You want real performance? Try running Mozilla for
Win 95 under Irix SoftWindows 95.
On an R5k-180 O2. That baby _smokes_ !
I installed and played warcraft2, although it turns out its rather
unplayable :( ...well, its mostly unplayable because the dos-mode mouse
doesnt seem to work correctly, and its slow....real slow..
I happened to have the media for SoftWindows95 version 1
and I thought I should try it with this license but I didn't manage
to get it running. It says it can't get a valid license.
My system is Indigo2 R10K with IRIX6.5.16 and I used the
default installation selection.
The manual says that I should select to install everything
but I didn't install any patches as I assumed they where only
usefull with IRIX6.2.Softwindows dates back to 1996-1997
Can the serial number and authorization codes be extracted
from the above license?
sn=5100 0100 0000 0001 (?),
auth=ECE41259D5BE4700DC27 (?)
Didn't work
I also tried to copy the above informations into license.dat in
the flexlm catalogue and it is 'believed to be good:cannot verify'
Didn't work
Any hints from you who did get it working? Maybe it's simply
not working with IRIX6.5.X at all. I need IRIX6.2?
regards
Bjorn
I think this will only work with softwindows95 version4 and version5
The "4.000" in the first line looks a lot like a version
number. You could perhaps try changing that to match the
version you have.

As an administrator of ProEngineer at work I have noticed
that the ProE flexlm licenses are backward compatible. I can
for example run ProE20 on my ProE2001 (v23) licenses. I
hoped this license would work the same way.
Thanks anyway. I can try what you suggest.
Otherwise...does anyone know if newer version is
downloadable anywhere ;-)
Santa Claus posted a complete SW95 licence (any host) recently on the sgi
groups, have a look on google...

Thank you very much SkyWriter, that did the trick.
It's up and running :)
any suggestions where I could get softwindows95? i had no luck on ebay
so far :-(
cheers
always happy to help! have fun!
me again: before I posted with a wrong email-address. the correct one is
tarz...@gmx.ch
...I would really really like to buy media of softwindows 95 (for a
resonable price)...
Umm, you can't run v20 on a 2000i node-locked license.
Maybe flexlm is different ?
I can and do frequently. Of course ptc uses its "own" flexlm.

if the actual media is unavailable, is it on any HotMix cd that we can
use the license for full use?
-Mike
I used to have HotMix 6 and 9 up to 19 and the only products I found
(on HotMix 6 and 9, IIRC) were SoftWindows 1.25 and SoftPC 3.02 (the
prequel to SoftWindows). Both are useless for this licence.
