I was unable to 
set my backdrop any longer.  I also lost the window placement and standard 
apps memory.

Craig figured out what it had been, and fixed it in a later release.

It's back.  :-(

My machine is a little different:

Iris Audio Processor: version A2 revision 4.1.0
1 180 MHZ IP22 Processor
FPU: MIPS R4000 Floating Point Coprocessor Revision: 0.0
CPU: MIPS R4400 Processor Chip Revision: 6.0
On-board serial ports: 2
On-board bi-directional parallel port
Data cache size: 16 Kbytes
Instruction cache size: 16 Kbytes
Secondary unified instruction/data cache size: 1 Mbyte
Main memory size: 64 Mbytes
Integral ISDN: Basic Rate Interface unit 0, revision 1.0
Integral Ethernet: ec0, version 1
Integral SCSI controller 0: Version WD33C93B, revision D
CDROM: unit 4 on SCSI controller 0
Disk drive: unit 3 on SCSI controller 0
Disk drive / removable media: unit 2 on SCSI controller 0
Disk drive: unit 1 on SCSI controller 0
Graphics board: GR3-XZ
Vino video: unit 0, revision 0, IndyCam connected

Since I'm now stuck on a particularly disturbing 'pink puke' backdrop, can 
we fix this or let me go back to an earlier release?

Imagine a picture of a throbbing headache, in pink & grey...

Thanks.
